4About it
The classic soccer ball is stitched from 32 panels: 12 black pentagons and 20 white hexagons, a shape mathematicians call a truncated icosahedron. In most of the world the game is called football, and it is the most popular sport on Earth.
Tap it for keepy-uppy, the trick of keeping the ball in the air with your feet: three small kicks, each with its own spin, the last one higher, then it drops and bounces lower each time until it settles. Pick the colors of the panels and the base in the Splash tab.
