11 things we loved this weekend: Aubameyang, Lucas, Zidane & more
Something tells us we might not be adjusting to life under lockdown as well as we hoped, given we spent the weekend looking around frantically for highlights from the Belarusian Premier League.
Belarus is the only country in Europe where professional football is still being played, and the competition is providing the football fix supporters are craving around the world.
We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the pitch.
William Thor Willumson
Football!!!
Ivan Bakhar
We’ve always said the Belarusian league is where it’s at.
Yury Kendysh
A failed panenka with ball boys laughing at the penalty taker? We told you the Belarusian league is where it’s at.
Gega Diasamidze
Is this their equivalent to Jack Wilshere’s goal against Norwich City?
Dzmitry Padstrelaw
Get your counter-attack fix here.
Manchester City
Lovely stuff.
Manchester City have signed over the use of the Etihad Stadium to the NHS to use it however they need in the ongoing fight against the coronavirus.

Only on Reddit can you get a thread and correlation of data on Zinedine Zidane's hair loss and performance on the pitch. 🤣 https://t.co/DdlIunThWH pic.twitter.com/QnVFuaYXJp
