Special features

Maharramov sat on the bench during this World Cup qualifying match and did not play — the shirt is therefore a rare, untouched matchday piece that also comes from the collection of a DFB team manager. Umbro Climat Control; rubberized number and name; embroidered federation and Umbro logo; embroidered national flag; World Cup qualification badge on the sleeves.

The match

On 12 August 2009, Germany won the World Cup qualifying match in Baku convincingly with 2:0 — Schweinsteiger scored in the 12th minute, Klose added shortly after the break in the 54th. In front of 30,000 spectators at the Tofiq-Bəhramov Stadium, Germany fielded a starting eleven featuring Ballack, Klose, and Gomez — and gave Azerbaijan no chance in the battle for qualification for the 2010 World Cup.
