'I Hope Puma Don’t Produce Condoms', Says Stoke City Winger Shaqiri

Prior to Euro 2016, fans across the globe as usual gave their thoughts on the participants' kits and to be honest, France took most of the votes with the hosts kits voted as one of the best looking kits.

Switzerland also received some positive reviews and were ranked among the best.

Fast forward to the recent scenario where Swiss tackled hosts France in their group's final match, which also turned out to be the battle of the shirts, quite literally.

During the match that ended 0-0 in favor of both teams which secured qualification into the knock out stages, saw four ripped Switzerland shirts, with Arsenal's new boy Xhaka forced to change his shirt twice during the match while Embolo and Mehmedi were also forced to swap their shirts.

The unfortunate scenario attracted wide criticism from football fans which was directed at kit makers, Puma.

However, Switzerland and Stoke City forward Xherdan Shaqiri had the final nail on the coffin, joking: "I hope Puma does not produce condoms."

According to the sport bible, Striker Breel Embolo also spoke about the ripped shirts after the game: "We have had a few problems with the jersey. The kit manager is not fully ready yet, but we are."
