Germany Prints Wrong Number on Shorts
- Font Mismatch: Germany's national team wore the home kit font on their jerseys but mistakenly used the away kit font on their shorts during a match.
- Typeface Confusion: The team and their partners, Adidas and 11teamsports, were confused by the different typefaces for the home and away kits.
- Photoshop Fix: The official launch photos of the kit correctly featured the home font on the shorts, indicating the error was not intentional.
For the UEFA Euro 2024, Adidas and German shirt partner 11teamsports created a unique typeface for the German national team. Now, in the debut of the kit, they got confused with the typeface.
Germany Wears Away Numbers on Shorts
Germany has a different typeface for the home and away kits - the home kit typeface has an added 3D effect, while the away typeface comes with a flat design. However, Germany was confused by it.
Germany's players wore the home font both on the front and the back of the shirt, but the away font on the shorts - a small but funny mismatch.
The photoshopped launch picture had the correct numbers for the shorts.
Did you notice that Germany wore the away font on its shorts against France? Let us know in the comments below.

Neymar to Retain Brazil No. 10 Shirt for 2026 World Cup
The debate over Brazil’s most iconic shirt number has been officially settled ahead of the 2026 World Cup. It has been confirmed that Neymar will retain the famous No. 10 jersey for the upcoming tournament in North America.
Following a lengthy period away from the national team due to injury, questions had naturally arisen regarding the future of the prestigious shirt. During Neymar's prolonged absence, the Brazilian No. 10 was shared among the squad's other attacking stars. Both Vinicius Junior and Raphinha have donned the historic number in recent international fixtures.
Despite their growing influence and status within the Seleção, both players have willingly stepped aside out of respect for the veteran forward. Highlighting the squad's unity on the matter, Vinicius Junior openly addressed the situation, stating clearly that the shirt "obviously belongs to Neymar."
Earlier rumors suggested that Neymar might adopt the No. 13 jersey.
Do you agree with the decision to keep Neymar in the No. 10 shirt, or was it time to pass it on to a younger player like Vinicius Junior? Let us know in the comments below.

Liverpool 26-27 Home Kit Water Bottle Released
The official Liverpool FC online store has released an interesting "LFC 26/27 Home Water Bottle".
The design of the water bottle mirrors the home kit. The front of the bottle also displays the Liverbird crest and the current Standard Chartered sponsor logo - however, it lacks the Adidas logo and looks very offset. They should have placed logos differently...
The text "Liverpool FC 26-27" is printed on the bottle in the new official Liverpool font.
