Official Puma Italy away football shirt from the 2014/15 international season.
The condition of this original football jersey is 9/10 - Superb (see photos).
In their first match at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, Italy defeated England 2–1. However, in the second group stage match, underdogs Costa Rica beat the Italians 1–0. In Italy's last group match, they were knocked out by Uruguay 1–0, due in part to two controversial calls from referee Marco Antonio Rodríguez (Mexico): in the 59th minute, midfielder Claudio Marchisio was sent off for a questionable tackle.
Later in the 80th minute, with the teams knotted at 0–0 which would have sent Italy to the next round, Uruguayan striker Luis Suárez bit defender Giorgio Chiellini on the shoulder but was not sent off. Uruguay went on to score moments later in the 81st minute with a Diego Godín header from a corner kick, winning the game 1–0 and eliminating Italy. This marked Italy's second consecutive failure to reach the Round of 16 at the World Cup finals. Shortly after this loss, coach Cesare Prandelli resigned.
