Germany Retires "Die Mannschaft" Slogan, Adds "Deutschland" to Kits Instead

In the 2022 World Cup, "Die Mannschaft" still featured on the inner collar of the kits because of the lead time of create and produce the new kits. The production was already started before the DFB decided to scrap "Die Mannschaft" in 2022. However, "Deutschland" was already on the back collar then.
