    KUALA LUMPUR: The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) and Kelme have unveiled the official match ball of the AFC Asian Cup Qatar, marking a new milestone on the path to the highly anticipated competition, set to take place from Jan 12-Feb 10 in Qatar.

    The ball, VORTEXAC23 is designed to capture the excitement, passion, and speed of the game of football while incorporating the iconic maroon colours of the host nation, Qatar.

    The ball’s design also parallels the emblem of the Cup, which is featured in the centre, drawing inspiration from the emblem’s unique colours and shapes to encapsulate the spirit of the competition as well as that of Asian football.

    The ball was designed by the AFC’s official global supporter of national team competitions, Kelme, exclusively for the AFC Asian Cup Qatar.

    The ball has also undergone extensive technical testing to ensure it meets the highest standards of performance, quality, durability, and readiness for use in competition.

    AFC general secretary Datuk Seri Windsor John said: “The AFC are delighted to mark our latest milestone in our journey ahead of the upcoming edition of Asia’s crown jewel – the unveiling of the official match ball for the Asian Cup with our valued partner Kelme.

    “Similar to the journey of the Asian Cup, Kelme have established their presence as one of the world’s leading brands in sport and we are confident that the innovative design and technology produced will provide Asia’s top 24 teams with a match ball of the highest quality.
