People get used to watching their teams in certain colors, and this time, Atlético Madrid fans did not like it one bit to see their favorite club dropping red to add blue to their kit.
The team revealed a special kit earlier this day, which comes as a tribute to their founding members that used a smiliar kit, the main difference being their shorts. For this edition, as seen on the pictures published by Los Colchoneros, the short they will be using is going to be blue.
The Spanish side revealed that the club will only be using this jersey on Wednesday's match, although some of their supporters urged them to wear it until the end of the season. Others criticized the jersey's pattern and even the use of its sponsor, which ruins the whole experience of making it a retro kit.
Have a look at Atlético's posts and make up your mind. Top or flop? You be the judge.

This Wednesday our players will wear a kit inspired by the one we used in the first match in our history.
