Fist bumps and masks: Professional soccer returns in Germany. MORE:
BERLIN — Germany's Bundesliga soccer season resumed Saturday after a two-month break caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
Pre-game television interviews were conducted with long poles holding microphones and participants keeping their distance. Goal celebrations in other games were also marked by fist bumps and elbow-to-elbow touching. Players had been warned to keep their emotions in check, and to desist from spitting, handshakes and hugging.
“Soccer without fans is nothing,” read a joint statement from several Bayern Munich fan groups after the league decided on May 7 to resume.
