My mom had got back from Europe at the time, and she had visited a sports store in Portugal that was selling the ball. She came back with match replicas, and some souvenirs. Above all she came back with an official match ball. We used to use the ball during recess, and I would often pull the ball mid game. I loved that ball, it moved like no other. I played baseball for almost of my life, but during recess it was always football (soccer). The jabulani ball made me want to be a football player. I think it’s insane how these changes in the equipment we use can have such a huge impact on the sports we play. More over the confidence we have when playing the sport. I miss that ball, and think about it now that the World Cup has returned.

I remember being annoyed by this tournament because of this ball. Turned football into futsal because you couldn’t play a pass in the air and minus the handful of highlights, the game was boring because, as the midfielders said, it was nearly impossible to control a pass in the air. I seem to remember a stat saying this World Cup had the fewest shot attempts in the modern era as it was hard to create opportunities, however, I can’t find the numbers anywhere. But despite FIFA and Adidas standing by it…one would assume there’s a reason it hasn’t been repeated.

@@SRTifiable Firstly you should always look to switch through a central player because you're more likely to turnover regardless of the ball. Big crossfield switches are either a last resort or theres a glaring hole in defence being exploited either way it's the least accurate way to move the ball from one side to another. You say reduced viability of tactics, I say accerating archaic tactical systems demise. The trends in world football was already very much gearing towards possession and quick passing plays by 2010.

@@damianstarr1696Fun fact, if you take away the ability to play a long ball in the air when a defense does make a mistake, then you don’t have to provide coverage across the field. All players collapse to a close location, leading to congested passing lanes, in turn reducing the viability of tiki-taka play because you have nowhere to go. It really isn’t that hard to figure out how removing the threat of a long ball affects literally all aspects of the game. The 2010 WC displayed this perfectly. As stated by another individual, this was one of the lowest scoring world cups in the 32 team era…because the ball rarely made it out of the midfield. Teams could not quickly release attacks to take advantage of an overly aggressive offense to counter, the ball mostly got jumbled up in the midfield where possession went back and forth because you could commit 3-4 defenders to press an attacker…and they would just go back and forth this way. Playing a long ball when there are viable options to progress up the pitch via short quick passing is most certainly not the intelligent footballing decision, but if you remove the possibility, like the Jabulani did, you end up with a slow, congested, boring game instead of the high tempo game that we all know and love. Unless you’re Italian. Park that bus 🚌 Anyway, I’ve wasted enough time on this. If you don’t get how changing one aspect of the game can change the entire game, I don’t know how else to help you understand.

@@SRTifiable Mate you're just spouting meaningless jargon... If you run out of space playing passing football, you go backwards and reset because that is now where the space is. That draws out their defensive lines and thus creates new space to exploit in opposition half again. We've had this figured out for quite a while now... Also whilst I don't dispute it being the lowest scoring WC but the narrative being spouted that if the ball really was that unpredictable for keepers to guage then surely there should've been more goals?

As an Australian, coming into the world cup, a lot of people didn't understand why Brett Holman kept on being selected when he constantly had KZbin compilation videos of him being uncoordinated. Then at the 2010 world cup, with Australia needing a significant win against Serbia for a chance to make it to the RO16, Holman scores a goal from distance which was way beyond what any Australian fan thought he was capable of. I don't recall a goal scored from range at that stage of the world cup yet, so I like to think Brett Holman mastered the Jabulani, or was at least misunderstood until he got the opportunity to play with a wacky ball.

i think majority of us played at least once with Jabulani...and ball just moves different than other balls do. Unpredictibility factor with that ball was crazy. You never knew at what point in air ball will start falling and since of it's "perfect sfere" it was so damn hard to catch it with both hands and feet. I remember Lampard's free kick, it was 28-30 meters from goal free kick and ball went up in air like i've never seen in my life. Like a damn bullet probably 15 meters in air. Few years ago they did testing on that ball on ball throwing machine and shots kept bouncing to the left for no particualr reason with some of most awkward rotation possible. Than after some time, without changing anything, ball started bouncing to it's right side. It's one of most iconic balls ,but it was complete dumpster fire in terms of quality. Fun, but it wasn't fun for players nor goalkeepers. Maybe Forlan lol

Greetings, what I find strange is why footballers who used it in other tournaments & league games didn't complain about it so much. If it did improve footballer's abilities, then the 2010 World Cup would have a higher goals per game average than other World Cup tournaments but it didn't. Maybe the footballers of the 2010 World Cup just were startled at new features in a new ball but I don't think it took away or added anything to the game, goalkeepers made great saves & players scored great goals & missed goals. Forlan & Muller are great players , that's why they played well with the ball, not because the ball made them better. Germany with Muller scored 7 against Brazil (not North Korea) with the Brazuca. It's not the ball.

there irony is Jabulani means "be happy". noone was happy about it (except Forlan of course).

Everyone plays with the same ball, in the same conditions on the same pitch. It doesn't matter if you're playing football with a rugby ball, the game is equally difficult for either team. Football is also meant to entertain and this ball did just that. The way Diego Forlan mastered the unpredictable nature of the ball and delivered on the pitch was a highlight I'll remember for the rest of my life. The ball is rarely even a thought in your average football match, but this ball delivered its part in what was one of the best world cups of all time. Football is meant to entertain and this ball added an extra layer of unpredictability to games. It delivered in spectacular fashion and it was beautiful.

Jabulani, Vuvuzela, and English GK 😅 is the reasons why 2010 world cup is so iconic.

Played it in a youth championship match. As soon as anyone got a decent shot on goal, it was a lottery for the keeper. It literally started dropping mid air like a Ronaldo free kick, but came from the foot of a 15-year old. Bad for professional keepers, unplayable for youth and lower league teams.

My grandparents gifted one original Adidas Jabulani to my brother and me... we played with it a ton and never had problems (though we were young and might never have hit 55mph)

I loved that ball and the vuvuzelas. What a unique worldcup! Bought myself a Forlan jersey after his first goal and he did not disappoint! But I miss most Iniesta and Xavi together - like a beautiful ballet. Interesting to learn that they disliked the ball.

Penalty kicks are too close range to make much difference. 20+ meters is where the distance was enough to cross the "speed threshold" from above to below 55 mph and freak out the keepers. Having said that, I've watched many free kick compilations, and great free kick specialists (like Juninho) can make any ball do a "knuckleball". Watch a compilation of his free kicks, and you'll see a great number of knuckleballs from 20+ meters using all the various balls spanning his career from the early 1990s until 2013.

As an F1 fan, I don't understand why they didn't stick with bringing new balls into the game regularly. It's the same as regulation changes. It mixes up the sport, it gives opportunities for younger players to learn these changes and become better than their senior peers. For fans of CSGO, this is the AWP speed nerf. Same thing. Keeps things interesting. But no. Rich teams wanna stay rich.

In cricket, balls are highly scrutinized to act the same, new and old ball are taken into a factor, humidity is also a factor but cricket mostly depends on the pitch. Wow, how much different these games are!
