Villarreal Forced to Wear Training Kit vs Borussia Dortmund

Villarreal's Kit Mishap: Training Jerseys on the Pitch

The Spanish team planned to wear its away kits, due to the obvious clash of Villarreal's yellow home jerseys with BVB's yellow home kits. However, a "shipping issue" prevented the away kits from arriving on time.

Faced with this dilemma, Villarreal quickly improvised by printing numbers on its training jerseys for the players to wear on the pitch. This quick thinking allowed them to avoid both a kit clash and the embarrassment of playing without proper uniforms.
