Why FIFA Stopped Making Round Footballs 😳🤯 #shorts

The Jabulani is the reason soccer balls aren’t perfect spheres and here is the full story.

"so which ball did your mom get"

"A truncated icosahedron"

[clipsedrag]

“Impossible to control the trajectory of their passes”

“Some strikers mastered it”

[Shirmos]

“Hey wanna play foot-truncated icosahedron” 💀

[Sofasit]

Imagine Roberto Carlos doing swaz with jabulani

[That_DoDo_Bird]

Legend has it waka waka still gives goalie keepers trauma

[H]

This ball was a living nightmare for all keepers

Except Suarez, he mastered it.

[GOAT]

“Impossible to control the trajectory of their passes"

“Also Uruguayan guy named Diego Forlan"

FIFA does not design the balls. Adidas designed the Jabulani. Maybe you got it confused with the "FIFA quality" badge thingy on the ball, but that is just to show that FIFA might potentially use this type of football for their competitions.

Jabulani is GOATed. And I for one, think that maybe if similar balls were implemented in full seasons as opposed to a 1 month tournament that happened every 4 years, maybe players and keepers would have actually adapted to it, raising the level in general, but that's just my humble opinion.

Okay, now who the fuck decided to name this ball Elon Musk’s son name 💀💀

He's wrong. It's still round, but it's the panels and the seams that create the deviations as wind passes over it, this also createa a mini drag which stabilises the ball mid air. A completely round ball with no texture or grip and lower panels means the ball deforms as its struck and the center of rotation shifts create those crazy S bends (Riberto Carlos freekicks)

Jabulani exists
Diego Forlan:- Is for me 👉👈

[wcubbin]

Adidas (not Fifa) designed the ball and marketed it as 'the roundest ball ever'. But it wasn't the roundess of the ball that was the issue, because unless the ball is rock hard, it will deform when kicked, so spends very little time in a state of equilibrium.
It was actually the smoothness of the ball that was the issue. The airflow over a smooth ball will have a large aerodynamic effect on the ball, causing it to swerve. A less smooth surface will create a turbulent boundary layer in the airflow, reducing aerodynamic effects on the ball. Its the same reason golf balls have dimples, to help them fly straight. The turbulent boundary layer also gives a small reduction in drag by detaching the low-pressure air zone in the ball's wake from the ball, preventing it from effectively sucking the ball in the opposite direction of travel.

Tbh best part of this World Cup for me is waka waka e e💀💀

[kaskovic]

Legend says that it’s still a round ball regardless of all the bull in this video

[Strimer]

The only time Diego Forlan was cooking

[thediscussion]

We in south Africa will always love the jabulani here in south Africa it gave wingers and strikers an advantage i
Remember how dangerous Robben and sneider were when they played with that ball

[sayamnasir]

Suarez, Diego Forlan, Thomas Muller all mastered the Jabulani

[LeBronJamesNBA]

Why did this man come out of nowhere to ruin my childhood

[RankGamingAA]

“But if the balls we use today aren’t round” 💀
