Adelaide United has revealed an all-new, bold, yellow playing kit for their one off blockbuster match against Liverpool FC.

Along with the new strip, the Reds have revealed that two exciting new partners, San Remo and Malaysia Airlines along with existing major partner Veolia, will support United during the international spectacle.

As per the Hyundai A-League season, Veolia retains the prime front-of-shirt position, with San Remo being represented on the back-of-shirt and Malaysia Airlines positioned on the playing shorts.

Liverpool is England’s most successful club with 41 major honours, 18 times champions of England and 5 times champions of Europe and they will be facing our own Adelaide United on 20 July at Adelaide Oval as part of the 2015 LFC Tour.

Like Liverpool, Adelaide United is traditionally known as the Reds, and it was decided that the honour of wearing the traditional red strip would be granted to the English giants. Adelaide United will take the field in the all yellow strip highlighting one of the primary colours of the Club.

Club Chairman Greg Griffin welcomed the corporate support for United in readiness for the highly anticipated match.

“Involvement from these types of global brands is a reflection of the strength of Adelaide United in the football world, but also highlights the opportunity for international exposure due to the profile of a team like Liverpool FC,” said Griffin.
