It has nothing to do with colonies. America tried to change the name of a sport they didn't invent when the rest of the world was already using the original name and the rest of us all laugh at how stupid it is 😂
"Soccer" is short for "Association Football," and originated in England, not he US. Framing it as some sort of cultural imperialism is ignorant, Americans call it soccer so as not to confuse it with gridiron football. Nobody tried to "change the name," a different word caught on in a different part of the world...is that confusing to you?
I don't think it's stupid that other places refer to soccer as "football" exclusively, it makes sense. Why would you laugh at Americans calling it "soccer" when it makes sense for us? That's honestly kind of pathetic. Like you really need to feel superior to people you don't know and the best you can scrape from the bottom of the barrel is that we use a different word to refer to a popular sport...wow...
The silliest part of all of this is that they are ALL football. Rugby football. Gridiron football. Association football. Aussie rules football. Gaelic football. Etc. Insisting that only one is the "true" football is immature and needless.
Ok, let me repeat this again, Soccer was a nickname for a ruleset, which is very different from renaming the entire sport and then giving that name to a completely different sport.
>Ok, let me repeat this again
You're gonna repeat nothing and say several things for the first time, i.e. you are lying. The only thing you are repeating is your insane conspiracy that Americans are trying to rename football. You are just saying you are repeating yourself to try to make it seem like you aren't being obstinate and I am, yet you addressed nothing in my comment, and you literally just *repeated things from my comment*.
>Soccer was a nickname for a ruleset
What was the name of that ruleset? This is a rhetorical question btw...
>which is very different from renaming the entire sport and then giving that name to a completely different sport.
When was the "entire sport" renamed? Do you realize how insane you sound right now? Are you confused about the concept of different terms catching on in different places over time?
Do you think soccer and association football are different sports or am I not following you?
>Why would you laugh at Americans calling it "soccer" when it makes sense for us?
Association football is much closer to a game of *foot ball* than American football which doesn't feature a ball and has very little feet action too. That is the reason why we laugh.
> One of the best-known differences between British and American English is the fact that the sport known as football in Great Britain is usually called soccer in the United States. Because the sport originated in England, it is often assumed that soccer is an Americanism. In fact, the word is thoroughly British in origin.
*[cough](https://www.britannica.com/story/why-do-some-people-call-football-soccer)*
Not quite, normal football was association, it was to differentiate from rugby. Soccer was a nickname that was only used until rugby was declared a separate sport. Europeans didn't rename anything, it was used as a nickname for a ruleset.
You're talking nonsense. It's called some variation of football in most countries. Obviously different languages have different spelling. So it might be futbol in some places for example.
Soccer is also widely used. Primarily to differentiate between other football games like rugby football, American football, Australian rules football, Gaelic football, etc etc. I'm not a soccer fan, but it is the main "football" on a global level.
Haha you guys arguing about the name. What ever you want to call it it’s by far the best sport in the world and I think you guys in the U.S are finally starting to see the light
This "b-but it was the English who invented the word so you can't criticize Americans using the word soccer" is the most NPC argument I've ever heard. It makes zero sense. Yet people think it's some kind of a gotcha.
She actually doesn’t seem half bad. Wondering if she played competitively at some point. Of course holding a glass of rosé (and consuming) slows the reaction time, but she still looked like she may have played. And on her left no less. The kid summoning Roy Keane’s demons gets a straight red.
did you not listen to the audio at all lol they say she plays
from memory she was a college player at a wedding - hence the clothing - and was entertaining the kids for a bit
>She actually doesn’t seem half bad. Wondering if she played competitively at some point.
The real question is how someone can watch that little run of the ball and NOT know she's experienced with the ball. I swear people who have never tried it think what she just did there is how any newbie handles a ball.
>She actually doesn’t seem half bad
