Official match ball
What is the official match ball for Euro 2024?
The official match ball for Euro 2024 is manufactured by Adidas, and is called the Fussballliebe - meaning 'love of football' in German.
It will be the first match ball in European Championships history to feature Connected Ball Technology, the same technology used in the World Cup 2022 Al Rihla ball. A sensor inside of the ball will help VAR with semi-automated offside decisions, while also providing 500 pieces of a data a second to detect when the ball is, or crucially isn't, touched.
The ball features a striking design which Adidas claims "represents the movement of the ball and the energy of the game through prominent black wing shapes accentuated with colourful edges, curves and dots."
Kits

Each nation at Euro 2024 will have bespoke shirts for the tournament, to be released from now until June.
