Italy 2008 player shirt by puma believed to have been match worn by Panucci in the Euro 2008 Group C match against Holland played at Stade de Suisse, Bern on the 9th June '08.
This was the match when the World Champions were stunned by an unfancied Dutch outfit in their opening game at the tournament. Roberto Donadoni's men were unexpectedly overwhelmed by a brilliant performance from Holland who led 2-0 at half-time after goals from van Nistelrooy and Sneijder, the second goal a superb piece of conter-attacking.
The Roma veteran Panucci now aged 35 played the full match and was helpless to stop van Bronckhorst adding a third with a free-kick. The former AC Milan, Real Madrid and Chelsea star moved to centre back for the Azzurri's next game and helped them recover to progress to the Quarter Finals. It was the iconic right back's last major tournament after playing at the 2002 World Cup and Euro 2004, featuring 57 times in total.
