The Fiji U20 rugby match with the Hurricanes under-20 has been described as the worst jersey clash of all time.

On the All Blacks YouTube channel, both teams were allowed to take the field in strikingly similar uniforms.

The Hurricanes demolished the Fiji U20 side 65-10 during the first match.

The similar uniform clash took things to a whole new level at the Super Rugby under-20 tournament in Taupō at the weekend and questions have been raised about whether both teams were allowed to take the field in nearly identical white and black uniforms.

The Hurricanes’ senior teams traditionally wear yellow and black but the jerseys worn by the under-20 team were primarily white with yellow swirls, which were hard to make out on the Sky Sports broadcast once the camera zoomed out, making for a direct clash with Fiji’s strip.

The win means the Hurricanes will advance into the semi-finals on Wednesday, while the Fijians will drop to the play-offs for the fifth to eighth positions.
