New Delhi, Apr 1: Sportswear giant Adidas on Friday unveiled Al Rihla – the official match ball for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
It is the 14th successive ball that Adidas has created for the FIFA World Cup, designed to support the game at high speed as it travels faster in flight than any other World Cup ball. Al Rihla translates as “the journey” in Arabic and has been inspired by the architecture, iconic boats, and the flag of Qatar.
Al Rihla is the first ball in the 92-year history of the tournament which will directly contribute to raising funds to positively impact lives across the world, with 1 percent of the ball’s net sales going to the Common Goal movement. (PTI)
