Actually, you are looking at the England shirt played during the World Cup qualifiers. The answers are all right. England are allowed to wear the star since they have won the cup once.

But they cannot wear the star always. After the world Cup, when England take part in the next Euro qualifiers, they have to do away with the star since they have not won the Euro championship before.

The star only represents the present tournament they are playing in. They, nor any other country, do not have the right to wear the star permanently.What does the star that is above the three lions badge on an england football shirt mean?Simply put, a star on an international shirt denotes a World Cup win. A star on a European team's shirt should indicate a European Cup/Champions League win.



The obvious execption to this is Man City who can boast no such trophy cabinet delights, yet believe it serves aesthetic value on their shirts. Personally, I think they should change the three stars to three large bags of cash to give the emblem a more meaningful visual significance.What does the star that is above the three lions badge on an england football shirt mean?
The Star mean the 1 time England won the World Cup, which was in 1966.



Every country who had won the world cup before will do the same thing. For example Brazil had won it 5 time, and in their crest, you will see 5 stars.



But I am wondering who actually started this practice...What does the star that is above the three lions badge on an england football shirt mean?according to FIFA, every Country that wins the World Cup is allowed to put a star on their national team shirts to symbolise it, hence England have 1, Brazil have 5, Scotland and Spain have an empty shirt
its cos England won the world cup once, in 1966. when a country have won a world, they get a gold star above the badge on thier shirt.



Brazil have loads of gold stars above their badge on thier shirt.What does the star that is above the three lions badge on an england football shirt mean?
