Pretty sure that’s not what he was getting at.

Soccer is very popular among Latinos, but Hispanic youth don’t play soccer, much. They prefer basketball over soccer.

You're making Latinos out to be way more homogeneous than they are. Baseball is bigger in some countries, soccer in others.

Baseball is usually bigger in countries the US military occupied at some point (Cuba, Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico)

Soccer is huge in most other countries in the region (though exceptions likely exist).

Does calling it something else make it any different? Do you also abuse the Italians for calling it Calcio?

Chill out, just trying to make a joke here. Italians at least don't have a hand-oval game they call football.

Italy not in the Rugby six nations then? Soccer as a word originated in UK, home to the game and the language...
