    There's no doubt that official match balls are a lot of money, which is why you don't see them very often, let alone get the chance to use one. But you're different. Either you've saved up for one or found a great deal on one from a previous season, you're getting one, but don't know which one to pick? I'm here to help.
    In today's video I break down what the actual difference is between a Nike match ball and an Adidas match ball. Comparing the Flight ball to the Champions League match ball, which one is better and what are the differences that you're going to feel when using them? If you're thinking of buying your first match ball, you've come to the right place. Which out of these two would you pick?

    I've played with both match balls and here is my review on each:
    Nike:
    - Stiffer ball
    - true flight (Reacts accurately to how you strike it)
    - Stable in the air
    - fun to ping around
    - Feels lighter than the Adidas ball
    - If pumped too much, it will feel like a rock
    - Responsive
    Adidas:
    - Cushion feeling
    - Very responsive
    - soft touch
    - fun to ping around
    - even if you pump it a lot, the soft material makes it feel light
    - Reacts accurately to how it is struck
    Final Verdict:
    If you want a ball that provides the best responsiveness and touch when you play a match, I would go with the bike ball as it is reliable and accurate when passed around.
    If you like the soft touch and pingy sensation, then I would go with the Adidas ball.
    Great footballs to use, but it comes down to what you prefer when you play.

      Literally the most accurate review, ive played with both for hundreds of hours and know because my adidas telstar ball lasted so long and never had issues really till its death, but after a while my nike ball became an actual rock because it had too much air, one time my friend said oh hell nah im not playing with the rock lmao. Once you over inflate that ball it sorta wont feel the same after, or if you just leave it overinflated for too long.

    I have 2 champions league footballs and 1 Telstar. If I have the money, definitely not buy an adidas football cause the thermal bonding is very delicate and the durability is ridiculous short :(, the valve also fails in a huge mount of pieces and I'm so sorry by the beautifull design and performance but never ever will buy another Adidas ball, so I prefer the Select brillant TB or a Nike/Puma football without stiches.

      When you put them down gently on a flat hard surface like a table top, do they stay still or do they tend to roll till it comes to a standstill on their own ? Or do you have to put them down in a certain direction for them to stay still ? Thanks.

    Why do we need match balls?
    I’ve never owned a ball for more than a few months

      because the match ball will last for more than a few months

    adidas ball looks like a plastic ball which we used to buy from a normal mini marker by 5$ when we were small kids,
    Nike looks more technologically
