This bold sleeveless shirt, designed by Puma, created immense controversy as it closely resembled a basketball tank top. The team wore this unique kit during their successful campaign in Mali, where they were crowned champions of the 2002 Africa Cup of Nations after defeating Senegal on penalties in the final. However, FIFA banned the sleeveless design for the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan, citing the inability to attach official tournament sleeve patches. As a result, the team was forced to add black sleeves to the original design to comply with regulations and participate in the tournament. Despite the ban, this jersey remains a memorable milestone in football kit history.
