adobo Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Surprised that FIFA haven't forced Japan and Poland to wear their so-far-unworn away kits today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank goodness the blue isn’t an eyesore but their red and white is too pretty to wear only 1/4, and that’s the PRIMARY! Shame on FIFA and the providers for forcing the teams to wear both kits. IMO, the navy/black just isn't Croatia. (nevermind the fact that those 2 colors should never be used together anyway) They should have used royal/black checkers on the away kit and it would look way better.

upperV03 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Looks like both France and Argentina will rightly be in their traditional home kits tomorrow: Uruguay/Portugal, though, will feature Uruguay in their light blue/black home kits and Portugal in their all-white secondaries: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KOREA Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 after each match day FIFA releases a stats of the day report like this one: https://resources.fifa.com/image/upload/stats-of-the-day-29-june-2018.pdf?cloudid=ycz5ioc7uckceuptbfwy just google "fifa stats of the day" and you can see the next matchday's kit matchups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezus_Ghoti Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Portugal not in red makes zero sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnclearInitial Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 I guess red shorts and green socks were too close to black. Would have been cool if Portugal had gone with white shorts and red or green socks with their home shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andregunts Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 that France - Argentina match will be a thing of beauty. Nothing is better uniform wise that 2 classic teams in their classic gear battling on the big stage Last time they played each other. Come to think of it, I like in the group stages you get these weird combinations that you never get to see again. The fact that France wore Blue/White/Blue against Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andregunts Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 also, real quick if anyone can help. A couple years ago I use to look on this Japanese site that has pictures of damn near pictures of every uniform combination for all national teams, do any of you happen to have it?

zigbazah Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Here is the KO round ball (including the final). IMO this should have been the main ball, with black and gold for the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayne Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I would have preferred them to stick with the black and white ball all tournament. I'm a purist. Keep it traditional. Too many colours and versions of everything, just feeding into the instant gratification mindset we all have today. I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself. That's what fkn all stars do.

The main reason that dark blue and black are thought of as incompatible is because the combination is rarely used in an effective, purposeful way (and thus, to its full potential). Croatia looks fantastic in this color combination, and it’s perfect for a change kit. The blue and black are different enough to showcase the checkered design but close enough to create a subtle and solid background for the other elements to stand against. The main kit is beautiful in its own right, but you can’t deny that it is very noisy, and the numbers and crest do get lost in the checkered background. Another tried-and-true example of this color combination is a midnight blue tuxedo; looks great with the black satin lapels, pant braid, waistcoat, and shoes.

upperV03 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Historical Football Kits has posted all of the Round of 16 kit matchups: http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/FIFA_World_Cup/2018/2018-knock-out-stages.html Brazil/Mexico should be a really nice matchup with both teams in their traditional kits. Spain/Russia, Belgium/Japan, and Sweden/Switzerland should all be fairly decent matchups, though not nearly as nice as France/Argentina and Brazil/Mexico. Shame that Colombia is so insistent on wearing the white shorts and socks with their home kit, which effectively forced England to go all-red.

upperV03 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 As expected, France/Argentina is a beautiful kit matchup: Easily one of the best of the tournament thus far with both teams in their traditional strips. Good balance too between the dark/light/dark of France and light/dark/light of Argentina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
