About this symbol
The football joined Unicode in 2009 with the ARIB symbols of Japanese digital television, which used it in sports results, and it later became one of the most used sports emoji. The ball’s pattern of black pentagons and white hexagons comes from the Telstar ball of the 1970 World Cup.
