After reading the other sentences from the question, it seems that the design and shape of the surface of the ball is undergoing change over the years. So the probable translation of the sentence in question may be somewhat like this:

A 6-panel BEAU JEU (Adidas) with shape of its surface slightly different from that of a 6-panel Brazuca having similar panel-shape was introduced as the official ball in 2016 EURO Cup.

BEAU JEU also uses 6 panels with a slighty different shape

Modify as required

Thank you. It's a good start. Yes, I'll need to modify it somewhat. Thanks, all the same.

“Beau Jeu still incorporates Brazuca’s innovative and widely praised panel shape, but improvements made to the surface structure and blocking, offer improved grip and enhanced in-flight visibility respectively.

原文の日本語はちょっと貧しいですね。
私なりに言い換えると:
ブラズ−カと同様に、6枚構成のパネルを使用するが、その(パネルの)形状を少し変えたボージュが・・・・

Thank you. But the translation of that phrase is still a bit tricky