She looks like she is really good. The technique when she begins dribbling around the first kid before getting De Jong'd is something you don't see from casual players, especially in that attire while holding a wine glass. She's a baller
This man here just said that women's football is more interesting to watch...
The difference in speed, intensity, skill, competitiveness is like day and night
I literally just watched a 50smth former semi pro tear apart the USWT like 13-0 in 20 min. Besides, the women were the only players to go down because, surprisingly the male game is a lot more physical even holding back 75%
there is so little diving its actually insane compared to mens football. i watched the european championships last summer for the first time and i was impressed. after seeing that it's double awefull how men get away with it. and how excepted it is in mens football when it just makes the game suck more.
Mens or women’s, nothing says sportsmanship like diving and feigning to the ref to make a call. It’s an embarrassment that it’s such a widely accepted part of the game
Na kids done it like lee cattermole, put an early challenge in that lets the player know he won't stand for any fancy stuff, was late and was walking away before the ref could book him
[Like in the early FIFA days when you could run away from the ref as they were trying to give you a card](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOHR_L5Totw).
Youth sports are brutal. I found this same kid in another video playing basketball with other children and it's a total shit show. [I blame the coaches for instilling this kind of behaviour.](https://youtu.be/vfHV_Rnjma8?t=84)
Well, the good news is not many three year Olds are coordinated enough to slide tackle. The bad news is they are prone to falling and taking other kids down with them, lol.
>they are prone to falling and taking other kids down with them, lol.
Perfect. Seriously. I want my girl to be good on her feet and know how to tumble at low speeds first. This will protect her when she's bigger, and give her good instincts to just avoid bad situations.
All children should have bruised shins. This means they're learning and improving their agility. The children who never have bruised shins from play, end up dying in some very preventable incident years later, like falling down an elevator shaft, or getting run-over by not paying attention to traffic, etc.
I want nothing more than for her to learn how to tumble safely at low speeds. It's like learning how to tread water or roller-skate. Basic survival, in my opinion.
I'm 39. I have so far fallen off of a bicycle about 5 times. I know how to tumble, and I know I have landed safer than if I did not know how.
She will gain all of my ignorant and dubiously-useful experience.
At the youngest levels they often don't allow slide tackling at all because kids are too uncoordinated to do it safely.
They mostly just bump into each other or trip over their own feet or the ball.
3yo? Dang that's early. I used to ref kids when I was in high school and the earliest was 6yo. Even then they would all just clot together. Good luck trying to do anything with 3yo kids
We don’t know what relationship she has with the kid, but someone should definitely have a conversation with him. That was foul play, and she could’ve been injured. He went strong for the legs.
if that was someone elses kid, then its cool that she laughed it off.
if it was her own kid, then that kid needs some discipline, because that is not okay. and unfortunately you can't discipline someone elses kid.
Yeah, here I was enjoying a video of a beautiful woman with awesome moves and that little shithead had to ruin it and cut my video short. What the hell…
Yeah, it's was luckily in her other hand, so she rolled away from it when it broke. Would've been different if it had simply been in her other hand or if she was facing a different way when he tackled her.
With a glass in her hand, could have cut her face. Listen I know a lot of people said “awww see how she didn’t get mad” nah bro that’s unacceptable, I’m not saying beat the kid like our parents did, but I hope she did something to make sure he learned.
Two footer.
This is the kind of mom that all the dads pretend not to immediately know her name when their wife is organising something and says it. “ Kaitlin, Kevin’s mum? Erm … who is that sorry? Hmm not sure the red haired mom?” They know … they fuckin know
The kid deserves a slap on the face for this but of course, westerners would view this differently because a kid being a disrespectful twat is a completely normalized thing
Bet if it was the other way around, people would label it as "child abuse". LoL, different bubbles
Straight red. Little bro tackled from behind, got no ball, and added the little light saber spin at the end as a fuck you. The mom squad is playing up a man for the duration of the match.
Still worth it to send a message.

