There was no official ball during the first World Cup held in 1930. Argentina supplied the ball used in the 1st half – the Tiento, and Uruguay provided the ball used in the 2nd half – the T-Model.
An interesting fact is that Argentina won the first half by 2-1, but Uruguay ended up winning the game by 4-2, thereby becoming the first World Cup champions. The famous T-Model ball was distinctly larger and heavier than the Tiento supplied by Argentina.
