Hertha Berlin's restart in the Bundesliga was a success with the 3-0 victory away to Hoffenheim where all goals fell in the second half.

The most noteworthy, however, was not of a sporting nature.

One of the conditions for kicking off German league football again was that the football players were not allowed to touch their teammates, other than with each other's elbows and feet.

Something that Hertha Berlin player Dedryck Boyata apparently ignored.

In connection with a game break, the Belgian defender appeared to kiss teammate Marko Grujic on the cheek while having his palms wrapped around his head - something that clearly goes against the restrictions that the football team is expected to comply with.

Shortly thereafter, Hertha Berlin scored two quick goals, first when Kevin Akpoguma put the ball into his own net in the 58th minute and then when Vedad Ibisevic increased to 2-0.

However, the final word got Matheus Cunha who set the final goal of the match with the quarter left to play.