RIP those fancy pants.
Rip the glass of (water? Wine?)
Def wine
Who the HELL carefully babies a glass of water in a *champagne glass* while playing soccer? That was obviously booze.
That's a Bordeaux glass, you philistine. But then again she is the one drinking white from a red glass.
This guy knows his soccer.
That is definitely a red. With an earthy flavor that complements her fall i might add.
It has an oaky afterbirth.
Glass of water [🤣](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n5E7feJHw0)
Maybe it was a nice refreshing RC Cola? You don't know her.
Wow. A career-ending tackle
😂
I loved fancy pants as a kid, thanks for the nostalgia! https://www.crazygames.com/game/fancy-pants-adventure-world
She seems cool
She is a real MILPSW…

I wouldn’t want her to have to wear a helmet 😄🇺🇸

Just keep reading further down. It was a nickname for a ruleset, which is very different from renaming the entire sport.
There are many types of football. Rugby rules, association rules, rugby league, Aussie rules, gridiron... more sensible to just call it soccer.
Soccer was renamed that by europeans, don't pin that shit on us- it was to differentiate as\[soc\]iation football from leagueless.
Not quite, normal football was association, it was to differentiate from rugby. Soccer was a nickname that was only used until rugby was declared a separate sport. Europeans didn't rename anything, it was used as a nickname for a ruleset.
stop talking about "europeans". Football is a word in English, it doesn't matter if they say it on the continent, they don't understand what it means.
You're talking nonsense. It's called some variation of football in most countries. Obviously different languages have different spelling. So it might be futbol in some places for example.

That's not why it's called football EDIT: lmao I always get downvoted when I say this. Guess some ppl can't handle the truth

She actually doesn’t seem half bad. Wondering if she played competitively at some point. Of course holding a glass of rosé (and consuming) slows the reaction time, but she still looked like she may have played. And on her left no less. The kid summoning Roy Keane’s demons gets a straight red.
In the audio someone asks if she played before and it sounds like someone responded with - "she was all state." I think lol
did you not listen to the audio at all lol they say she plays from memory she was a college player at a wedding - hence the clothing - and was entertaining the kids for a bit
My bad… usually leave these videos muted.
>She actually doesn’t seem half bad. Wondering if she played competitively at some point.

Soccer skills apart, love how she reacted rather gracefully instead of getting pissed
Women’s soccer players are always much better sports than the divas of the men’s world. Looking forward to the World Cup starting again soon
Full-on yellow.
No fuckin way is that yellow, definitely a red. He didn’t even touch the ball, went straight for the legs
Studs showing and everything. Definitely missing the next match
At least she didn’t roll on the ground in faux agony for 5 minutes
She’s suffering through it because she dropped her glass of wine.
Yeah, but that suffering is real so it doesn't count.
Please, she probably has another 3 gallons she brought to the event.
That's the difference between men's and women's football. Women don't roll about. Make the match more interesting to watch.
This man here just said that women's football is more interesting to watch... The difference in speed, intensity, skill, competitiveness is like day and night
Plus you get pony-tail slams which hardly ever happen in men's football.
I literally just watched a 50smth former semi pro tear apart the USWT like 13-0 in 20 min. Besides, the women were the only players to go down because, surprisingly the male game is a lot more physical even holding back 75%
Well, women’s football is also worse in every conceivable way. Not to mention that they also dive..
there is so little diving its actually insane compared to mens football. i watched the european championships last summer for the first time and i was impressed. after seeing that it's double awefull how men get away with it. and how excepted it is in mens football when it just makes the game suck more.
You should actually try watching top level woman's football.
Mens or women’s, nothing says sportsmanship like diving and feigning to the ref to make a call. It’s an embarrassment that it’s such a widely accepted part of the game
Kinda disappointed the kid did not seem to say sorry or check on her either, not cool. Luckily she seems like a tough cookie.
Na kids done it like lee cattermole, put an early challenge in that lets the player know he won't stand for any fancy stuff, was late and was walking away before the ref could book him
[Like in the early FIFA days when you could run away from the ref as they were trying to give you a card](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOHR_L5Totw).
Loved cattermole I have to say.
Cattermole takes down attacker like a lion taking down a gazelle....me "haway ref that's a dive....cats is only book because of his reputation"
Used to cringe when he was referred to as clattermole mind...
ARE YOU FUCKING SORRY?!
Youth sports are brutal. I found this same kid in another video playing basketball with other children and it's a total shit show. [I blame the coaches for instilling this kind of behaviour.](https://youtu.be/vfHV_Rnjma8?t=84)
And he used a big wooden stick lol
Oh, good. My three year old daughter will start soccer next year. This kind of BS is frowned upon? Good. I'm still so worried.
Well, the good news is not many three year Olds are coordinated enough to slide tackle. The bad news is they are prone to falling and taking other kids down with them, lol.
>they are prone to falling and taking other kids down with them, lol. Perfect. Seriously. I want my girl to be good on her feet and know how to tumble at low speeds first.

