As Boris Johnson once famously proved, the worlds of football and politics are often poles (polls?) apart.
Thankfully, some politicians are more than accomplished with a ball at their feet, as shown here by leader of the Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party, Ruth Davidson.
Having ordered a Hamilton youth coach to act as goalkeeper, Davidson steps up and buries her penalty right in the corner, the ball skimming the side netting as it slides the right side of the post.

Let’s hope the Scottish team are taking tips ahead of the Euros this summer… (sorry).
