Our verdict
The Match 3.4 Black is the current pressing of adidas's budget attacker: an EVA foam core under a fibreglass face producing power 72 with even-handed if firm-ish terms (comfort 66, tolerance 66) and handling that rewards preparation (66). Weight documentation needs checking in hand. Value 80 holds the family's bench arithmetic. Between Match generations the differences are cosmetic more than mechanical; the 3.4 is simply the newest label on the trefoil's keen-at-bench-money formula. Buy whichever Match edition carries the week's best price and swing with intent.
This is genuinely the current version of adidas's budget attacker: real power at bench money, with genuine adidas build quality throughout. The buying logic across all the family's editions stays simple and consistent. Weight isn't fully confirmed, so check it in hand, and control wants developing targets — handling rewards early preparation rather than reactive play.
