Football or Soccer: What Do You Call It?

Football or Soccer: What Do You Call It?
Sponsored

This post is presented in partnership with Football West.

Some people call it 'soccer'.

Others say if you're a self-respecting fan, you'll call it 'football' and only 'football'.

And the rest don't care what it's called: they just love playing.

We asked our members what they call it, and then—with a little help from our pals at Football West—we got backflipping Matilda, AFC Women's Player of 2017 and Young Australian of the Year Sam Kerr to offer the decisive verdict.

Check it out!

      I am here to talk about a fixed match Agency me and my friends are using together, take it from me when I say it's legit because personally I have won with it 4 times, yes you heard it right, four times, their games are not the guessing type, read my lips when I say I won 4 times, the reason for this comment is that I want to take them down, that is why I want the right authorities to see this comment, I am also a footballer I play for a certain league which I can't mention the league I play for, or my name, the reason I can't report it my self is because I have used the service personally so i don't want my football carrier to go down the drain, my friends are footballers as well, the agency they go by the ID on telegram @SuperCorrectScores Something needs to be done.
