Next summer, the biggest names on the continent will gather in Germany for the UEFA European Championships.
24 countries from across Europe will battle it out for the trophy won by Italy at Euro 2020.
To get you more excited, the official match ball, the Fussballliebe, has now been revealed and we’ve got all the important deets!
Play Like The Pros
Designed to get maximum performance from Europe’s elite, the official Euro 2024 match ball is crafted with polyurethane PRECISIONSHELL skin, with a 20-panel construction and deboss grooves for close ball control and an accurate strike.
Rigorously tested to achieve the perfect ball flight, its aerodynamic design allows it to move through the air with swift precision. When the likes of Pedri, Jude Bellingham and Rafael Leão get a hold of this on the pitch, we’re bound to witness some serious ballin’.
Supporting the outer shell is the ground-breaking CTR-CORE that helps it stay in shape whilst encouraging fast, exciting play at the highest level.
The core is made with two separate components, the zero-waste bladder, made from renewable resources that keeps the ball inflated, and the carcass that gives it strength and shape.
For the first time at the Euros, the Fussballliebe will introduce adidas’ Connected Ball technology, designed to help referees on the field.
A Suspension System in the centre holds an IMU motion sensor that provides full insight into every movement of the ball, helping the ref to make quicker and more accurate decisions.
The design of the ball is inspired by the pace and energy of the beautiful game. Black wing shapes with bright, vibrant colours and details nod to the competing countries and the thrilling football they bring to the world stage.
The ball is finished up with an illustration of each stadium along with the name of each host city, as well as the adidas Performance logo and Euro 2024 logo.
