The game is called Football actually

  Football is a code. The word is derived from the fact it is a sport played on foot with a ball, as opposed to Polo which is on horseback. The term Soccer is derived from the correct name of the sport being Association Football, in late 1900′s Britain they would colloquially change their names of sports with an “Er” sound on the end, Rugby was ‘Rugger’, Association Football was Assoccer, which became ‘Soccer’. Soccer is correct. The word football is not owned by one particular sport or code of football. So get your facts right before you type.

    Association Football is the correct name, so saying Soccer is correct and Football isn’t, is incorrect. Soccer is a shortened name for Association, the original name for it was Association Football, made up in the 1860′s. It was changed to Football in the UK and Soccer in Canada and the US after this. The actual correct name is Association Football, so you should get your facts right before you type.
