Why a match ball? It's not the flex of having $170 piece of swag that most of your contemporaries won't have. But instead it's have a trusted tool that will allow you to hone your skills on the pitch. A match ball almost magically filter varibles of the pitch. No matter the surface overgrown grass, short grass, patchy buffle grass with spots of caliche, to indoor turf a match ball always seems to roll straight and true. There never seems to be any unnatural extra like the way a cheap over inflated ball will hop off the foot and oddly skip bounce along the ground or the weird shorting of a well placed pass with just too little umpf to get there. The benefit of a match ball isn't dribbling down the field knowing where it is but insted the assurance of where the ball will be with any input. Knowing that when the keep throws to the open mid the ball will cleanly come of the glove and not hang up in the air or fall short. The mid has the knowledge that the ball will trap to their feet and not bobble for interception.  The mid has the confidence that when pushed forward to a streaking striker the ball will arrive within inches of the intended receivers feet. A match ball frees the striker from having to maintain constant visual contact with the ball and one touch past a defender and take a true heads down shot on goal knowing the ball is going to obey the inputted spin placed on it...This is why you choose a match ball...Train like you fight as fight like you train. The Edge will be yours.
