Kits

South Libertopian kits cover only a minimal amount of skin and tend to more closely resemble underwear than normal association football kits. The team prefers to play with gold tops and black shorts but has all-gold and all-black options in case of a clash of colors. The goalkeeper kit is typically all-white but there is an all-pink alternate.

Third Place Match

South Libertopia 0–1 Saintland

First Place Match

Free Republics 2–2 Nordernious (2–4 pen.)

OOC: As you can tell from the results, I changed my mind about rigging the tournament. No rescorinations were performed and I think the outcome is perfectly fine for my story purposes. If Margaret wants Nordernius to win the first edition of this prestigious tournament, so be it.
