Materials :
At the 1990 World Cup in Italy, a negative World Cup record was set in terms of goals (2.21 goals/match), so many blamed the ball Before the next World Cup, FIFA asked adidas to develop a ball that could score more goals. The 1994 World Cup was brought to the USA in part to promote soccer, but if viewers don’t see enough goals, they tune out of the games on TV and think soccer is a boring
sport. The changes to the ball were successful, as the American World Cup had a higher goal average (2.7 goals/match), which they have not been able to surpass in any World Cup since then.
And what were the changes on the ball? Well, the Questra was lighter and more controllable than its predecessor, which favored more skilled players. Five different materials were used during development, and its most significant innovation was the flexible but resistant outer polyurethane layer, which softened the force of impacts thanks to foaming, and it was also beneficial for the headers.
This is due to the fact that the ball was developed at adidas’ ball production center in France and tested by French, German and American professional, amateur and youth teams.
About Questra :
Name of the Questra ball comes from ancient world for the pursuit to the stars (the quest for the stars). Authors aimed to create a more responsive and light ball, what they got fully. By manufacturing the new ball from five different materials and enveloping it in polystyrene foam, Adidas made the Questra more waterproof and allowed for greater acceleration when kicked. Triads which used in the design of Adidas Questra, display the outlines of stars.

Weight (gr) : 380 – 392
Has a signature : Yes
Materials :
The official match ball of the 1954 FIFA World Cup was composed of 18 panels with zigzag edges, perfectly interlocked to each other. (The same panel structure can be seen on many Mitre balls even today.) The ball was completely hand sewn and no longer had laces -just like its predecessor, the Superball from the 1950 World Cup. The colour of the ball was not dark brown any more, rather an attractive yellowish or hell orange. This made the ball more visible during rainy matches where the pitch contained mud. We can see lots of photographs in different newspapers and magazines from 1954 where the players are portrayed with the Swiss World Champion balls as this ball became by far the best selling World Cup ball compared to its predecessors.
About Swiss World Champion Match Ball :
this ball comes from the pre-adidas historical match ball set, it is the exact reproduction of the original Swiss World Champion balls as used at the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland.

Materials :
Many people believe that the Tricolore was the first colored Adidas ball produced for major tournaments, but this is not true: in 1996, colored balls were already used at the European Championships (adidas Questra Europa) and the Olympics (Adidas Questra Olympia). So the statement is only correct like this: the Tricolore was the first colored Adidas World Cup ball. But this is not the only reason why the Tricolore has become an eternally defining ball. After all, this was the last World Cup ball since 1978 with the Tango design. (The Tango design was used for two more years, on the official ball of the 1999 Women’s World Cup as Adidas Icon, on the ball of the 2000 European Championship as Terrestra Silverstream and at the 2000 Olympic Games as Gamarada). The name and colors of the Tricolore ball refer to the French flag. Michel Platini specifically instructed Adidas to include French industry among the motifs on the ball, which is how the turbine came to be. But the Tango model also features the Gallic rooster, whose red crest evokes the manufacturers logo, which is a brilliant design element, and many consider the Tricolore to be the most beautiful Adidas ball to date.
About Tricolore :
Tricolore ball was the first colored ball of world championship. The Adidas Tricolore was used synthetic foam layer with a regular array of durable micro-cells filled with gas. This structure provides durability and good tactile contact with the ball. It’s first time, since 1970, when the World Cup ball was made not in Europe: Adidas Tricolore has been created in Morocco.

Ball Name : The Federale 102
Artist Name : Fatemeh Zarei
Size : 5
Weight (gr) : 380 – 420
Has a signature : Yes
Materials :
The Federale 102 ball was composed by 13 polygonal panels which were cut and perfectly fitted together by hand sewing. Most of the classic balls at that time were 12 panel models (like the ones used 4 years ago in the first World Cup) but the Federale 102 brought an invention of having the laces on a separate panel to inflate the balls. The bladder was enclosed by lace with 6 rows. For the very first time the leather laces of a World Cup ball were replaced by brown cotton,very similar to the ones used on shoes. This represents a small detail but an important improvement, as well. As cotton is much softer than any leather,this encouraged players to head the ball more.
About The Federale 102 :
As the second World Cup was approaching,the fascist regime of Mussolini became so powerful that Italy was chosen to be the host of the 1934 FIFA World Cup.The strong nationalism requested that the balls used in the tournament had to be produced in Italy. In the beginning of the 20th century the majority of footballs were made in Britain and were exported to different countr ies where footba ll became more and more popular and equipment was badly needed. But as previously mentioned, the Italian political power insisted on using Italian made balls for the first World Cup to be hosted in Europe.

Materials :
In 1990, adidas continued the tradition of naming the World Cup ball in honor of the host country. Etrusco Unico commemorates the ancient Etruscan civilization and art, dating back to the 9th century BC. and flourished in the Apennine Peninsula, in today’s Italy. The inscription “Etrusco” is written on the ball in ancient Greek style, while “Unico” is written in the usual Latin letters. Of course, the Tango motif was left on this ball as well, and here three Etruscan-style lion heads were placed on it. The number three referred to the three layers that protected the inside of the ball. The bottom layer was made of a mixture of textile and latex for stability and tear resistance, the next neoprene was responsible for water repellency, while the outer polyurethane foam layer ensured abrasion resistance and good puncture characteristics.
About Etrusco Unico:
The name and design of the ball were invented in honor of the history of ancient Italy and fine art of the Etruscans. Three Etruscan lion heads decorate each of the 20 triads, used in design of ball. Compared with its predecessors Etrusco had improved the quality of water resistance, durability and rebound. It’s the first ball with an internal layer of black polyurethane foam.
