Soccer SLOTHOOOOOO!!!!!

Last night Australia beat South Korea 2-1 to win the final of the Asian Cup. It’s the Socceroos’ first major win. Although I made an exception for this match, I don’t really get into soccer… as much as I love slow sloths, soccer just doesn’t do it for me in the pace stakes. Still, I did scout out these shirts from Spread Shirt , which handily also come in green or gold so you can support Australia in their next endeavour! sloth soccer shirt
