[Football] Some German clubs resume (limited) training

[Bozza]

Bayern Munich were among a number of Bundesliga clubs to return to training for the first time since the campaign was halted by the coronavirus pandemic.

The champions trained in groups of five but without any contact, as did Borussia Monchengladbach and Wolfsburg.

Bottom side Paderborn worked in small groups and coach Steffen Baumgart said it was important for players to "get the ball on their feet again".

Germany's top flight has been suspended since 13 March until at least 30 April.

"It was certainly a very unusual feeling holding a training session in small groups today, but it was also nice to see the boys in person again," said Bayern captain Manuel Neuer.

Part of me thinks this is a good news story and we can see light at the end of the tunnel. The other part thinks this is complete madness and setting a poor example to the rest of us in isolation.
Yes the Germans appear to have managed the virus better than most by testing but neighbouring countries are still burying victims by the thousand. I really hope the Germans don't have a double peak.
Maybe I'm just a sensitive soul but this just seems a tad to soon.
