Barack Obama was left with a black eye after being caught up in a late night altercation between Angela Merkel and David Cameron following Chelsea's dramtic win on penalties in the Champions League final.
As Didier Drogba rifled in the winning penalty, Johnny-come-lately true blue Cameron thrust his arms skywards before rounding on Merkel. With his head just inches from Merkel, Cameron launched into a chorus of 'You're not singing anymore' whilst reminding the German leader that 'that's what you get for bombing my Dads chippy, Angie baby'. Merkel tried to hit back but it quckly descended into a playground tussle with neither leader landing a punch. Showing the leadership qualities for which they are renowned, the rest of the G8 stood around the fight uncertain which side to back. President Hollande urged Merkel to 'leave it, he's not worth it' while Russian delegate Dmitry Medvedev filmed the scuffle on his mobile.
Quietly pointing out that she was fed up of Cameron mouthing off again, Merkel lifted her head back a fraction before dropping Cameron with a head butt. As Cameron collapsed clutching his nose, a shocked Obama rushed to intervene, inadvertently copping a punch from Merkel as she turned and stormed out of the room.
Peace has returned to Camp David this morning although aides are rumoured to be reporting that Merkel has threatened: "to do his country's fucking economy big time" in revenge.
