The 2018 World Cup ball was also sanctioned
The 2018 World Cup ball in Russia was sanctioned by two prominent European companies
The famous company Adidas and EA Sports, the creator of sports video games, released a selected film of World Cup balls that are used in the FIFA 2023 game. In this film, there is no mention of the 2018 World Cup balls, and this issue has faced a strong reaction from football fans on social media.
Many football fans have asked why the 2018 World Cup ball, known as Telstar 18, is not present in the game released by EA Sports, or where the 2018 World Cup ball in Russia is.
Russian club and national football were sanctioned by the European Football Association and the World Football Federation after the start of the war in Ukraine.
