Black and white are the two colours identifying the German national teams, and although the same of course also applies to the national colours of Germany, black, red and gold, these are kept quite small and only appear in thin stripes on the shirtfronts. The football players wear black shorts and white shirts at home matches. The shirts may be a national identification symbol, but have an international background nonetheless. They are distributed by a German manufacturer of sports equipment, but produced in Thailand, and some of their wearers not only have German roots: Mesut Özil is the child of Turkish immigrants and grew up in Gelsenkirchen, Fatmire ‘Lira’ Bajramaj came to Germany from Kosovo at the age of four. Both of them number amongst the players who represent Germany in international sports.
