Comment
Trivia:The Tango España by Adidas was the official match ball of the 1982 FIFA World Cup held in Spain. It had improved water resistant qualities through its rubberized seams. These proved to be not very durable and resulted in the ball having to be changed several times during some games. This ball was the last genuine leather ball to be used in the World Cup.
