December 9 – The fall of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s regime has prompted the country’s football federation to change the national team’s kit and logo from red to green.
On Sunday, Syrian rebels captured the capital, Damascus, without resistance following a swift advance that forced Assad to flee to Russia, ending a 13-year civil war and six decades of autocratic rule by his family.
As the events unfolded, the Syrian FA announced it was changing the colour of its logo and the kit of the men’s first team to mark a new age for sport in the country.
