UEFA request Barcelona and Atlético Madrid to wear away kits in Champions League quarterfinal

If you ever had trouble watching Barcelona and Atlético Madrid play because they uniforms look similar, that will not be a problem.

UEFA has requested both teams to wear their away kits in their Champions League quarterfinal matchup, at Camp Nou and the Vicente Calderón, specifically Barça's yellow (or gold) kit with a Senyera in the back, and Atleti's beautiful dark blue outfit.

The reason for the ruling is simple: it was hard to tell them apart on TV in La Liga games this season, and UEFA wants to solve that problem.
