This Photo Of World Leaders Watching The Champions League Final Says It All

Politics isn’t totally about selling out your principles in exchange for power. Sometimes, you get to kick back with your fellow leaders of the free world and watch some soccer. This shot of the G8 Summit members at Camp David, watching Chelsea-Bayern Munich, is a candid glimpse into these people as human beings and sports fans.

Pictured here: Barack Obama of the United States, David Cameron of the United Kingdom (and noted Chelsea supporter), Angela Merkel of Germany, José Manuel Barroso of the European Commission, and others reacting to the overtime shootout that determined the winner of the Champions League.

These were reactions typical of each leader’s home country. The U.K.: Hooray! Germany: Schiza. The U.S.: Oh, that’s cool — an actual goal.

We wonder if they were watching the game-winner here?
