Austria defeated Germany 10-5 in a recent soccer match. Euro 2008? Nope. Topless soccer.

We will not be linking to any photos, though we’re *told* they exist and *told* they are tastefully done, with fronts painted in the colors of the countries. The media accounts? Priceless:

The traditional swapping of shirts afterwards was not an option as the six-a-side teams wore nothing but thongs, with the national colours painted on their bare skin. The football may not have been of the highest quality but that did not temper the enthusiasm of a mostly male crowd boosted by a sizable media presence only too happy to desert Euro 2008 training for an hour or two.

For the record, Germany’s clothed lads bested Austria 1-0 Monday in a stunning bit of payback.
