I never heard of the football repair method, but it sounds interesting.
I would take the cover off and try to warm it up either with a heat gun, or leave it lay in the sun for a while. Be careful, too much heat will burn the paint.
Push the dent out and re-install the cover. after some time in the sun, most of the wrinkles should come out. It won't be perfect, but it's cheap.
I've done this for customers on a budget. At the shop we use a heat light, faster than waiting for the sun.
