The design, structural and visual, of the official World Cup ball is something that fans look forward to every four years. Interestingly, Argentina led the game 2-1 at half-time, before the ball changed and Uruguay outscored its neighbours 3-0, with its ball, in the final half to win the first-ever World Cup, The 12-panel design of the World Cup balls continued until 1954 when an innovative 18-layer ball, named the ‘Swiss World Champion’ was introduced for the Swiss World Cup. The first-ever multicoloured World Cup ball was introduced in France 1998, with red, blue and white representing the French flag and was aptly named ‘Tricolore.’ ‘Fevernova’ of the 2002 World Cup ushered in a new era with a triangular design that departed from the ‘Tango’ layout. Attackers were in awe of the accuracy provided, while goalkeepers, like Gianluigi Buffon, criticised the ball for its ‘crazy bouncing.’ Germany 2006 marked a new beginning as Adidas produced two ball designs - one specifically for the World Cup final. For the upcoming Qatar World Cup, Adidas revealed the official match ball named ‘Al Rihla’ on March 2022.
