This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for soccer that I've seen before include "American football?" , "Football for Americans?" , "Association football" , "popular game" , "Roy Keane's game" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the King Feature Syndicate, The Independent, The Mirror, the Irish Times (Simplex), the Sydney Morning Herald, The Times and the Newsday.com.
