For example, in Australia, the term 'football' wasn't officially used until 2006. Rugby League and AFL are usually referred to as 'football', and while soccer is now officially called football as well, soccer is still a commonly used term. In fact, our national men's team are called the 'Socceroos'!

In North America, the sport is often called soccer but in Brazil, the game is called football or 'futebol' in Portuguese.
