Advantages: You look cool

Disadvantages: None

World Cup 2002 was the best international football tournament of this decade, and therefore, playing with the official ball feels intensely cool. In terms of playability, it is more than suitable for back-garden/jumpers-for-goalposts footy - and the thick leather means that sharp hedges and whatnot are no match for this beauty.

The enhanced cushiony feeling of the leather also means that it's somewhat immune to being mauled by a tarmac or gravel. Yeah, you might lose the cool matted colour on the ball, but that is an adequate sacrifice when you're having a cracking game of footy on the playground.

At the end of the day, you get to re-enact the genius of Ronaldo (not the Portuguese one...) and Henry with this ball. The feeling against your boot or trainer (or even your sock, depending on just how casual you really are), is very cool indeed.

I prefer playing with this ball in comparison to the various Nike Premier League models i've bought over the years.

Summary: A must purchase for back-garden football
