The Africa Cup of Nations, which is being held in Cameroon, is really a topic of conversation, especially when it comes to shirts. In addition to the Sudanese national team wearing different styles of jerseys in the first and second halves, the Malawi national team's shirts have also successfully attracted the attention of all parties. Because the jerseys worn by the players on the court were printed with unusual size jersey numbers.
As can be seen from the photos of the match, the jerseys used by the Malawi national team to compete in the Africa Cup of Nations have been printed with oversized jersey numbers. In terms of size, it seems to be 1.5 times the jersey number of other teams. Such a large jersey number, even fans sitting on the top of the stadium should be able to see clearly, it seems that this jersey number is designed for those fans with bad eyes?
In addition to using oversized jersey numbers, another point worth noting is that the African Football Federation (CAF) does not seem to prescribe the specific size of the jersey number size. For example, the UEFA equipment regulations clearly indicate that the height of the jersey number on the back should be between 25 cm and 35 cm.
Obviously, the oversized jersey number printed on the Malawi national team shirt once again exposes the casual and unprofessional side of African football, which is also the unique charm of African football.
