2026 World Cup Ball: The design inspiration comes from three host countries, which can track the track of the ball

FIFA officially updated social media updates and released the 2026 World Cup match balls.

FIFA officially released the game ball for next year's World Cup. This football is named TRIOND. The design is inspired by the three co-sponsors of the event - Canada, Mexico and the United States. It uses intelligent interconnection technology to track the trajectory of the ball and provide accurate support to the referee team.

This football has a number of key performance innovations, and the crust structure uses intentionally deepened seams to provide optimal flight stability by ensuring sufficient uniform distribution of drag during the sphere flight. Additionally, the embossed icon, visible only at close range, enhances grip when hitting a ball or dribbles in wet or hot conditions.

football is equipped with a state-of-the-art 500Hz motion sensor chip, providing insight into every element of the sphere's motion. This technology sends accurate data to the video assistant referee system in real time to improve the referee's decision-making ability, including related judgments for offside events.
