Yes! However in the Olympics, it's called 'Football' as that is what it's called in the majority of the world.
EDIT: I'm not 'moaning' about soccer, I'm simply saying that in the Olympics, it was called football. Because it was.
@Will. It seems like you're the one doing the moaning. Check out your own link. It says " Football at the 2012 summer Olympics". They don't call it soccer.
The word "Hoops" and the word "gridiron" were coined in the USA. Does that mean that it's called the National Hoops Association and the National Gridiron League?
Oh heck yeah. And this was a great pair of tournaments. Mexico won the men's gold over Brazil, and the US beat Japan for the women's gold.
And ignore the idiots pissing and moaning about the word "soccer". Most of them aren't smart enough to know that "soccer" is a British contraction of "Association Football".
Yeah
Yes.
Yes. Here are the results.
