Football is a game played in europe,soccer is the same game in the good old U.S. of A and Canada. Whereas football or more precisely American football is called rugby here. It's not too confusing is it....

He talks about soccer, for was european football, for you in canada or usa is soccer, because soccer for you is like rugby for was, any way, eusebio was been the best player in the world, like CR7 now, and is a portuguese that played in several clubs, most important and most time in S.L.Benfica, but some seasons on clubs like that, like Pelé, the brazilian, he play in some clubs across america, like N.Y. Cosmos, and that time the players play for the sweet, not for money, now is diferent, is more like for money and sponsorships, that maybe for the sweet. Search on google for eusebio and the time - Toronto Metros-Croatia, and read the history of the greatest player of all times.

It is confusing a bit. It's easier to put it this way: football is a game which is actually played with a ball and feet, American football is a game played with a melon-shaped oddity and hands.
