The ball, Nike's Total 90 Ascente, was on display at the federation's headquarters in Milan by Lega Calcio president Giancarlo Abete.

Tested in a wind tunnel with 'micro-grooves', which make it more aerodynamic, the Ascent is red and silver as opposed to the red and white ball seen last season.

The same ball is set to be used in the Premier League - will we see more rocket shots from the centre circle?

Do you think changing the ball so often makes the games better or actually reduces the skill?
