Footballs made in China have won the praise of Brazilians.
A Brazilian football forward named Rafael Gonzalez bought a football online from China two years ago. After trying the durable ball, he said it is of high quality. The Brazilians also like the bright colors of the ball. “The colors are unique,” said Gonzalez. He summarized, “Brazil is good at playing football, and China is good at making footballs.”
Actually, the 2014 World Cup in Brazil used footballs from China. In an automated factory in Dongguan in southern China’s Guangdong Province, a football is produced every three minutes.
It may cost 20 USD to buy a football made in Brazil. But the cost is half if it is from China, and with free shipping. What’s more, it takes only 10 days for a football to be shipped from China to Brazil with China’s cross-border logistics.
