Rattler Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 Just read this quote re: negative reception to the ball... Adidas has said that the ball had been used since January 2010, and that most feedback from players had been positive. A spokesperson said the company was "surprised" by the negative reaction to the ball, and highlighted that the frequent pre-tournament criticism a new ball receives inevitably dies down as the tournament proceeds.[31] Adelaide University professor Derek Leinweber has sided with Adidas saying "If you want the goalkeeper to design the ball, they will give you an iron ball that sits at the centre of the field."[32] Quote
