Adidas Present the Ball for Euro 2020 Semi-Finals and Final
Adidas have unveiled the ball which will be used for the Euro 2020 semi-finals and final, and includes nods to Wembley Stadium where the last three games will be played.
The Uniforia Finale, as it is called, has graphics in red, white and silver to reflect the selection of London to host the culmination of the tournament.
"Extra details have been added to the ball in order to celebrate the location and the importance of the final three matches in the tournament, while also ensuring that the ball stands out on the field of play," a UEFA statement read.
"These include watermark details of Wembley Stadium - where the semi-finals and final will be played, as well as an extra white print for a light appearance.
"These features are contrasted with signal green, red, cyan and pink brushstrokes, inspired by iconic London symbols and traditional colours that sit against a dark background which represents the London sky at night."
