England goalkeeper Joe Hart believes that the new Euro 2012 ball will favour strikers and hinder goalkeepers at this summer's tournament.
There was uproar in South Africa two years ago, when Adidas's Jabulani ball was widely condemned by the players.
It was criticised for dipping and swerving too much when struck with velocity.
The new Tango 12 ball, which will be used in Poland and Ukraine, has been redesigned with that criticism in mind.
However, the Manchester City man has said that he is still not a fan of the new ball.
"They're really quick," revealed Hart. "When the lads get hold of them with a quality strike, they really move and when the Belgium lad hit the post on Saturday I couldn't even get a token dive in.
"But we're becoming accustomed to this now. The Jabulani really took everyone by surprise. Football's changing and they want the ball moving around. You have to adjust as a goalkeeper. There's no complaints, it's the same for everyone."
Adidas launched the Tango 12 ball in December.
