Boca Juniors Tribute: Sint-Truiden 26-27 European Kit Released
Belgian Pro League club Sint-Truidense VV has officially unveiled its new European kit for the 26-27 season, produced by regional brand Olympic. The special strip was revealed during the premiere of the club documentary 'Expeditie Kanarie: de weg naar Europa' at CC De Bogaard, celebrating STVV's historic first qualification for the main stages of European competition in club history.
The Olympic Sint-Truiden 26-27 European jersey draws heavy inspiration from Boca Juniors while paying tribute to the club's iconic late-1980s 'BT-shirt'. It features a royal blue base highlighted by a bold yellow horizontal chest band that accommodates the Maruhan sponsor logo. The STVV crest and Olympic branding are centered neatly above the chest stripe, complemented by yellow trim along the V-neck collar and sleeve cuffs. Matching blue shorts and yellow socks complete the look.
Sint-Truiden will wear the new kit throughout their 26-27 UEFA Conference League league phase campaign, where their fixtures include matchups against Ajax, Hajduk Split, SK Brann, FC Midtjylland, FC Lugano, and FC Iberia 1999 Tbilisi.
England Wears Red Away Against Croatia | 7-0 Victory
England took the pitch in their red 2026 away kit on Saturday night and delivered a historic performance, sweeping aside Croatia 7-0 in their UEFA Nations League clash at Stadion HNK Rijeka. The Three Lions lined up in their striking "Speed Red" jersey paired with obsidian navy shorts and red socks, switching from their primary white home uniform to avoid a kit clash with Croatia's famous red-and-white checkered home design.
The red and navy proved to be a good contrast, as Croatia's kit has white sleeves, shorts and socks - No problems with the red checkers. England dominated from the opening whistle to hand Croatia the heaviest defeat in their football history. Harry Kane and Bukayo Saka each scored twice, Jude Bellingham delivered an outstanding performance with a goal and three assists, and Anthony Gordon and substitute Morgan Rogers also found the back of the net to complete the ruthless display.
Nike reintroduced the classic red colorway for England's 2026 away strip, combining the vibrant red base with deep obsidian and crisp white accents along the collar and side inserts. Red away shirts hold a celebrated place in England's history, and Saturday's emphatic seven-goal triumph in Rijeka adds another memorable chapter to the look.
