Nike promises to ‘provide countless spectacular moments in the new season’ due to its patented technology on the ball.
The ball is constructed with engineered hexagons and pentagons, with a 360-degree sweet-spot. Advanced technology ensures that all the pieces of the ball are stitched evenly together to make an as-close-to-perfect sphere as possible.
Nike claims that research has been conducted into its state-of-the-art engineering for the past two years, with experiments being conducted by professional footballers and by laboratory researchers.
The end result is a ball that pushes the boundaries for consistency, accuracy and visibility, according to the manufacturer.
The ball will be designed with a red stripe for next season, to help players make split second judgements.
According to the company: "A new, red asymmetrical band encircling the ball generates a more powerful visual signal as it rotates, providing a quicker read on ball location, spin rate, speed and trajectory from any angle. It's designed to help athletes make better decisions at top-speed, when the pressure is on."
so much for a ball..![]()
to be honest i prefer nike ball
it has more control unlike adidas which is much bouncy.

if the ball refuses to go into a net no matter how much u attack, it won't go in.
