So, why the change in wardrobe? It’s all about the kits! Uruguay, as the designated ‘home’ side, gets first dibs on their kit choice. This leaves Spain to adapt and avoid any colour clashes. With both teams rocking dark navy elements in their designs this year, Spain’s classic red isn’t an option due to overlaps with Uruguay’s attire.
