Inventing a Soccer Ball for Poor Countries
If you're going to be pedantic, then you might as well at least go all the way. The sport is called "association football". It is correct for Americans to call it soccer because, well, that's the most common name for it here.

It seems that, as only Americans call it soccer, only Americans think it's real name is "association football".
