Fabio Grosso #3 (Italy vs Egypt, South Africa Confederations Cup, Ellis Park Stadium, 18 June 2009)

Fabio Grosso, who scored the winning penalty for Azzurri in World Cup 2006, wore his famous #3 shirt in South Africa. He only wore short-sleeved shirt in the game against Egypt. This shirt was a tribute to former Azzurri with two times the world champions in 1930s.


Soft, v-shaped neckline... very comfortable design


Super big FIGC badge resembling that of 1930s

World Champions 2006 badge on mid-chest

Player number in flex material with small 'pores'

Hidden monogram of 'ITALIA' wordings with 4 stars (I like shirts with monogram of nice, hidden patterns, just like that of 1994), Forza Azzurri!

Confederations Cup sleeve badge unique for Azzurri, nice!

Linings with Italy flag colours


Grosso was a left defender with excellent sense and ability to attack... he was also a specialist in free kick and penalty kick.
