To be worn in the UEFA Champions League, Real Madrid and adidas have a red kit for the first time in 38 years. It's a history returning, as they previously wore a red kit in the early 1970's with such legends as Zoco, Pirri and Amancio. The new Real Madrid red football shirt will be worn for the first time against Dinamo Zagreb. This shirt is almost all red, with a red collar and just the adidas three white stripes over the shoulder and the white adidas logo on the players right chest.
