Euro 2008 Jersey Poll Tournament: QF1 - Portugal vs Germany

June 3rd, 2008 | By: Daryl | 13 Comments »

The group stages of the Euro 2008 Jersey Poll Tournament are nearly over, and it’s time for the knockout stages to begin.

Just like the actual tournament the top two from each group have qualified for the quarters.

This is our fist quarterfinal, pitting Group A winners Portugal against Group B runners up Germany.

Have a look at the shirts and then cast your vote below:

Form: Group A (aka the Group of Red) was a bit of a lottery. Every home shirt was red, every away shirt was white. Literally anyone could have come out on top, but Nike’s Portugal shirt design was the clear winner with an impressive 41% of the vote.

Form: This shirt finished a distant second in to the unique and popular Croatia shirt in Group B. But the Adidas Germany shirt still managed to get 30% of the vote, leaving poor Austria and Poland in the dust.

So it’s the swoosh made Portugal jersey’s first non-red opposition. How does the red with subtle enough green trim match up against the white Germany jersey with traditional three stripes and innovative flag merging into crest on the chest design?

Vote for your favourite below:

The poll is now closed. Final score:
Germany 61%
Portugal 39%

Yeah exactly Tommy, read the little paragraph below the Germany jersey, they were runners up to Croatia.

Germany. I like being a conservative sometimes.

Germany. As someone said in the group phase, there is a number missing from the shirt, which will make the black, red and yellow a little less weird.

I don’t get why so many people like the Germany one. I’ve been hearing that al over the place. It bores me; white generally doesn’t do much for me.

Portugal, by a long mile… Eventhough it’s not as nice as the previous PT kits, it’s still by far much nicer than the GER kit. But that’s just me…

Obviously the German one is better in terms of colour, design and over-all look. Some people dont have an eye for seeing that and make ridiculous claims.

By Eoin | June 14th, 2008 at 7:02 pm

No Skillz, we all have different eyes, maybe you should realize that instead of assuming yours are the best.

That is a ridiculous claim.
