This will absolutely shock you. Argentina's goalkeeper Sergio Goycochea had a ritual before every penalty shootout. He would urinate on the grass, right in front of everyone, not in the tunnel or in a bottle. His reasoning was simple: the rules say you cannot leave the field until the match is over, so he did what he had to do. He saved penalty after penalty across back to back World Cups and became one of the most clutch goalkeepers of his generation. Nobody questioned it. And that tells you everything about how far footballers will go when they believe something is working. Here are seven of the rarest, strangest, and most fascinating facts about kits, jerseys, and the superstitions that surround them. 1. Pelé's lucky shirt was a lie During a dip in form, Pelé convinced himself the problem was a "lucky" jersey he had given away to a fan, and he asked a friend to track it down. The friend could not find the original, so he quietly handed Pelé a completely different shirt from a previous game and said absolutely nothing. Pelé believed it was the one he had been looking for; his form immediately returned, and he never found out the truth. The shirt was wrong but the belief was aneough. 2. John Terry had fifty pre-match rituals and never missed a single one I said fifty, not five. Terry admitted to listening to the same Usher CD on the drive to every game, parking in the exact same spot at the stadium, sitting in the same seat on the team bus, and taping his socks exactly three times before kick off. He also wore the same pair of shin pads for ten consecutive seasons and reportedly still put on his full kit at home on days he was suspended and could not play, simply because the routine was the routine and breaking it was never an option he was willing to consider. Shocking. Right? 3. Jack Grealish wore the same boots from March all the way to Wembley Grealish returned from a three month injury layoff in March 2019 and immediately started scoring and assisting in a brand new pair of boots, declared them lucky, and refused to change them for a single game after that. He wore the exact same pair through the entire Championship run-in and all the way to the playoff final at Wembley, where Aston Villa beat Derby County 2-1 to win promotion back to the Premier League. He retired the boots after the final whistle and not a moment before. 4. Cameroon wore sleeveless jerseys to a tournament, won the tournament but got punished for it In 2002, Cameroon showed up to the Africa Cup of Nations in sleeveless jerseys as a deliberate statement against convention, and rather than going out early, they went ahead and won the entire tournament in the illegal kit. FIFA then banned the shirts ahead of the World Cup later that same year, ruling they violated regulations on kit design. So Cameroon lifted the trophy in jerseys that were technically not allowed, and were punished for it only after the fact. You genuinely could not write it. 5. France won the 1998 World Cup with Gloria Gaynor and a kissed bald head On the road to winning their first World Cup, the entire French squad sat in exactly the same seats on the team bus before every single game without exception, and in the dressing room they played Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" as a collective ritual before walking out. Before each match, striker Laurent Blanc would walk across to goalkeeper Fabien Barthez and kiss his shaved head, every single time, without fail. They won every game they played in that tournament and nobody suggested changing a single part of the routine because when something is not broken at a World Cup, you do not fix it. 6. A France manager was picking his national team squads using astrology Raymond Domenech, who managed the French national team from 2004 to 2010, publicly admitted that astrology was one of his parameters in decision making and openly stated his suspicion of Leo players in defensive positions. He was also widely reported to have a problem with Scorpios in his squad, and Robert Pires, who was one of the finest French players of that generation, effectively saw his international career end under Domenech's management. Domenech denied that astrology was the direct reason for any specific selection, but he never denied using it as a tool, which is arguably worse. He never won a trophy as a manager, and the stars, apparently, did not align for him. Which of these facts did you enjoy? Let me know in the comments section.

This is the area where frank gashumba gets my attention. We need school designed to decolonize Africans. Those who think our ancestors ways of doing things is evil and the white man’s ways is the way.
