Will England fans be singing ‘Come on you reds' again?

German and English Football Association officials will meet with FIFA tomorrow to thrash out details ahead of Sunday's match in Bloemfontein, including which kit the respective teams will wear.

The Germans are technically the home team having topped Group D so they will have first choice, meaning England are set to play in red again, as they did when winning their last match at a major finals' in Euro 2000 and, of course, in their only World Cup triumph in 1966.

The England players favour the red kit over the white, which they had on when they lost to Germany in Italia 90 and the grey worn in defeat at Euro 96.
