Your French friend invites you over to his house to watch yn match de football on TV but instead of watching football you watch a soccer game select the sentence that best described the confusion

I am not sure of the options

But the confusion is that most European countries and language call do not use the term "soccer"

They use the term "football"

They might be confused because American Football is only played in America, hence the name

In European countries and almost everywhere else in the world, "soccer" is called "football". Even in South America, China, .. I guess everywhere except in the USA and Canada !

American and Canadian call this "football" -> "soccer".

The American "football" is called in France = football américain, in UK = American football, in South America = fútbol americano ......
