Hi Nikolai,
There is no difference.
Soccer=American English term for football

Ooops Sorry Ed
Since you put it like that then there would definitely be a difference.
Although I lived in New York for five years I never got out of the habit of calling it American football that �s why it didn �t come to mind.
And me a Jets fan as wellDead
