The German Bundesliga Association, DFL, has pressed to be able to play the leagues, Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2, until June 30, and personally got the sign of Chancellor Angela Merkel as late as May 6, only ten days before the restart.

Over the weekend, the team took in hotels, to be quarantined, to meet the security requirements needed to restart the league. In this case, it was a mandatory quarantine of seven days.

There are fears that the decision has gone far too quickly.

"The players had no major influence but were informed after the important decisions had already been made," Union Berlin's Serbian star Neven Subotic told radio channel Deutschlandfunk.

Can make the beds themselves

At the hotels, the players, who had to have mouthguards on arrival, will stay in their own rooms, make the beds themselves and sit scattered at joint gatherings and at meals.

Over the weekend, the entire Bundesliga 2 team Dynamo Dresden's squad, with the Swedes Linus Wahlqvists and Alexander Jeremejeff, sat in a two-week quarantine after three players tested positive for covid-19. As a result, the tough game schedule for the Bundesliga 2 burst.

- We have never thought that the remainder of the season will be trouble-free. These tests and results are a result of our openness, says Borussia Dortmund's CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke to Funke media group.

Bundesliga has played 24 or 25 of 34 innings.
