football vs soccer

European Football and American Football are difference in many ways. However, many people still think that European Football and American Football are the same because they all called “football”, and so there is no difference between playing football in Europe and playing football in America.

A player is called for offside when players from both teams line up facing each other, if defensive players or offense from two teams let any part of their body cross the “scrimmage” line when the ball is snapped. The referee will call for office by throwing a yellow flag. The second difference between Soccer and Football are the objective.
