General Development Cnet reports: "Fedora is the operating system of choice for AllemaniACs' winning robot in the RoboCup, a soccer tournament played between robots. Fedora has fueled AllemaniACs' victories in 2006 and 2007, and appears to be poised to raise the cup again in 2008." For anyone interested in using Fedora in robotics, a special interest group for robotics has been started within the Fedora Project to support such efforts.

yeah, US and Canada.
I believe soccer is normally viewed as a world sport and not a european sport.(most widely played sport in the world and such)
Since the article was probably written in the US(I'm just guessing), then 'soccer' is the correct term.


ooooh, and it turns out the term 'soccer' came from England.
