A minor quibble: I don't know if this is an issue for anybody one way
or the other, but for sheer language purposes, it might be better to
call the game "football" and trust the readers here (although
certainly not many outside Americans) to know you don't mean American
football.
"Soccer" is, by definition, played under a set of rules finalized in
England in the 19th century, and while it is football, it's a pretty
specific game.
