Mario Götze's Nike Magista match worn boots. This special made to measure
boots were worn during the FIFA World Cup 2014. Both boots are signed and
personalized with "GÖTZE LOGO" and "#FAITH". Mario Götze was named in the
starting line-up against Portugal in the team's opening match, winning the
penalty kick for Germany's opening goal on his FIFA World Cup debut. In the
team's second match, he scored the opening goal and was named the Man of the
Match in a 2–2 draw with Ghana. Götze played just 14 minutes in 0–1 win against
the United States, half of the Round of 16 win against Algeria and seven minutes
in their Quarterfinal 0–1 win against France. The fact that the German coach
Joachim Löw brought on Julian Draxler for his first minutes of the World Cup in
Germany's Semi-final 7–1 hammering of Brazil, keeping Götze benched
throughout, perhaps was a wake-up call for him. In the World Cup final against
Argentina, Löw substituted 36-year-old Miroslav Klose after 88 minutes with
Götze and told him "Show the world you are better than Messi and can decide the
World Cup". Götze scored the only goal of the match in the 113th minute,
controlling André Schürrle's cross on his chest before volleying the ball into the
net, giving Germany their fourth World Cup. He became the first substitute to
score a World Cup winning goal, and the youngest player to score in a World Cup
Final since fellow German Wolfgang Weber in 1966 (who was also 22).
