Why are Man Utd wearing black shorts?
MANCHESTER UNITED host Sevilla in a mouth-watering Europa League quarter-final – but the home fans have noticed something different about their team.
The Red Devils annihilated Real Betis in the previous round 5-1 on aggregate.
And they’ll be hoping for the same result tonight against another Spanish opposition.
But the Red Devils will have to do in different colour shorts than what they are used to wearing.
Why are Man Utd wearing black shorts?
Manchester United are wearing black shorts so that they wouldn’t clash with Sevilla’s white strip.
The Red Devils usually play in white shorts but have been forced to change as it would clash with all of Sevilla’s other kits.
United wear black shorts when they play against a team with light or pale shorts.
Who else have Man Utd wore black shorts against?
The Red Devils often wear black shorts when they play against bitter rivals Manchester City at the Etihad.
But it wasn’t a pair of shorts to remember as United got thrashed by City 6-3.
Erling Haaland and Phil Foden both scored a hattrick each in what was a torrid match for Man United.
