The world of football is coming to a screeching silence. The brash and noisy football fans have quickly faded, perhaps recuperating before they start all over again in a new season.

The elite competition where men thrive is back after more than 150-day hiatus occasioned by Covid-19 resumes this week after the “small boys” have finished playing albeit with a different format.
