Celtic vs Manchester City: Twitter slams City’s garish orange and purple third kit worn for tonight’s Champions League clash
Nike strip was worn for first time when Pep Guardiola's side beat Swansea in EFL Cup last week - but has not got any more popular since
MANCHESTER CITY played their entertaining Champions League clash away to Celtic in a garish psychedelic purple and orange third strip - and Twitter did not like it. At all.
The Nike strip was designed to be worn in the club's away cup competitions both domestically and in Europe this season.
Nike say it "blends two unexpected colours to create a distinctive look that reflects the vibrancy and creativity at the heart of both club and city".
But social media users did not see it this way, and promptly laid into the choice of shirt.
Fans wanting to buy the new strip will have to shell out whopping £60 for the shirt, while the purple shorts cost £28 and socks are £13. A peculiar purchase.
