Uhlsport Ligue 1 & Ligue 2 20-21 Balls Revealed

Uhlsport earlier today presented the new ball for the 2020-21 Ligue 1 season, once again dubbed the 'Elysia' after Greek mythology.

"The Elysium of Greek mythology was the place of virtuous men and heroes. So Ligue 1 is also the place for the heroes of football. Here opponents are defeated, victories are won and dreams come true."

This picture shows the new Ligue 1 football.

The new Ligue 1 ball is fluorescent yellow with navy and fluo red accents to leave a shining impression on the pitch.

From 22 August 2020, at the start of the new season, the stars of Ligue 1 Uber Eats will play with the new Elysia. Are you ready to become a hero too?

In terms of tech, the new official match ball of the French Ligue 1 Uber Eats is characterized by its innovative thermobonding technology, which minimizes the water absorption of the ball.

The design consists of a 24-panel construction. This, together with the use of special materials, gives the football perfect roundness and excellent playing characteristics.

The design also ensures high-speed flight characteristics and maximum feel for the ball. The abrasion-resistant material made of polyurethane with microstructure and additional foam layer as well as the High-Air Retention Bladder with very low air pressure loss underline why the ball is certified as FIFA QUALITY PRO.

2020-21 will be Uhlsport's fourth season as the official ball supplier of Ligue 1. The talented guys over at Planeta Fobal have compiled the last seven Ligue 1 matchballs into one infographic, which includes three Adidas balls.
