Kat:
Football is any of several games played by two teams on a rectangular field with goalposts at each end in which the object is to get the ball over the goal line or between goalposts.
Here in the USA only soccer uses a round inflated ball advanced by kicking. We always referr to the game using the 'round' ball as soccer.
Whereas our game of 'football' here is played with a oval ball (a prolate spheroid that is pointed at the ends). The ball is advanced down the field by running with it, passing it, or kicking it.
