Widerspruch

I've always found the collaboration between chocolate/soft drink/fast food companies and sports teams a total contradiction and particularly dislike it when it's products specifically aimed at kids.

Here you can see some of the wunderbare Deutsche Mannschaft (I think it's meant to be Mesut Özil and Philip Lahm* but don't quote me on that) in chocolate form; giving the impression that: (1) they might eat this stuff and (2) chocolate could help you to be a better footballer.

I'm pretty sure (again don't quote me on that) they don't and (even if it does taste nice and contain energy), it won't.

Rant over ;-)

* known lovingly as "Tiny Phil" in our house. My favourite part of every match is when during the national anthem line up the camera drops about 3ft from Neuer down to "Tiny". Makes me giggle every time.
