In the United States, which sport is known as "soccer"?
Correct answer: Football

David
The question isn't well written, because in the United states soccer is soccer and football is a different sport for Americans.

I think the Americans shorten "American Football " to "football". Hence calling football "soccer" to avoid confusion. Those countries that can actually play football call it "football". lol

Here in New Zealand, soccer is soccer, rugby union is rugby, rugby league is called league and American/Canadian football is often referred to as gridiron.

I started playing soccer in 1970 in Manhattan Beach, CA, and had coaches from England, Brazil, Ecuador, Scotland, Argentina and Italy. I came to know it as Fùtbol, the Spanish name for the sport.

David, yes I agree with you, football is a totally different ball game in America, it's none of your chasing a ball around, and kicking it into a net. oh no it's more of a contact sport is it not, with the players bouncing off of one another!
Don't ask me how they even score in American football either
