If you want to stand out at 5-a-side, get this kit now.

If you’re watching the African Cup of Nations next month, keep an eye out for one kit in particular.

Irish sports brand O’Neills may be primarily a GAA brand, but they’ve ventured into sports outside Ireland in recent years.

In soccer, they currently supply kits to League 1 side Doncaster, but expect to see plenty of O’Neills in Equatorial Guinea in the next month, as the Democratic Republic of Congo will be rocking some quality Irish gear.

Crystal Palace midfielder Yannick Bolasie tweeted this photo of he and teammate Gabrial Zakuani traveling in their fine O’Neills polo shirts. However, they seem to be using a selfie stick, something we do not approve of.

Here’s a picture of the match jersey from the O’Neills website, two thumbs up from the SportsJOE team.
