Game over for most soccer clubs in Europe, but not National League Globe_Sports

While the sports world grinds to a halt in almost every country, one soccer league in England is defiantly carrying on.

“It’s nuts,” said Steve Timberlake as he sipped a beer and watched players warm up. Timberlake said he wasn’t worried about coming in contact with the virus at the stadium but he doubted the league would be able to keep playing much longer. “Probably the last game of the season,” he said. Britain has 1,372 confirmed cases of the disease and 35 people have died. So far the government has taken a gradual approach to the outbreak. Unlike many other European countries, Britain has not banned large public gatherings, closed schools or restricted travel. Health officials have put a priority on ensuring that sick people self-isolate but they have not ruled out taking further measures.

Shortly after the game the team said that its fixture on Monday against Gloucester City had been postponed after several Tigers’ players and staff had gone into isolation with possible coronavirus symptoms.
