Truncated

Writer: ArulshaArulsha

The iconic ball with a regular pattern of hexagons and pentagons (see truncated icosahedron) did not become popular until the 1960s, and was first used in the World Cup in 1970.

Modern ball passing tactics

The earliest reference to a game of football involving players passing the ball and attempting to score past a goalkeeper was written in 1633 by David Wedderburn, a poet and teacher in AberdeenScotland.[59]Nevertheless, the original text does not state whether the allusion to passing as ‘kick the ball back’ (‘Repercute pilam’) was in a forward or backward direction or between members of the same opposing teams (as was usual at this time)[60]
