Improvised parking lots at crossing sites. Soccer players who collect their balls themselves. The job Lodi returns to seems like a dystopia ten days later, but no, it is not, it is reality.
Atlético have already completed with their left side, the only natural of the squad, their fifth training session after the forced stop because of the coronavirus crisis while soccer tries to return to its normality, or to the new normality that is embraced on that date: June 12.
