Original Adidas training shirt Germany 90s

The Germany national football team is a team of football players that represents Germany in international competitions. The official name of the team is "die Mannschaft". The team's nicknames are die Nationalelf and Die Adler ("the eagles"). Of the teams of the Deutscher Fußball-Bund, this team is the A-Mannschaft.

The country is a four-time world champion, a three-time European champion and has won the Confederations Cup once.

Since 2014, the German national football team has worn white shorts and a white shirt as their home kit. Previously, it usually played in black pants. That color combination was derived from the flag of Prussia. The 2014 kit designer thought white was more appropriate for the ease with which the team played. Since 1988, a bit of black, red and gold has also been placed on the shirt, as a reference to the German flag.

From 1950 until German reunification in 1990, this team represented only the Federal Republic (West Germany). For the team of football players that represented the former German Democratic Republic (East Germany), reference is made to National Football Team of the German Democratic Republic.
