While the focus will be on football, a major tournament would not be complete without pre-event hype surrounding the uniforms.

Adidas have released images of some of the designs their teams will be wearing, as well as information on where fans can get their hands on them.

France will sport a lighter shade of blue than normal for their home kits and a more traditional white away kit.

The modern design sees a pattern weaved into the first-choice shirts and shorts, which are paired with red socks.

Germany

Beaten Euro 2022 finalists Germany will hope to go one better this time and Martina Voss-Tecklenburg has plenty of stars at her disposal.

The two-time world champions’ away kit pays tribute to the forests that run through the country with various shades of green featured in a bespoke graphic.

Netherlands

Spain were beaten in the quarter-finals by eventual champions England at last year’s Euros and are hoping to reach the last eight of the World Cup for the first time.

Their second strip pays homage to the coral reefs of the Iberian coast — a familiar sight Down Under.

Sweden

Sweden have never won a World Cup having been beaten in the 2003 final by Germany.

Finishing third in the last edition, they will be sporting away shirts which celebrate Scandinavia’s iconic glaciers.

United States

United States will arrive Down Under in style as they look to earn their third successive World Cup crown — and their fifth overall.

Their white home shirt is emblazoned with a paint-drop pattern which makes every jersey unique, in a nod to American expressionism.
