Master star
Champion stars are marks of football clubs and national football teams for titles they have won. These are placed on their jerseys in the form of stars . Depending on the country or competition, the championship stars are distributed according to different criteria. In various competitions, the association has regulations on the right to use master stars. In other competitions, champions stars are used autonomously by the club. The origin of this jersey decoration lies in Italy : There Juventus Turin received a symbolic star for the first time in recognition of the ten championships they had won at the end of the 1950s.
Design
The championship stars are usually placed above the club's coat of arms, in exceptional cases underneath or on the sleeve of the jersey. The color of the master stars is mainly gold or yellow; some clubs adapt the color of the master star to their club colors for optical reasons. As a rule, the star is designed as a five-pointed star ( pentagram ).
Football World Cup
Each soccer world champion receives one star for each world championship won.

The Uruguayan national soccer team wears four stars on its jersey: two for the World Cup titles in 1930 and 1950 and two for victories at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 1924 and Amsterdam in 1928 . The stars for the two victories in the Olympic soccer tournaments have been added, as no soccer world championship was held in the 1920s and the two Olympic victories therefore have the same status as a World Cup title in the opinion of the Uruguayan soccer association . In 1950, FIFA recognized the two Olympic victories as world championships.
The German team has only been wearing the stars since qualifying for the European Championship in 1996. The Brazilian players, on the other hand, can already be seen in pictures of the 1974 World Cup with three stars on their jerseys. After winning the World Cup final in 2010, the Spanish players immediately put on new jerseys with a star above the association's logo and pointedly pointed to the star. On the white home jerseys of the English national team at the 2006 World Cup in Germany, there was a gold star above the association's coat of arms. On the jerseys of the 2010 vintage, however, the star was rather inconspicuous. The white home jerseys had a white star, the red jerseys a red one that was only faintly contrasted with the ground. He was a bit more visible on the goalkeeper's shirts. For the Euro 2012, England competed with jerseys on which the star is more clearly recognizable. The Italian national team wore three stars on their jersey for the first time during the 1994 World Cup in the USA. The French national team already wore the championship star over the national coat of arms as defending champions at the 2002 World Cup.

In some associations where the women have not yet won a world title, e.g. B. Brazil, France or Italy, the women wear the men's world championship stars on their jerseys. The German team also wore the men's three stars until they won their first title.
A separate regulation for Junior World Championships, which z. B. would allow the Argentine U 20 to land with six stars does not exist. The junior teams generally compete with the number of stars that corresponds to the World Cup titles of the A teams.
Europe
European Football Championship
The national team of Denmark wore a little star on their jersey during the 2004 European Football Championship in Portugal to commemorate the European Football Championship they won in Sweden in 1992 .
UEFA Champions League
In the past, clubs like Liverpool FC or Real Madrid decorated their jerseys with stars for their titles in the Champions League and the European Cup. From the UEFA regulation was finally taken after the clubs who have won three consecutive times or five times in the UEFA Champions League and its predecessor competition, the national champion trophy, a silver honor Coat of Arms (Champions League trophy and the number of victories) on the left sleeve of the jersey. These are
- Real Madrid (13 titles, including five in a row 1956–1960, 1966, 1998, 2000, 2002, 2014, 2016–2018)
- AC Milan (7 titles in 1963, 1969, 1989, 1990, 1994, 2003, 2007)
- Liverpool FC (6 titles 1977, 1978, 1981, 1984, 2005, 2019)
- FC Bayern Munich (6 titles, including three in a row 1974–1976, 2001, 2013, 2020)
- FC Barcelona (5 titles 1992, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2015)
- Ajax Amsterdam (4 titles, including three in a row 1971–1973, 1995)
As a sign of their victories in the Champions League and the European Cup, Olympique Marseille (winner 1993) and Celtic Glasgow (winner 1967) wear a star above their official club crest. Aston Villa (winner 1982) integrated the star into the club crest, which was redesigned in 2007. Also the final jersey from Manchester United in 1999, contained a logo with star, which in the victory of the 1967-68 European Cup should, who was by then the only one in the club's history, remember.
Traditional rules for national championships
According to the traditional European rule in club football, a football club receives one star for every ten championship titles. This rule is used in many European football associations - for example by the associations in Albania , Belgium , Austria , Switzerland , Italy , the Netherlands , France , Scotland , Ireland , Romania , Ukraine , Serbia , Hungary , Bulgaria , Malta , Sweden , Finland , Norway and Cyprus . In Poland, a gold star is awarded for ten championship titles, a silver star for 5 to 9 championships and a white star for 1 to 4 championships above the coat of arms. Whether the championship star is worn is up to the respective club.
The associations from England , Spain , the Czech Republic and Croatia do not award championship stars.

Special regulations for national championships
Germany
In Germany there are two different systems according to which master stars are awarded. A regulation was introduced by the German Football League for the 2004/05 season and is only binding for those clubs that are currently in the national leagues . A second regulation was introduced by the German Football Association for the 2005/06 season. The DFB regulation is rejected by the DFL and therefore only applies to clubs outside the direct sphere of influence of the DFL, i.e. for clubs that are currently in the 3rd division or lower divisions.
Only championships that were won in the Bundesliga (i.e. championship titles in the Federal Republic of Germany since the 1963/64 season) fall under the DFL regulation. Since the German Bundesliga has in its history, in addition to one dominating team (FC Bayern Munich), several clubs with a comparatively small number of championships, the DFL decided on an unusual distribution:
- From three championships: one star
- From five championships: two stars
- From ten championships: three stars
- From twenty championships: four stars
The fact that this system is only applied to Bundesliga championships led to widespread criticism from clubs that won the GDR Oberliga championships and championships before the introduction of the Bundesliga soccer league. The regulation was criticized mainly by the BFC Dynamo with its ten championship titles in the GDR league, but also by other teams. On March 18, 2005, it was decided at the DFB Presidium Meeting - subject to the approval of the DFL - that all German champions before the 1963/64 season as well as all GDR champions should be given the opportunity to add stars according to the above rating to lead their jerseys.
However, the DFL rejected this application. Although it also made a corresponding recommendation to the German Football Association, the DFB did not follow it. For teams in lower divisions than the 2nd Bundesliga, the DFB decided on July 19, 2005 a new regulation for championships won before 1963/64 or in the GDR: According to this, clubs with at least one such title are allowed to wear a single star over the club emblem, the can optionally carry the number of championship titles won (before 1963/64 or GDR title) in its center. This regulation only applies to clubs outside the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga. B. Dynamo Dresden could not wear a star during its seasons in the 2nd Bundesliga.
Dynamo Dresden (eight GDR championship titles) and Fortuna Düsseldorf (German champion 1933) were among the first clubs to wear a star due to this regulation . Rot-Weiß Erfurt and 1. FC Magdeburg have given their jerseys a star for the GDR championships they have won in 2009: Erfurt won the title in 1954 and 1955, and Magdeburg won the GDR championship in 1972, 1974 and 1975. Since 2011 Hansa Rostock's jersey is also decorated with a star with the number 1 for the last GDR / NOFV championship won in 1991.
Deviating from both regulations, SpVgg Greuther Fürth showed three stars in its logo until 2017, as a sign of the three championship titles won as Spielvereinigung Fürth in 1914, 1926 and 1929. However, Fürth had to wear a logo without stars on the game jerseys. The association solved this by wearing the clover leaf on his chest, as it has done traditionally for many decades. The club coat of arms was finally changed in 2017.
