Athletistic/Football. The press service of the Dutch club “Heerenveen” presented a new team form for the upcoming season. The kit is made in the club’s traditional colors – blue, red and white. However, the kit designers have arranged these three colors in such a way that the players’ sleeves resemble the flag of Russia.

The club’s fans and followers on social media immediately drew attention to this and expressed their bewilderment:
- “This T-shirt is really impossible, it must be changed quickly for a new one. The flag of Russia is on the sleeve.”
- “Nice uniform, but…remove the red piping at the bottom of the sleeve. It’s unintentionally associated with the Russian flag.”
- “Why didn’t anyone think of just changing the order of the colors on the cover… The idea is good, but the execution, unfortunately, fails.”
- “It’s because of the sleeves that I won’t buy this uniform. Too bad everything else looks nice.”
- “How could such a mistake be made?
- “Maybe it was done inadvertently, but now there is a big Russian flag on the sleeve.”
- “Russian flag on the sleeve, an interesting idea in our time!”.
Some social media users added humor recalling the sale of striker Chider Ejuka to CSKA Moscow in 2020:
- “Are we sacrificing this for the last Ejuke millions?
- “Russian flag on the sleeve – maybe that’s the way to get those millions for Ejuke.”
