The Story Behind the England 1997/99 Away Jersey
Under Glenn Hoddle, England qualified for the 1998 World Cup in France with a squad featuring Alan Shearer, David Beckham, Paul Scholes, Tony Adams and an 18-year-old Michael Owen. The England 1997/99 Away Jersey comes from this period.
At the World Cup, Owen announced himself to the world with a stunning solo goal against Argentina in Saint-Étienne, in a 2–2 draw that England lost on penalties. The red away shirt of this era brings back memories of that famous night and of England’s 1966 World Cup win, when the team also wore red.
