I'm in two minds whether this template ought to be red, as that's the colour most associated with this particular team.

Only in one match. Templates should show the first choice colours. The use of any alternative colours would be down to a personal decision by an editor and can lead to an unnecessary precedent and a POV representation. Using first choice colours means that only the shades of colours are for discussion.  Sʟυмgυм • т • c  14:26, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-30T14:26:00.000Z","author":"Slumgum","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Slumgum-2007-03-30T14:26:00.000Z-ArtVandelay13-2006-07-12T12:42:00.000Z","replies":["c-ArtVandelay13-2007-04-15T13:50:00.000Z-Slumgum-2007-03-30T14:26:00.000Z"],"displayName":"S\u029f\u03c5\u043cg\u03c5\u043c"}}-->

I'm not sure that it is POV though - you could make the clear distinction that this is the only team to win their country's only World Cup in their second kit. As I say, this is the colourscheme most associated with this team.

It's a list of a squad for a tournament, not a team for a match. I dislike the idea of applying different criteria to one template based on coincidence. It also looks a mess when sandwiched between white ones.  Sʟυмgυм • т • c  14:50, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-15T14:50:00.000Z","author":"Slumgum","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Slumgum-2007-04-15T14:50:00.000Z-ArtVandelay13-2006-07-12T12:42:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"S\u029f\u03c5\u043cg\u03c5\u043c"}}-->
