🇲🇺 Visiting the Mauritius Football Association HQ at the incredibly poorly-named Sepp-Blatter-House in Trianon
Had the opportunity to stop by as part of my ongoing months-long stay on the island. No S/M/L/XL replicas for sale because CFS bought them all - restock in September 🦤

I didn't take too many - but here is the biggest part of it.
Fun fact: we did also speak about you, when I was asked if there are any other people doing this :)

Tuvalu have gone from strength to strength of late, looking comfortable in a 4-0 win over Tonga at the Pacific Games and laying themselves a marker above 2-3 of the OFC. We have no gauge for Kiribati, but great to see the two associate OFC members co-operating.
🇰🇮 🇹🇻 Kiribati and Tuvalu are in talks to play a friendly in 2024. The only two Associate Members of Oceania Football Confederation aim to meet for Kiribati's first game since 2011's Pacific Games. Challenge will be funding, Associates get just $30k (NZ) annually from OFC.
ALT Kiribati's national football team line up for their anthem at the 2011 Pacific Games.
ALT Tuvalu's national football team at the 2023 Pacific Games in the Solomon Islands where they beat Tonga and the Northern Mariana Islands.

2002-04 Socceroos home shirt (1 layer version) by Adidas 🧵
This design harked back to the early 80's Socceroos kits with the contrast raglan sleeve/ringer tee look.
The Adidas template was famously created as a dual layer shirt for players to better withstand the heat... (1/6)

FSM has no OFC/AFC/FIFA funding so to see a tournament outside of the Micro Games, particularly for Kosrae to debut, is enormous. Keep an eye out for this, looks very interesting! 🇫🇲

Vanuatu 🇻🇺
This extremely rare flag shirt of Vanuatu's national team has always been one of my holy grails. I'm beyond happy to finally have a matchworn version of this beauty in my hands!
Probably worn in various matches in 2007/08.
