Just hopping on here to say that I think this working theory resonates. Different context but it *feels* right for Spain rn, which I experience as an outsider tbf but family of my gf, her friends and wider network...this feels relevant explanation there too...

I think this is especially funny in current EU fixation of the Sovereign shed in Virgina, or should I say sovereign shed in Strasbourg maybe more fitting...

Imho it's been noteworthy how much more Germany have had to defend since Hoffman subbed off. Also have the impression for whatever reason she was the 1 Germany player who made the FR defence nervous

That's quicker than in Belgium!

Oh boy do I relate to this. Fortunately WFH and la garderie is open but just a small saving grace.
