Haiti are required to alter their World Cup kit design shortly before their opening match against Scotland. Multiple reports say FIFA tells the Haiti team that the shirts do not comply with its regulations because they depict war-related imagery. Haiti make the change only days ahead of the tournament start, with one outlet specifying the adjustment is made four days before their opener. The affected design includes a depiction of a war scene on the jersey. FIFA’s decision results in the team having to modify the kit so it meets the organization’s rules before they play Scotland. The reports do not describe what the original design showed in full or what the final replacement design looks like, but they agree that FIFA’s prohibition of the war imagery is the reason for the redesign and that timing is tight ahead of Haiti’s first match.
