'Is this a scotland kit?'

England fans rage as the new navy blue kit is worn for the first time… reminding them of Scotland

ENGLAND'S brand-new navy blue strip has come under heavy criticism as it reminds Three Lions fans of their arch rivals Scotland.

Fans believe the kit is easy on the eye but their only gripe with the new Nike shirt is that it is too similar to their neighbours.

The new Nike kit was worn for the first time by Gareth Southgate's men as they took on Germany, who were saying farewell to Lukas Podolski.

But as the international friendly kicked off between the two rival nations, fans shared their niggling issues about the new kit on Twitter.
Marcus Rashford, who started on the bench in Dortmund, was at the forefront of the ad campaign as they released photos of new kit.

After announcing the new kit, England's old kit makers, Umbro, were quick to mock Nike.

Umbro tweeted: "England were good when we made kits..."

And Gary Lineker said: "England have gone a tad Scottish with this kit?"

With one joker saying: "This new England kit will have fans singing 'It's just like watching Scotland'."
