Is it Football in the U.S. and Futbol outside of the U.S.?

Oops, as was pointed out by JoshuaD, it's much more likely that it'll be
called Soccer in the U.S. because Football in the U.S. means pigskins.

I think it's interesting, though, that the name of the GIF file displayed
on this page:

   http://www.lego.com/catalog/amr/overview.asp?selection=system

is:

   und075x038us4football.gif

I guess that doesn't really say much.

Anyway, where on any official LEGO publication has the word "Futbol" actually
appeared?  (Not that it hasn't, I just don't remember ever seeing it yet.)
