Euro 2024 unveils dazzling silver ball for thrilling semifinal clashes

The semifinals of Euro 2024 will be played on Tuesday and Wednesday. The ball used in the last two stages of the tournament will look different from the one used from the group stage to the quarterfinals. It will predominantly feature a silver color.

The manufacturer of the balls used in the Euro 2024 matches is Adidas. In agreement with the tournament organizer, UEFA, they have prepared a special ball for the last three matches of Euro 2024.

The ball is primarily silver but also features colors similar to those on the German flag. The "Fussballliebe Finale" is decorated with various shapes, with the leading one being a triangle.

The previously used balls had a similar motif, but they were predominantly white. The silver color was agreed upon with the players, who tested whether it affected play in stadiums illuminated by floodlights.

Fussballliebe Finale will be used for the first time on Tuesday at 3 PM ET. In the first semifinal of Euro 2024, the teams of Spain and France will face off. La Roja reached the medal zone after winning all five of their matches. Meanwhile, France drew with three opponents and, before the semifinal, managed to score only three goals in 480 minutes.

The second semifinal is on Wednesday. In Dortmund, the teams of England and the Netherlands will meet. The lineup of this semifinal is also excellent, as both teams are in the top eight of the FIFA rankings. England had its problems before reaching the medal zone but ultimately used extra time to eliminate Slovakia and a penalty shootout to defeat Switzerland.

The final will be the dessert of Euro 2024. The winners of the semifinals will meet on Sunday at 3 PM ET in Berlin. Near the western border of Poland, we will learn the new European champion, as the previous champion Italy was eliminated at the beginning of the knockout stage.
