Football team loses 37-0 in socially distanced match.

AGerman football team lost 37-0 to their local rivals after fielding only seven players who socially distanced throughout the match. Ripdorf fielded the minimum number of players on Sunday because their opponents SV Holdenstedt II came into contact in a previous game with someone who tested positive for Covid-19.

Their team tested negative but Ripdorf said the conditions were not safe. If Ripdorf had not played, they would have faced a €200 (£182) fine. They had asked for the match - in the 11th tier of German football - to be postponed but the local association refused.

You just know some comedian is going to make a video of social distancing WWF wrestling.

Where they exchange nasty glances and looks at each other....or maybe do that Maori dance.

It is sad that this was probably not a stunt or a joke.

They truly earned that loss.
