WITH the men’s Bundesliga divisions one and two having recommenced last weekend, German football is now turning its attention to restarting play in the women’s top-flight and the men’s third division.
In doing so it is setting an example to the rest of Europe, and especially to England.
The DFB (German FA) announced this week that the Women’s Bundesliga and the Women’s DFB-Pokal (FA Cup equivalent) will restart from May 29. The men’s 3 Liga, meanwhile, will resume its 2019/20 season a day later.
