The official match-ball of the 2014 FIFA World Cup is called the Brazuca. The name was selected by a public vote organized by the local organisers in Brazil. The ball has been manufactured by Adidas. The word Brazuca is a slang that the Brazilians use to describe national pride. The Brazuca ball has been stated to be more aerodynamic than the Jabulani ball used in South Africa for the previous World Cup.
