It's called soccer in places where it's a B or C tier sport. America, Australia, New Zealand at least have at least one other massively more popular sport called Football.
soccer is a D or F tier sport in america. all the best athletes go to football, basketball, baseball, or hockey
It's hard to consider it a A tier sport when USians simply suck in it. It's an A-tier sport elsewhere, though, and the greatest sport in most of the world.
Calling rugby football is a bit strange though.
