I don't see the similarity. For instance, holding the ball with your hands is not allowed in football.

Soccer is an abbreviation of Association Football which was invented to differentiate from Gridiron Football which is the American sport. Interestingly Rugby is also technically a form of football although it's full title hasn't been used for a while.

Doesn't make sense.
Football isn't actually a game historically. It's just that some parts of the world call soccer 'football'. Football is a collective term for ball games.
For example, England's governing body for rugby is the RFU, [B]Rugby Football[/B] Union, because that's the full title of the sport.
America hasn't exactly got it wrong when they call football 'soccer', it's just that they haven't really got any reason to change it.
How most British people describe these British people:
"Cynical Wankers"
"Twats"
"Have faces that even mothers couldn't love"
Guys, I think we all got over the football vs football internet argument when we were 13.
lol @ the dude who gets the civil war and tgiv mixed up.
You're all wrong.
