Austria had a less successful year in 1985, failing to qualify for the 1986 World Cup. On 20 November 1985, the Austrian team took on Spain in a friendly match at the Estadio La Romareda in Zaragoza. The players of the Austrian team played in these tight Puma Jerseys. The cooperation between the Austrian national team and Puma has lasted from 1976 until now! This Jersey was obtained after the game by a Spanish kit man who was collecting matchworn Jerseys. The Jersey is said to belong to a substitute player. The two Austrian substitutes in this match were Toni Polster and Walter Horman, who made their appearance on the field after an hour. Neither player brought any major change to the match, as the final score remained 0-0.
