Overview
- FIFA and Adidas revealed the Trionda Final on Tuesday, announcing the gold, black and white ball for the two semifinals, the third-place match and the final.
- The change is purely cosmetic: FIFA confirmed the Final keeps the Trionda’s four-panel construction, relieved seams and the same materials so player experience and flight behavior remain unchanged.
- The ball continues to use a connected inertial measurement unit (IMU) at its center that records movement roughly 500 times per second, sends data to VAR systems, and recharges by induction.
- FIFA says the new look pays tribute to the 16 host cities and replaces the original Trionda’s green, red and blue palette that referenced the three host countries.
- The special final ball follows a World Cup tradition of distinct match balls for the tournament climax and gives Adidas and broadcasters a high-visibility branding moment during the competition’s largest audiences.
