GDR

 

Squad Picture
vs. Czechoslovakia (0:3) | Friendly | 1990 in GDR

I finally got a GDR shirt, sort of. It is the shirt that the GDR women's national team wore in its only ever match - a lost friendly against Czechoslovakia. It is definitely not matchworn, though, as you can see on the picture that none of the players actually wore a longsleeve shirt. It probably is some kind of souvenir replica or something from some youth squad or alike.

I got the shirt from a seller who was close to the GDR women's national team at the time and did sell me the shirt for around 100€, which is a very fair price, indeed, even if the heritage is still slightly dodgy. Given the trusted source, however, I do consider the GDR ticked off for now. I will need a Czechoslovakia and USSR shirt next, I guess...
