Five members of the German women's soccer team have posed for Playboy to show they are just "normal" girls, The Local news website reported Friday.
The cover of the July issue of the magazine's German edition shows the players posing in a very risque version of the national team's black and white soccer uniform, including very low-cut tops and bikini bottoms.
The five players said they agreed to participate in the erotic photo shoot to help throw off the perception that they were all tomboys.
"With these photos, we want to disprove the cliche that all female footballers are butch," Germany midfielder Kristina Gessat told the magazine.
"The message is: look, we are very normal — and lovely — girls!"
Midfielder Julia Simic said, "More and more sweet, pretty girls are playing football who also go shopping and place value on their appearance."
Germany's been a perennial women's soccer power for years and is preparing to host the World Cup, which begins June 26.

Nina van Splunter of German Playboy, said: 'For us, this makes a lot of sense.
'Everyone knows how popular football is in Germany and, just like their male counterparts, the female team are very successful.
'The girls we have used are not yet first-team players with Germany, but they have all represented their country at various levels.
Van Splunter added: 'We have only just published, so we're waiting to hear comments.
'There was not agreement - we didn't ask the DFB, we went direct to the ladies.
'But it should be OK, otherwise they would have been told not to do it by their clubs."
Annika Doppler, 19, Ivana Rudelic, 19, and Julia Simic, 22, play for Bayern Munich; Kristina Gessat plays for Gütersloh and Selina Wagner plays for Wolfsburg.
In the accompanying interview, Gessat says: 'The message is, look, we are normal - and lovely - girls.'
One can only hope that Wayne Rooney never follows suit.

he women soccer uniform usually comes in combinations and contrasts of white and black with attractive pinks, reds, oranges, blues and gold. While supporting and playing for different clubs, the women also love to get their uniforms customized in different colors and with different logos. The comfort although remains their first priority so that while on the field, they can concentrate completely on the game rather than on their clothing.
