Madagascar 2

 

Faneva Imà Andriatsima (Le Havre AC, France)
vs. Senegal (2:2) | AFCON Qualifiers | 2018 in Madagascar

First, let me stress that I already possess the most incredible Madagascan shirt out there - check Madagascar, if you haven't already!

Yet, I decided to get another Madagascar shirt somewhere in 2018. The main reason for that was not the unexpected sudden success of the Malgasy national team, which surprisingly qualified for the AFCON in 2019 and immediately reached the quarter final. It was the manufacturer of the shirt - and of course the availability of the shirt. For a very brief period, the local company Nino Sport did equip the Malgasy national team and I just had to get one. It is not a great shirt, to be honest, and it pales in comparison to all shirts the Barea, as the team is nicknamed, has worn since, but still: It is a local made shirt and I just love obscure little local brands!

That said, I am over the moon with this one, as with my first Madagascar shirt, and I am not sure I will need any more Madagascar shirts in future. But then again, we all know I might get one, if an opportunity arises.
