Football or soccer?

Actually, it's the "soc" is Association which Soccer is derived from.

And the term was first coined by an Englishman - Charles Wreford-Brown - in order to differentiate it from the other form of football, rugby.

There is absolutely nothing wrong in calling football soccer.

Well I prefer using the proper name it began with.
