association football
Eleven versus eleven sport
Association football is the formal name for what most of the world calls football and Americans call soccer—the sport played with a round ball that players advance primarily by kicking, where two teams of eleven try to score by putting the ball into the opposing goal.
The term distinguishes it from other football codes like rugby football, American football, and Australian rules football.
Association football remains the world's most popular sport.
