Barcelona must change their kit against Real Betis

The Catalans can wear the first team shirt but not the rest of the normal strip

Barcelona will play in the Spanish Super Copa semi-final on Thursday against Real Betis, 8pm CET. However they will have to change their strip for the gme. They will have the first team shirt but red shorts and socks.

That is because of the strict rules that want this measure taken to avoid any confusion with Betis's black shorts.

The Andalusians are hosts and so get this marginal advantage, having won the last Copa dle Rey.

 

If Barcelona progress to the final then they would be able to wear their normal kit, against Real Madrid or Valencia.
