The official ball of the FIFA World Cup Final match is printed with the date, location, and two contenders usingFF DIN. As reader Leslie Kuo observed, perhaps this is an unfair advantage for the Germans who see some variation of this typeface every day in their home country — DIN is an industry and governmental standard.

The ball itself is Adidas' "ITC Avant Garde Gothic, Chalet, and Neuzeit Grotesk. Neuzeit? Another German advantage!

Of course, Adidas also comes from Germany, as well. So everything about the ball could be considered German.
