If you really have football withdrawal syndromes, a Brazilian match is about to kick off at 9 on YouTube: https://youtu.be/kgVvqSdemhA
Flamengo (the Man U of Brazil, winners of the Libertadores last year and who took Liverpool to extra time in the Club World Cup) against a Brazilian 4th division side in the Rio state league at an empty Maracana. There should be goals from their impressive front 3 and Flamengo have been great to watch since appointing a portuguese coach last year, and are very open at the back (even against such poor opposition) since Arsenal bought their main Centre back in January
The AFL season started yesterday, matches taking place behind closed doors.
Traditional season-opener Richmond v Carlton normally attracts 90,000+ to the MCG - yesterday that enormous bowl was empty.
This morning's clash between the Western Bulldogs and Collingwood took place with roof open at the Docklands stadium so that it could be classed as an outdoor gathering meaning more people (club staff and family) could be present.
More matches tomorrow and Sunday, my focus being the West Coast Eagles v Melbourne match on Sunday morning - the only acceptable sport to cheer on Eagles!
I once met a Danish girl on a flight from Copenhagen to Manchester and she told me that she was out drinking with some mates one night and they thought it would be good bants to form a team representing Denmark at the World Kabaddi Championships in India.
I'll occasionally catch the Candidates tournament in Ekaterinburg to see who plays Magnus Carlsen for the World Chess Champion title later this year. It's live streamed with grandmaster commentary.
If it's not your thing, you could always watch some grass grow.

Live on ITV 4, would be great to get a new audience and some new contributors to the snooker thread.
All the details for the event are on the thread below
