A Symbol Beyond the Game
The FIFA World Cup 2026 official match ball, named Trionda, is more than just a sporting object — it’s the heart of every match. Every player, referee, and fan connects through it.
This new World Cup ball represents the spirit of three host nations — the United States, Canada, and Mexico and the craftsmanship of Pakistan, where the world’s finest footballs are produced.
The “Made in Pakistan” mark continues to shine globally, especially from Sialkot, a city known for producing world-class sports equipment for decades. The Trionda proudly carries this legacy forward, blending local skill with global innovation.

The partnership between Adidas and Pakistani manufacturers stands as a global example of innovation meeting craftsmanship.
The Science Behind the Trionda
The name “Trionda” combines “Tri” (symbolizing the three host countries) and “Onda” (Spanish for “wave”).
Its tri-wave design reflects the movement, unity, and energy flowing through North America during the 2026 tournament.
This ball’s aerodynamic surface ensures consistent flight paths, reliable bounce, and performance under all weather conditions.
Players have already praised its lighter touch and stable movement hallmarks of top-level football technology.
Why the Ball Matters
Each FIFA World Cup ball tells its own story from Pelé’s Telstar to Messi’s Al Rihla, every edition carries memories of goals, victories, and passion.
In 2026, the Trionda will continue that story connecting continents, cultures, and emotions.
From Sialkot’s workshops to stadiums in Los Angeles, Toronto, and Mexico City, this football will carry the pride of Pakistan into every game of the world’s biggest tournament.
