READ BEFORE ANSWERING!!!!
I'm American and I love soccer and football, and I grew up with playing soccer. There is a completely different type of fitness needed for football that isn't in soccer. Soccer you need stamina, you need to be able to run for a long time and have massive skills and coordination in your legs.
Depending on the position in Football, you either need a very sharp mind, the ability to hold up 300 lbs of deadweight for extended periods of time, leg power, or a combination. Its slower, but that doesn't make it easier.
Here's a video of Brazilian player Ronaldo dominating and showing how the game SHOULD be played(Even though the song sucks):

I never said anything bad about American football so if your going to post ignorant comment bashing soccer without any facts and knowledge, you might as well not answer at ALL
