Comment on Trump wants the NFL to change its name so that soccer is the only sport called football: ‘We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff’
Your source says the same thing I said… The word soccer comes from abbreviating “association”. As in association football.
it was foot ball because it was a ball game played on your feet. Rugby was foot ball you played with your hands and associates foot ball was kicked. People called it soccer before it was formally called football (without the space)
