    I counted 13 too so I agree it looks as though the answer should be 11.

    I see footballs at:

    0:06
    0:08 (black ball)
    0:08 (white with black hexagons)
    0:09
    0:10 possible - at the back in front of mirror
    0:12 (same one twice - count as 1 or 2?)
    0:22 (in box)
    0:24
    0:24
    0:27 (free kick)
    0:27 (deflated)
    0:27 (deflated on fence)
    0:27 (GK orange socks)
    0:27 (GK white socks)
    0:28
    0:29
    0:33

    making it 16-18 depending on what you think about 0:10 and 0:12
    It's definitely more than 11.

    hamster has got the 19th - see below.

    Tricky. I went through it fairly carefully and counted 13, but thought that three were the same ball - different shot but in the same scene. So I'm thinking 11 too.

    If you take One-Eye's list:

    1 - 0:06 Between 2 footballers
    2 - 0:08 Black ball next to wall
    3 - 0:08 White with black hexagons in a bin
    4 - 0:09 Under wheel of car
    5 - 0:10 Boy in bedroom - on the unit at the back
    6-7 0:12 In front of goal --- flying into goal
    8 - 0:22 In see-thru box
    9 - 0:24 Bounces on white line
    10 - 0:24 Flies into top corner of goal
    11 - 0:27 Free kick - passing players in wall
    12 - 0:27 Deflated - Yellow next to drain pipe
    13 - 0:27 Deflated on fence - Black and white
    14 - 0:27 GK wearing orange socks
    15 - 0:27 GK white socks - gold boots
    16 - 0:28 Players with orange socks - blue boots
    17 - 0:29 Heading the ball
    18 - 0:33 Running with blue ball

    You can get up to 18.

    Then around 0:50, just after the old guy in a red jacket there is the face of a boy.

    For a couple of frames before he looks up he is holding a ball with a green stripe which makes 19.
    Well, you know, my ancestry isn't all hamster.
    I'm one-sixteenth wolf with, you know, a little wolverine in there somewhere.

    The question is how many times do you see a football, not how many different footballs do you see.
    Thanks to all OPs and everyone who helps/posts etc!!:T
