Er... Non-US countries also use "dozen" and have football fields. The only thing here that's an american measurement is "inches", and she shouldn't have much a problem understanding that since the thing being measured is right in front of her.
This one is reaching.
I don't know about you, but I've never seen someone measure things in football fields except in the US
Also, football field != (American) football field
A football field/pitch is an internationally relatable reference point - it's used all the time to give a sense of scale.
