Coincidence - Adidas 2022 World Cup Ball Panels Create Shape Similar to Trefoil Logo
When randomly cutting out 3 panels of the Adidas 2022 World Cup ball, there is a cutout that resembles the Trefoil logo. Now people are questioning if this is a coincidence or was intended by Adidas.
It is pure coincidence by 99%
However, while it would be ultimately clever by Adidas to have such a masked branding, it is almost 100% certain that this is pure coincidence.
According to Adidas, the ball has been "designed from the inside out using data from rigorous testing in Adidas labs, wind tunnels, and on-pitch". The result is an innovative new 20-piece panel shape that randomly shows the Trefoil logo.
