Uhlsport Unveil The Elysia 2021 Ligue 1 Official Match Ball

Getting a mid-season refresh, Uhlsport have unveiled the Eylsia 21, official match ball for the Ligue 1 Uber Eats, and it will debut in the Trophée des Champions tonight, when Paris Saint-Germain face Olympique de Marseille.

The 20/21 Ligue 1 season continues, with PSG leading the way as expected, but for the second half of the season, the official match ball gets a fresh new look, with Uhlsport dressing the Elysia in fresh navy blue, fluorescent red and grey colours. Its name makes a double reference to the Elysian field of the mythology "reserved to the virtuous men and heroes" and place of celebration of the French victories. Expect Neymar, Mbappé, Payet, Thauvin and the rest to be thrashing this into the back of the net from tonight onwards.

The Elysia match ball concentrates the quintessence of the technological know-how of Uhlsport, and its exclusive and innovative design has been especially developed for Ligue 1. It’s characterised by its innovative thermobonding technology, which minimises the water absorption of the ball. 

The design consists of a 24-panel construction, and this, together with the use of special materials, gives the ball perfect roundness and excellent playing characteristics. The design also ensures high-speed flight characteristics and maximum feel for the ball. So everything you want from a football then. Sorted.
