Description
A futbol concept map I put together around 2 years ago.
MisterLambda remade it in Hammer, and it's been sitting on his PC ever since.
I think we've lost the ability to edit it, so there better not be any huge flaws.

Difficulty: 3-5 / 10

Throwing a futbol mid-air is not intended.
The solution should be easy enough to execute that you could do it with one hand.

Funny map, I didn't know things worked like that. Thumbs up :]

Tried to cheese it, but when that didn't pan out, I did it the right way XD

Hm... futbols are some annoying elements. Fragile and hard to place exactly. Not my cup of tea.
I appreciate that the solution is based on logic, but I'm afraid juggling the futbals was no fun :-( I needed endless tries to discover how to place them best into the autoportals since you can't simply drop them like regular items. What I saw in other people's videos was new to me.
looking down into the portal, releasing the futbol and make it swing in a perfect vertikal trajectory

An awesome-looking chamber with some cool futbol concepts, I quite liked it!

A nice little interlude with an unusual and previously unknown move (for me).

This puzzle was really interesting, and quite unique compared to majority of the puzzles.

(This spoiler contains a possible solution.)
It requires the player to experiment with ball catchers to see how they work, and for them to think of things in cause & effect to understand how the gate could be opened. In my case, I put the orange ball to blue ball's catcher, then I went to stand on the second room's launching pad, then threw the blue ball to make the blue dispenser forcefully destroy the orange ball for a moment. How a momentary deactivation helped me get through the puzzle reminds me of Fumbly Bumbly's puzzle "Voodoo".

Thanks for the fun!

@Spaceminnow Other people have added videoes in the comments where they've found the solution. It is 100% logical and requires no special movement skills.

Too much trial and error. I like more logical puzzles, not "hope you make the shot" puzzles. Too many fails. I got tired of the puzzle.

Very nice map indeed!
