Umbro Norway Home Shirt 2009

Posted on June 12th, 2009 in Norway by reddevilrooney

The Norwegian national football team, regulated by the Norges Fotballforbund, has unveiled the new home shirt to be worn by the team. Norway currently rank 47th in the latest FIFA rankings, and realistically have no chance of qualifying for next year’s edition of the World Cup to be held in South Africa. They are participating in the same qualifying group as Holland, Scotland, Macedonia and Iceland, and at the time of this news, they find themselves bottom of the group with just 3 points. Holland are sure to qualify as they have 21 points, winning all matches. They beat Norway 1-0 and 2-0 in the two encounters between the national teams.

Umbro, a British-based subsidiary of Nike, manufactures the kits for the team. The new home shirt has a white base colour with dark blue details on the top-front. It has a red-and-white fold-over collar. The Umbro logo appears on the right side of the chest, above the player number, while the national team crest, which is the flag of Norway rather than the badge of the Norwegian Football Association, appears on the left side. White shorts and white socks complete the new home shirt to make it all-white for the Scandinavian team.

    Don’t really like it, it’s not bad, could be much worse actually (RBK Bolton template for instance :p ). I prefer they’d use red for their home shirt.

    This is surely the away shirt! All umbro are doing are mixing the templates up.. its bburn away shirt with slightly darker stripes and west hams collar… not original but it dont look too bad

    You can’t change the main colour of a football team! This would be perfect as the away kit. Surely it must be!
