Football is the official name for soccer. Soccer comes from association football. Only in the USA and Canada do they say soccer.

The global name for football is of course football. The global name for American football is gridiron.

Football is a sport played using the feet and a ball, only football does this.

Both sports have many injuries but the more serious ones happen in gridiron.

if mean Canada and usa soccer is better football is dangerous but what about soccer all the leg injuries

Obviously serious injury can occur in both sports.However, hockey is a high speed body contact sport with frozen rubber pucks shot at 100 MPH or more. Also skate blades are razor sharp and can cause serious injury as just happened to Richard Zednik of the Florida Panthers. So I'm quite confident in saying hockey is the more dangerous sport.

This is actually a harder question to answer than it seems. The only answers than can be given are opinion-based, so therefore take any answer given with a grain of salt.

That being said, this is a really close call. Both sports are very physically demanding and the probability of injuries is very high. Football offers better safety equipment, but Hockey is near-constant movement and action. In the end, I'll give a oh-so-slight edge to football, as there are more impacts in a shorter amount of time than hockey. Honestly though, this could go either way.

I would say soccer is way more dangerous cause In soccer you can break bones and get bruises and get kicked in the face and get a concussion from it and somtimes the cleat cuts u open. And Basketball it's not that hard ya maybe u will get kicked o go cry play soccer I know cause I played both soccer is way more dangerous. Basketball u might get elbowed. Same in soccer but there is a lot more violents that go on in soccer.

What is more dangerous soccer or tennis?

In both sports you can get seriously injured, most people think soccer is nothing but one of my friends got a concussion during a game playing keeper. I myself have broken my leg and my arm playing soccer. But football is much more dangerous, people have died playing football. In soccer people can die on the field but it's always because of a heart attack or something like that. So i would say football is more dangerous.
