Uruguay Soccer Jersey

History

At the begining of the twentieth century, the teams of Argentina and Uruguay played continuously between them. The Uruguayan teams dreamed of beating the powerful Alumni team from Argentina, which only lost 2 tournaments between 1900 and 1911 (this is the year they disappeared). The 10^th of April of 1910, in Parque Central, River Plate of Montevideo beat a Alumni 2 to 1, using a sky blue jersey because their regular jersey was similar to the one of Alumni. At the sixth edition of Limpton Cup, the argentinians proposed that Uruguay changed its striped jersey, which was similar to the one of Argentina, because that uniform was officially adopted by “Argentine Association Football League”.

The delegate from Montevideo Wanderers, another Uruguayan team, Ricardo Le Bas, proposed that in order to honor the victory of River Plate against Alumni, the Uruguayan national team should use a sky blue jersey. Le Bas initiative, supported by the president of the league, Hector R. Gomez (who made this requests as one of his own), was approved by all the members of the parliament of the Uruguayan league. The 15^th of August of 1910, Uruguay, wearing for the first time the sky-blue jersey (or “Celeste” as it is well known) beat  Argentina 3 to 1 in Montevideo Wanderers field, in Belvedere).

The original jersey color was pink, which was quickly abandoned for thin black-and-white vertical stripes. The legend has it that in 1906 Boca played another team that used these colors, to decide who would get to keep them. Boca lost, and decided to adopt the colors of the flag of the first boat to subsequently sail into the port at La Boca which was the 4146 ton freighter Drottning Sophia, sailing from Copenhagen.As the boat was from Sweden, yellow and blue were adopted as the new team colours. The first version had a yellow diagonal band, which was later changed to a horizontal stripe.[AffomaticEbay] boca juniors jersey [/AffomaticEbay]
