Adidas x Captain Tsubasa Ball Released - Debuted at the Club World Cup
Dec 25, 2019, by Pat
Update: The Adidas Tsubasa football, which debuted at the Club World Cup this month, has been officially released.
Teaming up with the creators of popular football anime Captain Tsubasa, Adidas launched a top-tier football with a custom design inspired by the series.
Adidas Captain Tsubasa "Official Match Ball" - White / Solar Red / Glory Blue / Black
Dubbed the Captain Tsubasa Official Match Ball (OMB), the ball is based on the panel shaped introduced for last year's World Cup, while the design appears to take cues from the still-to-be-released Euro 2020 ball.
Predominantly white, the upper features a comic-inspired graphic print on black, blue and orange, while the Adidas logo is black and the smaller text white.
The Captain Tsubasa ball is available to buy for $150.

Nottingham Forest Women Wear Training Tops vs Southampton to Avoid Color Blindness Clash
In an unusual kit occurrence, Nottingham Forest Women took to the pitch wearing training tops instead of their official 26-27 away kit during their match against Southampton Women at St Mary's Stadium on Sunday. The late switch was implemented specifically to avoid color blindness visibility issues that would have arisen from a red-versus-green clash. Huge thanks to @david_g_cooper for the spot.
With Southampton wearing their traditional red-and-white home kit, Nottingham Forest's primary alternative option - their green 26-27 away shirt - posed a serious dilemma. Red and green kit pairings are strictly discouraged by governing bodies and accessibility guidelines because they become indistinguishable to individuals with red-green color vision deficiency, which affects roughly 8% of men and 0.5% of women.
Since Nottingham Forest's home shirt is also red, the club resorted to dark training gear with match numbers applied on the back to provide adequate contrast for players, referees, and spectators.
Forest could have worn their light blue kit, but apparently they did not bring it.

The shoe features mismatched accents of dockland-inspired 'Rust Factor' orange alongside 'Steam' green referencing the city's Liver Birds, complemented by a reflective brick pattern, a River Mersey map printed across the insole, a custom 'Liverpool' tongue badge, and 'SCOUSE' lettering visible beneath the outsole.
