From the link you posted:

foot·ball
?noun
1. a game in which two opposing teams of 11 players each defend goals at opposite ends of a field having goal posts at each end, with points being scored chiefly by carrying the ball across the opponent's goal line and by place-kicking or drop-kicking the ball over the crossbar between the opponent's goal posts. Compare conversion (def. 13), field goal (def. 1), safety (def. 6), touchdown.
2. the ball used in this game, an inflated oval with a bladder contained in a casing usually made of leather.


soc·cer
?noun
a form of football played between two teams of 11 players, in which the ball may be advanced by kicking or by bouncing it off any part of the body but the arms and hands, except in the case of the goalkeepers, who may use their hands to catch, carry, throw, or stop the ball.
