To celebrate Germany’s win in the quarter-finals, I thought it would be fun to post a few Fussball-related items.
The following 2 were found via QBN:

Steve Rura created an awesome collection of T-shirts for Nike representing each country that qualified for Euro 2008. I LOVE the German one, and thought that the collection overall looks great.
