- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Australian prime minister Scott Morrison accidentally knocked over a schoolboy during a friendly football game in Tasmania.
Footage, shared by 9News Australia, shows Mr Morrison passing the ball, before losing his balance and falling on top of a child.
The incident, which happened during a visit to the Devonport Strikers Soccer Club, is reminiscent of Boris Johnson clattering into a boy during a rugby match in Japan in 2015.
Australians go to the polls on 21 May, for the country’s first election since 2019, where Mr Morrison is hoping for re-election.
