PIC: Spain’s new jersey for Euro 2016 is simple and absolutely sublime

Guapa!

Guapa!

Something was massively off about Spain during the World Cup in Brazil and I’m not just talking about their dreadful performances on the pitch.

Iker Casillas and Diego Costa bore the brunt of the criticism for a poor showing last summer but La Furia Roja also dropped their impeccable run of form when it came to having a beautiful jersey, thanks a lot FIFA for that stupid policy of making all kits adhere to just one prominent colour.

Del Bosque’s side brought back the yellow stripes in qualifying for Euro 2016 and they also returned to some of their scintillating tiki-taka football.

I’m not saying that there’s a connection between the two but if Adidas are reading this, please don’t mess with Spain’s kit formula ever again. They’re always class and this new effort is no exception.

Take a look.
