    Coronavirus has brought football to a standstill
  • Bundesliga, just like other European domestic leagues, has been on hold since mid-March because of the coronavirus outbreak which has brought football to a standstill.

    Germany has recorded far less deaths as compared to the UK, Italy, Spain and France.

    If the Bundesliga gets off to a positive start, this would bolster the other leagues.

    Things will resume when it's safe to do so.