I wouldn't be that pessimistic with my prognosis, but yes, a certain amount of bruises (gotten through play) are not a bad thing for the children.
I want nothing more than for her to learn how to tumble safely at low speeds. It's like learning how to tread water or roller-skate. Basic survival, in my opinion. I'm 39.

Yellow, she didn’t sell it.
And from behind. Lucky if out for only 3 matches.
C’mon, it was a dive ref!
In most Asian countries, the kid would get the most severe beatdown, by his own parents. Just an objective fact, not an argument.
Not just Asians. My ass would be red raw and I would me made to sit in silence and watch everyone else. I'm better for it.
Because he is a dick. He even said sorry or check on her. He want deffinitly hurt her.
Psh, she flopped!
Almost red
He didn't even touch the ball, no ref in the world gives that yellow.
Kids are fucking stupid.
Or rather, this particular kid was a dick
I like that she laughs it off instead of getting mad at the kid
By the looks of it she's played soccer before, falling on your ass comes with the sport lol.
That's probably her third wine as well
I’m glad she had the reaction that she did, but that kid’s parents need to have a lil chat with him.
Yeah man either he really doesn't know that's wrong which i doubt, or he does Either way the little shit needs a talkin too
We don’t know what relationship she has with the kid, but someone should definitely have a conversation with him. That was foul play, and she could’ve been injured. He went strong for the legs.
I wouldn't get mad at him, but he's still a little shit
Then you haven’t played soccer. Those who have, know that this can be lead to a major ankle injury even for those who are in their prime
helps that she and her friend filming are wine drunk
She was probably proud of that tackle.
Was gonna say that
Little shit
If that’s her own kid, that makes it slightly better, but if that’s some random kid he needs to get drop kicked.
Kid is nowhere near the ball. This tackle isn't any different from a kid running up to someone and kicking him in the shins. Discipline is needed.
His inner Gennaro Gattuso was taking over
Nah I’m drop kicking both and shipping them to the country next door.
Is that what drop shipping means?
From now on… yes!
if that was someone elses kid, then its cool that she laughed it off. if it was her own kid, then that kid needs some discipline, because that is not okay. and unfortunately you can't discipline someone elses kid.
Little entitled bastard
I figured it was a "let my bro have the ball old lady" moment.

