Qatar – Home – 2008

Cook Islands – Home – 2010

This shirt was bought directly from the Cook Islands FA via their website. I wish more national associations would make their shirts available to purchase directly. The only difficulty was the cost of sending a bank transfer to the Cook Islands.

Mozambique – Home – 2009

I’ve been after this shirt for a while. I know that Puma produced a number of african shirts, most commonly Algeria, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Egypt, Tunisia etc. But they also produced shirts for Mozambique and Namibia. This shirt comes complete with the Puma ‘sample’ information just like my Ivory Coast shirts. The information includes which factory it was made in.

This shirt came from the USA, and unfortunately they put a far higher value of the shirt when declaring its contents. Thanks to this I not only had to pay customs duty, but I also had to pay the Royal Mail an £8 handling fee.

Total cost – £46.47

Total cost of collection – £2390.48

Sudan – Home – ?

Bermuda – Away – 2007

Burkina Faso – Home – 2001

Whilst the design of the shirt is identical to that used in the 2002 African Cup of Nations, the style of the print is consistent with the 1998 version.

Your guess is as good as mine.
This shirt was worn during the African Cup of Nations hosted by Burkina Faso. A late goal against Guinea in the final group stage put them through to the knockout stages where they beat Tunisia on penalties, before losing 2-0 to eventual winners Egypt. Burkina Faso lost the 3rd placed Play-Off tournament on penalties against DR Congo having been 4-1 up after 87 minutes, the following 140 seconds were quite spectacular.
