The French national football team's home jersey from 1980 to 1984, designed by adidas, marked a significant modern turn in the team's attire with its introduction in 1980. The long-sleeved shirt boasted an elegant design with red and white pinstripes, which was a fresh change from the simpler styles of previous kits. The collar mirrored this pinstripe design, featuring a striking white inset panel that enhanced its appearance.

 

This jersey was emblematic of a golden era in French football, worn by legends such as No.12 Alain Giresse, No.10 Michel Platini, No.18 Dominique Rocheteau, No.19 Didier Six, and No.9 Bernard Genghini. Notably, it was donned during the 1982 FIFA World Cup, where France made a memorable run.

 

In the journey to the 1982 FIFA World Cup, the qualification process was a rigorous battle for national teams aiming to secure their place in the prestigious tournament. UEFA Group 2 presented an intense competition among five European teams, each bringing its distinct style and football legacy to the field.

 

The French team, known for its technical flair and strategic gameplay, was a formidable force within the group. Throughout the qualification rounds, they showcased a blend of experienced virtuosos and emerging talents. The competition in Group 2 was stiff, but France's determination and skillful play were evident as they sought one of the coveted spots in the final tournament.

 

The standings table from the group reveals the tight contest that unfolded. Belgium secured the top position with 11 points, reflecting a strong campaign with a balance of wins and draws and only a single loss. France followed closely, accumulating 10 points with a solid record of victories, no defeats, and a significant goal difference, underscoring their offensive strength and robust defense.

 

In the end, both Belgium and France advanced to the final tournament, where they would continue to pursue glory on the global stage.

    Well, that's up to you. Do you like a tight fit? Go for the smaller size. Loving a loose fit? Go for the larger size.
