Been winded by one of them on a few occasions.

Adidas Tango. For me, first ball that was designed to actually help support the type of play we see today; supposed to be waterproof and was all glossy when new! I remember it being used in Argentina WC of 78; beats a mitre any day!

2010 jubilani, went everywhere when it got kicked. Only Forlan knew how to kick it.

It was indeed ahead of its time. Flew through the air. Wobbled continuously in the air too. Impossible to strike properly it was that slippery. Pingged around like a pinball machine. Awful.

Watching the Chelsea-LCFC game just now. They're struggling with the new ball as well. Scrappy.
