VIDEO: adidas EURO2012 match ball - Tango 12

Inspired by tradition, made for today's game. Based on the classic Tango design used during both the FIFA World Cup™ and UEFA EURO™ tournaments during the early 1980s, the adidas Tango 12 features a modern interpretation of the design including a coloured outline inspired by the flags of the two host nations -- Poland and Ukraine. Etched into the Tango design are three bespoke graphics which celebrate the decorative art of paper cutting, a tradition in the rural areas of both host countries and link to the key characteristics of football - unity, rivalry and passion.

Complementing the design, the adidas Tango 12 features a series of triangular panels that are thermally bonded together to ensure a true, stable flight path. Covering each panel of the ball is a grip texture which supports boot to ball contact and enhances ball control. Beneath the outer surface of the ball lies a woven carcass and a new bladder for increased air retention and reduced water uptake.

The adidas Tango 12 will be used on field during EURO2012 which kicks off tomorrow when tournament hosts Poland take to the field against Greece at The National Stadium, Warsaw. All competing federations have received an allocation of thirty Official Match Balls during the week commencing December 5, six months ahead of the tournament, for training and competitive use.
