2020 champions league final soccer ball released

    Adidas finale instabuli ball

   

Just in time for the start of the knockout stage, Adidas has unveiled the brand-new Champions League Finale ball, which will also be used at the Istanbul final on May 30.

Based on the same template as the regular 19-20 CL ball, the Final ball features a bold graphic in pink and blue, showing the an aerial view of Istanbul and the Bosporus strait.

The stars are white and feature the famous Starball logo as well as the official graphic for the 2020 Final.

Tech-wise, this ball is the same as the one used during the group stage. It's similar but not identical as the 18-19 Champions League ball as it features a slightly updated panel shape.

          

The trademark star panels are there but instead of touching at the outer points the edges slightly overlap - this is likely for better durability. The upper structure and materials are the same as those that were introduced for the Adidas 2018 World Cup football, the Adidas Telstar 18.

The Adidas Champions League Final Istanbul 2020 ball was released on February 18, just in time for the knockout stage.
