August is coming to an end and sports brands are busy presenting their new kits for the teams playing in the Qatar World Cup, which starts at the end of November. 

In this case, Puma is the company that has published what the Atlas Lions' jersey will look like for the big event for which Morocco has high expectations. 

In this case, the jersey is white with red and green trim on the collars and sleeves. In the centre, perfectly aligned from top to bottom on a darker background, the Puma logo, the crest of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) and the player's number. All of this is surrounded by a circular design. 

The controversy has not been long in coming because the other shirts of teams such as Uruguay, Switzerland and Senegal have a much more striking design for its originality, but which has not gone down well with the fans. 

The first kit in red was presented last May and follows the usual line of recent years, although with a "retro theme" as Puma explains. The Federation's emblem is on the left side of the shirt, with a green stripe across the chest. Both models will be available for 70 euros.

Morocco are expected to wear their second kit for at least one match. Their first opponent will be Croatia, although Modric's side will be visitors for that match. The second will be against Roberto Martinez's Belgium, who have also been kitted out in an Adidas kit. It is likely to be in this match that the white jersey will be worn for the first time. The third match will be against Canada. 

The German company has entered the world of football in recent years with the sponsorship of players such as Neymar and teams such as Manchester City and Milan.
