Sami Khedira's girlfriend shown yellow card for being too sexy

London, June 28 (ANI): German footie star Sami Khedira's stunning girlfriend Lena Gercke has been asked by the German FA to tone down her appearance when taking her place in the stand for their Euro 2012 semi-final clash against Italy.

According to German gossip magazine Bunte, national sports chiefs fear the model has overshadowed the other wives and girlfriends during the tournament, the Daily Mail reported.

This had led to bickering between rival WAGS and subsequently lowered morale within the team camp.

So she has been requested "not to hog the spotlight" before Thursday's crucial match, so the focus can be switched back to the game.

The winner of the Germany's first Next Top Model contest started dating the Real Madrid ace last year.

She was snapped wearing a pair of skimpy shorts at the start of the tournament.

She appeared semi-naked on the German version of GQ magazine alongside her fully-clothed midfield lover last year.

The couple are set to tie the knot after the championships are over. (ANI)
