On Saturday, Ecuadorian club Independiente Del Valle will face Argentinian side CA Colon in the 2019 Copa Sudamericana final (equivalent to Europa League). South American football body Conmebol already revealed the jersey that will be worn by in the final. And the decision has been causing controversy because of the colors chosen, which will likely cause a "Clash Kit".
Kit Clash Could Be Avoided Easily
For Saturday's match in Asuncion, Paraguay, it was decided that Independiente Del Valle will play with their away jersey, in shock pink, with black details, while Colon will wear their first-choice jersey, divided in half in red and black.
Immediately after the South-American Football Confederation's announcement of the uniforms, many fans began to question the similarity of the colors of the shirts.
Two things speak again a big clash. First, the pink color on the picture of Independiente Del Valle's jersey is not accurate. Second, the Ecuadorian team will wear white shorts and white socks, while the Argentinean will wear black shorts and socks.
However, it is still possible that the jerseys will be changed for the match. Many fans noted that there might be a big clash (if Independiente Del Valle would wear their dark home kit and CA Colon would opt for their white away kit everything would be 100% sin).
As reported earlier this week, a special badge for the 2019 Copa Sudamericana final is applied on both kits.
