I agree. There must be a reason for the two red ones. What about unbalanced (as in number of teams per alliance) alliances? For example, perhaps the red alliance is made up of two teams, the blue one, and the yellow one:
red alliance: two teams
Blue alliance: one team
Yellow (new) alliance: one team
(I guess the yellow and blue would really be "alliances"
when you are a red alliance, you have strength in numbers, but goals scored would count less (or half) of goals scored by yellow or blue.

This would add another layer of complexity to the game, and I also agree with other's posts that a 2x2x2 and definitely a 3x3x3 would get way too crowded.

Thats my two bits
