We maximised adidas' World Cup partnership in in an innovative way that brought the essence of Brazuca to life. The campaign was primarily designed for the adidas target audience, but also to be accessible and relevant - and entertaining - for football fans around the world. Since then, the ball has also played a starring role in competitions such as the FIFA Club World Cup, Copa del Rey, MLS, DFB Pokal as well as numerous international friendlies. According to FIFA, "the informal term 'brazuca' (our fellow) is used by Brazilians to describe national pride in the Brazilian way of life", and "mirroring their approach to football, it symbolises emotion, pride and goodwill to all". [1] [2] The term is also used as slang for "Brazilian" and became well-known abroad due to the Brazilian diaspora. Taipei-based Long Way Enterprise were originally asked to manufacture the ball in their subsidiary YaYork Plastic Products in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, China. [12] The company has been associated with production of Adidas balls since 1997. [2] [13] a b c "adidas brings brazuca into the world". FIFA.com.

adidas today unveiled the Brazuca Final Rio Official Match Ball, the official match ball for the Final of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil. Previous balls have met with varying degrees of approval. A variation on the “Tango” design ran from 1978 to 2002, but since that 2002 World Cup in particular, both the design and the structure of the World Cup ball have been changed with each iteration, often prompting debate among players, especially goalkeepers and dead ball specialists, about how the alterations affect the consistency and flight of the ball.

Prior to the official launch, brazuca and brazuca Final Rio went through a thorough testing process over a two and a half year period involving more than 600 of the world's top players and 30 teams in 10 countries across three continents, making it the most tested ball ever by adidas and ensuring that it is suited to all conditions. The ball is a developmental successor to the Adidas Tango 12 series of balls, with the same bladder and carcass but a different surface structure. [2] [5] The ball weighs 437 grams and has a circumference of 69 centimetres. [6] The ball has been made of six polyurethane panels which have been thermally bonded; the reduction in the number of panels is claimed to increase the consistency in the ball. [2] The Brazuca ball has been stated to avoid aerodynamic problems with the Jabulani ball used in South Africa for the previous World Cup. [7] It is textured to feel more like the Adidas Finale 13, the official UEFA Champions League ball, than the Jabulani.
