  • The EFL have defended the ball used in Carabao Cup matches after Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta suggested it may have been a factor in defeat to the Newcastle.

The English Football League (EFL) has defended the use of the new Carabao Cup ball following criticism from Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta. Arteta expressed his dissatisfaction with the ball's quality after Arsenal's penalty shootout loss to West Ham in the Carabao Cup, suggesting it was not up to standard. The EFL responded by stating that the ball, designed by Puma, had been thoroughly tested and approved by FIFA, meeting all necessary performance criteria. They emphasized that the ball had been in use since the start of the season across various competitions without prior complaints. The EFL also highlighted that the ball's design was intended to enhance visibility and performance, and they were surprised by Arteta's comments given the ball's widespread acceptance in other matches.
