The Argentine national team will debut its alternate kit for the World Cup in the USA, Mexico, and Canada against Spain in the Finalissima. This has raised concerns among fans, as the 'Albiceleste' has never won a championship wearing an alternate uniform. According to Noticias Argentinas agency, Lionel Scaloni's squad will unveil its second World Cup kit, a completely black uniform with white and blue details, as had previously leaked on social media. While revealing a new kit is a standard procedure for teams before a tournament, the statistics for the 'Albiceleste' wearing their alternate kit in finals do not favor Argentina, as they have always won wearing their traditional sky blue and white. In their entire history, Argentina has played only two finals in an alternate kit, both of which were World Cups: in Italy in 1990 and in Brazil in 2014. In both finals, the 'Albiceleste' wore blue, lost 1-0, and against the same opponent: Germany.
