Football player Sebastian Gauthier has a coping mechanism. When he gets nervous, just before a game, he puts his hand under his shoulder pad. It then rests in this cave for a moment. “It usually calms me down. It’s my safe place,” he says. Before Gauthier plays for the Frankfurt Galaxy for the first time this season against the Hamburg Sea Devils next weekend, his hand will probably be in this place. He didn’t need it before. But that was before the injuries.
