    Congratulations again to Brazil 1970.

    Of course it could all have been so different if my colleagues had let this beauty in...

    Thanks for joining us today and getting involved in the debate and taking part in each round.

    It's been an epic 10 hours of World Cup kit chat, pictures, arguments, laughs and (probably somewhere) tears.

    Scott Martin: Saying people are voting for the teams over the kits is a bit of a moot point. You rarely buy a football shirt because its a beautiful item of clothing. Its the nostalgia!

    Greg Randles: Deserved winner in the #WorldCupOfKits Brazil 1970 is just so simple, it's beautiful and timeless, just like the squad who wore it

    Disagree that we were swayed by the team. Simple shirt but elegant and understated. Commanding respect through its colour combinations.

    Olly in Bristol: If that Brazil kit had been worn by Australia or Sweden or any other yellow-clad teams then it would not have been in the competition, let alone beating the iconic item of clothing that is Germany 1990. Disappointed.

    But would that West Germany kit have reached the final if it was, say, Slovenia?

    Matt Birch: As a totally unbiased German who owns a 1990 kit somewhere, this is a shambolic decision. It’s the same colour Brazil have had for every World Cup... EVER!

    That might be part of the appeal? A vote for Brazil 1970 is a vote for every Brazil jersey

    World Cup 2018: Neymar & Philippe Coutinho egged by team-mates in Brazil training

    It might not be wise to celebrate our birthdays with the Brazilian squad.

    PSG forward Neymar and Barcelona's Philippe Coutinho are egged by team-mates in Brazil training, on the latter's 26th birthday.

    Reckon Pele and Carlos Alberto were up to this kind of thing in 1970?

    Grimboid: Lothar looks furious as the #WorldCupOfKits trophy is handed to Carlos Alberto! The Brazil 1970 kit causes a giant shock by beating the West Germany 1990 kit by 55% - 45%... it’s a travesty!!!

    What means more to Carlos Alberto and the Brazil 1970 lads? That rubbish trophy he has there or this World Cup of kits? Don't answer, it's a rhetorical question

    (obviously it's this)

  17. Postpublished at 17:35 British Summer Time 12 June 2018

    With 55% of the picks, you've selected Brazil 1970 as the greatest World Cup jersey of all time. West Germany's 1990 effort was second.
