The football features the traditional star shapes of a Champions League ball in crisp white, surrounded by a fiery red shade and silver metallic elements.
Paying homage to Oslo, the design celebrates Nordic heritage, collective strength and the modern evolution of the women’s game.
It draws inspiration from Nordic Shield Maidens – legendary female warriors who embodied strength, courage, and independence – and the concept of “Skjaldborg”, the shield wall used during battle, symbolising unity, resilience and interconnection.
The silver metallic elements evoke protective shields and interlocking amour, reinforcing the theme of collective strength, while detailed silver graphics etched into the red blocking reference Nordic carvings.
Tiger motifs – a nod to Oslo’s nickname “Tigerstaden” – are also integrated into the striking look.
