Latvia Home 2006

Flag of Latvia

Biggest loss: Sweden 12-0 Latvia (1927)

Most capped: Vitalijs Astafjevs (167 caps)

Top scorer: Maris Verpakovskis (28 goals)

Star player: Artjoms Rudnevs (Hamburg)

Most people would see Latvia as one of the lesser teams in Europe. But in 2004 they managed to qualify for the European Championship which was a surprise to everyone. They did not manage to get out the group but played well and did not disgrace themselves. This shirt has a weirdly designed collar though for some reason but is a nice feeling shirt when worn

England Home 2004

Flag of England

First international: Scotland 0-0 England (1872)

Biggest win: Ireland 0-13 England (1882)

Biggest loss: Hungary 7-1 England (1954)

Most capped: Peter Shilton (125 caps)

Top scorer: Bobby Charlton (49 goals)

Star player: Wayne Rooney (Manchester United FC)

This shirt was quite cheap and I didn't think many people would have Darius Vassell on the back of an England kit. So being a bit random I decided to buy it.

Harchester United

A few years ago Sky one used to have a TV programme called Dream Team. It was about a made up football team (Harchester United) and basically followed the team and what the players got up to on their days off and stuff like that. I never really watched it but it was quite big for a bit I do believe. Well one of my family members was moving house and when packing she found this shirt that was given to her by her friend that used to work on the set of Dream Team, as she did not want it I was then given this nice shirt so I have to thank her for finding this for me.

First international: Trinidad and Tobago 11-1 Antigua and Barbuda (1972)

Biggest loss: Trinidad and Tobago 11-1 Antigua and Barbuda (1972)

Most capped: Ranjae Christian (43 caps)

Top scorer: Peter Byers (32 goals)

Star player: Mikele Leigertwood (Reading FC)


Antigua and Barbuda last year managed to get up to 83rd in the FIFA world rankings, for a population estimated around 81,800 I find that quite a good achievement. They recently got through to the second stage of CONCACAF World Cup qualification and after 2 games sit at the bottom of the table with 1 point.
This shirt is newly released by Peak sports USA and again I have to thank Eric for sourcing it for me so check out his collection to by clicking his link at the bottom of the page.

You can now buy the shirt at this online shop.

Belize according to the rankings are the worst central American side. They only played their first international in 1995 which was 15 years after gaining independence from the United Kingdom. They've achieved an all time high FIFA ranking of 134.

England Home 2002

Flag of England

Biggest loss: Hungary 7-1 England (1954)

Most capped: Peter Shilton (125 caps)

Top scorer: Bobby Charlton (49 goals)

Star player: Wayne Rooney (Manchester United FC)

This shirt was worn during England's unsuccessful 2002 World Cup campaign. The qualifying campaign to get there was more memorable though with a 5-1 win over Germany and then possibly the best ever solo performance from David Beckham managed to get a draw vs Greece which automatically qualified England that year. But then Ronaldinho was the problem as his free kick went over Seaman and knocked the English out.
