Chelsea Wears Old Kit In 2018 FA Cup Final - Here Is Why

If you watched yesterday's FA Cup final between Manchester United and Chelsea, you might have wondered why Chelsea did not use their 2018-2019 home kit by Nike as they already debuted that kit in last weekend's Premier League match against Newcastle...

Chelsea Wears This Season's Home Kit In FA Cup Final

Chelsea debuted their brand-new 2018-19 home shirt in the last Premier League match of the 2017-18 season against Newcastle last weekend, but reverted back to the rather plain 2017-18 home kit yesterday. The reason is that club are not allowed to wear a different shirt to the ones registered at the start of the season in the FA Cup.

Unlike Chelsea, Bayern Munich wore their new kit both in the last home match of the season and in the 2017-18 German Cup final yesterday evening (with old red shorts in yesterday's match).
