They should just use a standard/official ball and not change it. They just want to sell more balls.

How the new World Cup ball was designed to not influence the gamesThey should have put in more effort into training their refs. Senegal/Poland was an officiating disaster.

The 2010 Jabulani was as horrid as the constant mindless din of the vuvuzelas. South Africa should be banned from ever hosting again.
The Jabulani was worse than a beach ball. Its tendency to sail and float robbed the tournament of goals no matter how conservative or wide-open teams played.

I’m sure that’s Germany’s excuse for getting taken to the woodshed by Mexico the other day.

EVERYBODY hated the Adidas Jabulani soccer ball because they didn't properly wind tunnel test the ball design and forgot that the flight of the ball is even more affected by the altitude of several South African football stadiums. That's why when the Adidas Brazuca ball was designed, the first thing the ball design underwent was a huge amount of wind tunnel testing.

I watched a Tunisian player today fall on the ground, writhing in pain after some incidental contact with an England player. He stopped, to glance if the referee was watching, then started writhing in pain again.
The fake injury acts should become a competition in their own right.
