World Cup – France won't wear blue against Morocco | OneFootball

This Thursday, the France national team will play in the quarter-finals of the 2026 World Cup against Morocco at 10 p.m. at Gillette Stadium in Boston (broadcast on M6 and beIN SPORTS). A match that Les Bleus will play in a different color even though they are considered the “home” team administratively. Ouest-France reports that a different choice has indeed been made.

There is no obvious explanation for this decision. The use of the away kit, slightly green, may be due to marketing reasons or a form of superstition. There is also the possibility of a better appearance on television, with some people perhaps watching the match in black and white, but Morocco’s away kit is white and would not have posed any particular problem with France’s blue shirt.

In any case, the choices have been made. Some supporters are already delighted about it, especially after France’s good performances while wearing this kit.
