When you look around your office at about 2:45 p.m. today and a few of your coworkers are missing — the ones with the colorful scarves pinned to their cubicles, most likely — now you’ll know why: Manchester United and Manchester City, fierce rivals who happen to be the top two teams in the English Premier League at the moment, are playing a match that could decide the league’s championship.

Bars around Washington are happy to oblige, of course, though we’d expect as many members of the crowd to be clad in shirt-and-tie as a Rooney or Tevez shirt. If you’re looking for an office escape (or trying to track down missing employees) here’s our list of soccer-friendly sports bars where you can expect full-throated chants and free-flowing pints.
