Stunning Nike 2019 Copa America Final Ball Released

Brazil will face Peru in the 2019 Copa America final on Sunday, July 7th in the Maracana. Now CONMEBOL revealed that the game to determine the new South American champion will have a special edition of the tournament's official ball.

Nike Rabisco 2019 Copa America Final Ball

The CONMEBOL Copa América Brazil 2019 final ball is white, black and gold, based on the same design as the Rabisco ball used in all other matches. Since its creation, Nike Rabisco was designed to value street culture by providing graffiti characteristics that are spread throughout the country.

The swoosh, Nike’s logo, further enhances this story with the effect of aerosol painting and on the other hand, the five-star illustration, referring to the number of times Brazil has hosted the competition, the official logo of CONMEBOL Copa América Brazil 2019 and the FIFA quality certification seal.

The Nike Merlin Rabisco final ball will also include the date of the match, the name of the stadium and the flag of the countries of the match. The special edition is a tribute to the final of the world’s oldest national team tournament.

The final match ball preserves the same technical features that have been used during the tournament. Developed by Nike, Rabisco was created with a larger impact surface, reducing the traditional construction from 12 to just four panels. This solution reduced the number of seams by 40%, as well as eliminating hard points and created an ideal point for a more accurate shot.

One of Rabisco’s greatest innovations was, for the first time, the implementation of “All Control Conditions” (ACC) technology in a ball to provide the best touch and control in all weather and field conditions.

The special edition CONMEBOL Copa América Nike Merlin Rabisco final ball is available to buy from July 4.
