Why Is Football Called Soccer In The USA?

This should never be a debate. It's Football, it was invented in England and the World Company associated "FIFA" is Football. Soccer is not a thing other than countries trying to change it. It's Football.

2025-07-10 08:18:11 +0000 UTCThere is doubt about football being so called because you "kick the ball with your foot". The alternative being that you play the game with a ball while on your feet. As opposed to the other popular sport amongst the elite at the time, polo, where you play on horseback. Horseball vs football.

I do get a chuckle when I see people lose their shit over the name Soccer, when as you say it was an English invention and was used for quite a while in England too. Full disclosure: I was also one of those nobheads raging about Soccer when I was a teen
