The Germany national football team represents Germany in men's international football, administered by the German Football Association, and is one of the most successful national teams in the sport's history, having won multiple FIFA World Cup titles, as West Germany in 1954, 1974 and 1990, and as unified Germany in 2014, along with multiple UEFA European Championship titles. Playing in white shirts with black shorts, the team is historically associated with disciplined, efficient and resilient performances, epitomized by its 2014 World Cup title built around a possession-based tactical system, and has fielded legendary players including Franz Beckenbauer, Gerd Muller, Lothar Matthaus and Miroslav Klose, the tournament's all-time leading World Cup goalscorer.
