Prince William and his gorgeous bride Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, seemed a little overdressed for the soccer field ... then again, they ARE royalty.

The stunning couple hit the field in London for the opening of the football Association's National Football Centre at St. George's Park. Lucky England football team!

Kate looked beyond elegant in an olive green belted Reiss coat and black knee-high boots. We have a feeling that coat will be sold out in no time ... if it hasn't already. Yep, it's all about the "The Duchess Effect."

Seems as though the nude photo scandal is behind them. Whew! Next stop for the royals ... Newcastle. Onward and upward!