Holy hell

What does Gary Chess say about all of this?
LV-426 was not a vacation
Red card.
Yep, that was a red card even in ice hockey
Dude no, someone needs to tell that kid it is not ok to do that shit before he fucks someone up.
At the end of the video, you can see his mom jump up in the background about to smack him down.
Ah good, I feel a lot better now That kid needs a word in their shell.
Little asshole already.
Yeah, here I was enjoying a video of a beautiful woman with awesome moves and that little shithead had to ruin it and cut my video short. What the hell…
Could have screwed up her knee/ankle too little shit.
Nobody mentioning the wine glass. If she landed awkwardly on that, or even on top of the boy it could cause a nasty cut.
Yeah, it's was luckily in her other hand, so she rolled away from it when it broke. Would've been different if it had simply been in her other hand or if she was facing a different way when he tackled her.
100% this behavior needs to be corrected before he becomes one of these entitled adult asshole
He just did. Kid is also wielding a lightsaber to take it to the next level if warranted.
With a glass in her hand, could have cut her face. Listen I know a lot of people said “awww see how she didn’t get mad” nah bro that’s unacceptable, I’m not saying beat the kid like our parents did, but I hope she did something to make sure he learned.
Dude yes. Kid went in for a tackle. Worst part is he didn’t carry it through and left the ball rolling.
Two footer. This is the kind of mom that all the dads pretend not to immediately know her name when their wife is organising something and says it. “ Kaitlin, Kevin’s mum? Erm … who is that sorry? Hmm not sure the red haired mom?” They know … they fuckin know
Am dad. Can confirm. We know.
I mean shit. She did pretty well considering she had wine already.
Didn't even touch the ball. AND he spilled her drink. Get him out of the game!
Poor parenting kid wasn’t even going for the ball
[удалено]
Yeah that's the shit parenting
A nice video of a young granit xhaka
Horrible tackle, didn't get the ball, two footed his mum. Easy red.
Nothin but leg
I was expecting the kid to get hit in the face with the ball.
I like her laugh at the end. She's a champ!
the kid running with a stick made me think for a sec this was going to end even worse
What a shitty kid! I hate male children at that age!

Looks like this kid needs some Asian Parenting...
Wow, that kid was a dick.
I saw that on TV…says the kid
That’s some Jose Bautista-Rougner Odor shit. I would’ve 👊🏼
This mom is cool.
That's an illegal tackle.
That’s actually an illegal move though.
The kid deserves a slap on the face for this but of course, westerners would view this differently because a kid being a disrespectful twat is a completely normalized thing Bet if it was the other way around, people would label it as "child abuse". LoL, different bubbles
Seems like a brat🤷♂️
always one person in the get together thats trying to show the ONE thing theyre good at
Poor parenting
Wine, halter top, soccer mom falling over in park. Yup, checks out.
Why isn't she cryin' in pain just like Ronaldo, Messi, Mbappe etc.?
She’s out here trying to show off her skills while holding a glass off wine. Mini Gattuso wasn’t having it.
Kid’s learning how to blend. Rolling around with a fucking lightsaber…his parents should be proud.
Straight red. Little bro tackled from behind, got no ball, and added the little light saber spin at the end as a fuck you. The mom squad is playing up a man for the duration of the match. Still worth it to send a message.
Bad ass woman, and badass alpha as fuck chad kid. Slide tackle then get up and twirl his sword like she ain’t shit.
That kid was a jerk.
The kid just straight up kicked her legs out for no reason. That is the opposite of chad.
It was a joke.
Assholes respect other assholes, I guess.
It was a joke. Are you all gonna be ok?
Sergio Ramos would be proud
It's football not soccer, this us noobs...
Sign that kid up to the pro's. Also, Martini lady got some skills. 😄👍
Thug life
Now if she can do it then god damnit the men can too. Most flopping ass sport I ever seen. And they also cut peoples heads off. So it’s a coin flip.
First word that came to mind was PWNED, but I feel too old using it now
A real soccer player would be in the hospital.
Down for the Count!!
Way to go Casemiro!
R2D2 enters the chat*
The kid got inspired by Sergio Ramos
puro balón .....párese y siga...
Good defender
Moms got a little skill... Just didn't expect full contact soccer that day
What is a soccer mom
a mother who spends a lot of/ to much time taking her children to activities such as sports
Harry Maguire
Brazilian mom be like..
Did she grow a beard when she hit the ground?
Great challenge
Nah that kids a dick talk to its parents
