40.01

For all competition matches, teams must submit the playing attire colours to be worn for each match via the dedicated online tool. The home team (final tournament: Team A) has the first choice as to which of its official sets of playing attire registered online it wears for the match in question. The proposed colours are validated in advance by the UEFA administration.

40.02

If the referee notices on the spot that the colours of the two teams could lead to confusion, a final decision on the colours is taken in consultation with the UEFA match delegate and the UEFA administration. As a rule, in such cases it is the home team (final tournament: Team A) that has to change colours.
