in regards to sports its actually Europeans and South Americans that call the sport "Soccer", "Football" because thats the main national sport of these countries, As for Australia, America and other countries they also have equally or bigger games such as (AFL) Australian Football League, American Grid Iron Football, and Rugby , there is also league, Union, Serie A , even Rugby 7 only played in the olympics which only consist of 7 players on the field, in saying all that!, Each one of these sports is played very differently, in different countries....Therefore, "Soccer"....is a name that Identifies this particular sports from the others. ..Its a universal knowledge, others that say other wise is just being challenging and like to get a reaction to a sport they are passionate about.
