World Cup 2026: England to wear all-white kit and Argentina navy blue in semi-finals


England will wear their all-white home kit to face Argentina in the semi-finals of the World Cup in Atlanta on Wednesday.

Holders Argentina will be in their navy blue away strip, with black shorts and socks, for the game at the Atlanta Stadium (20:00 BST), which will be shown live on the BBC.

They have only worn the darker kit once during the tournament, in their 3-1 win against Jordan in the group stage.

Argentina have enjoyed success in their away kit against England at previous World Cups.

They defeated the Three Lions 2-1 in the 1986 quarter-finals, in which Diego Maradona scored the ‘Hand of God’ goal, and also secured a last-16 penalty shootout victory over their old rivals at the 1998 tournament in France.
