\nNew York
\nFIFA has unveiled the official match ball for the 2026 World Cup, combining high-tech refinements and design details celebrating the three co-host countries \u2014 the United States, Mexico and Canada.
\nThe ball, called Trionda, was again designed by German manufacturer Adidas, provider of the official World Cup balls since the 1970 tournament.
\n\u201cI am delighted and proud to present the Trionda,\u201d FIFA president Gianni Infantino as the ball was revealed at an event in New York on Thursday.
\nThe first World Cup organised by three countries, with 48 teams competing, inspired both the name and the design of the ball featuring red, blue and green colours.
\nIconography from each host nation \u2014 maple leaves from Canada, the eagle from Mexico and stars from the United States also feature, with a triangle referring to the unity of the three countries.
\nLess visible are technological advancements that include deep seams designed to produce \u201coptimal in-flight stability\u201d and embossed icons that improve grip in wet or humid conditions.
\nA motion sensor chip will relay information on the ball\u2019s movement, sending data to the video assistant referee (VAR) system.
\nThe unveiling marks another step in the countdown to the North American World Cup, which will be held June 11-July 19 next year.
\nFIFA has launched its online phased ticket sales procedures, with more than 4.5 million fans from 216 countries and territories entering the presale draw.
\nThe tournament draw will be held in Washington on December 5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
