UNFAIR ADVANTAGE: Soccer Team In Germany Gets Completely Naked For The First Ever Nude Vs Clothed Match

[Sun] - A NEW football team finally got their kit off and took to the field completely NAKED for the first time.

The Nacktionalmannschaft -  a pun on the German words for “nude” and “national team” - debuted in front of a 300-strong crowd in Duisburg, Germany. 

The side, which is comprised of both men and women, only wore boots and socks — with their numbers painted on their backs. The game was organised by artist and filmmaker Gerrit Starczewski, 34.

He said: "A game such as there has never been before in the vastness of the football planet – a team in jerseys against a nude 11.”

Well I've heard of shirts and skins before, but this? This is crossing a line. I've actually blogged about these people before, who had a completely naked match to protest FIFA. But now we're getting jerseys vs a nude 11? No thank you. I gotta think soccer is so far on the list of sports to play naked. You can't use your hands therefore your junk is in serious trouble, especially with no cup. Too much running around and flopping around honestly. You gotta think a slide tackle completely naked is going to hurt a tad. I'd have soccer as a clear 2nd worst sport to play naked right behind hockey. Too cold, too many slap shots. 

But how about this guy Gerrit Starczewski calling it art! 

Building up to the event on his Instagram page, he added it would be “a furious display of artistry for connoisseurs.”

Bro that's not art. Art is in museums and paintings that I don't understand. This is just convincing people to play soccer naked in front of 300 people. Hell of a move, but that's not art. I do question the 300 people who showed up for this. There are only two options here. They either love and I mean they fucking love the sport of soccer or they wanted to see naked people. Can't fault either of the two, but let's call a spade a spade here. That's why they showed up. 

The worst part of it all? It was an 8-8 tie! How do you tie here? Listen, I love soccer, but you can't have a tie in this situation. Either shirts or skins have to win. Go to a shootout. Anything, just don't let this game end in a tie. I admittedly don't understand art, but I'm pretty sure art can't be a tie. 

I apologize for the gross thumbnail so to make it up here's Shakira, who is married to Barcelona legend Gerard Pique.
