officeglenn Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 (edited) I guess this is as good a place as any for this ... Sotheby's is going to auction off the shirt in which Diego Maradona scored the "Hand of God" goal and the "Goal of the Century" later this month. It's expected to fetch at least £4 million ($5.22 million US), and could break the record for the most expensive piece of sports memorabilia ever. That currently belongs to a New York Yankees jersey worn by Babe Ruth somewhere between 1928 and 1930, which sold at auction for $5.64 million US in June 2019. More details and history at the mothership. Edited April 7, 2022 by officeglenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Spain (sky blue) and Scotland wearing their Euro 2022 kits tonight. All adidas teams will have the badge in the center with numbers below. Canada women wearing gold numbers for their Olympics Celebration Tour vs Nigeria. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Yellow trim for Scotland looks really odd. I'd have confused them for Sweden. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a Spanish alternate uniform for a second, then realized the Spanish went with the light blue kits this year. Northern Ireland's Euros kit. England still wearing their World Cup home kit from 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Full adidas jersey layout for teams playing in the Euros: Belgium Germany Northern Ireland Spain Sweden So all of the adidas teams appear to wear the same away kit, just in different colors. That's pretty underwhelming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who really knows whether it's the exact one worn or or worn when that fist goal happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who really knows whether it's the exact one worn or or worn when that fist goal happened. They reportedly switched to lighter jerseys that were not made by Le Coq Sportif. They then cut the badges and sponsor logo and stitched them on the other shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've had an outside firm photomatch it to what he was wearing in the second half. Regardless, there's been a bid and the reserve has been met, so it's selling one way or the other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 The 'Hand of God' shirt auction closed at 11:01 a.m. ET today: Beats out an original handwritten Olympic manifesto that sold for $8.8 million US in December 2019 and a Babe Ruth Yankees jersey from the late 1920s that sold for $5.64 million US in June 2019. Here's my writeup for the mothership, where I'm adding more details as I find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if they had been on the same horizontal plane, it would’ve been too cluttered. Having them arranged like this looks very balanced. This is a really nice kit. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GriffinM6 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Errea also released kits for smaller UEFA federations today. https://www.footyheadlines.com/2022/05/errea-2022-uefa-national-team-kits.html Love that they didn't just go with a bunch of stock designs and actually made each kit unique to every country. BTW, should we start a 2022/23 thread for this and move some posts to said thread? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
