Because soccer is meant to be played with your feet unless you are the goalie, or throwing the ball in from the sideline. It is just the rules people came up with when it was invented. That is why it is called football. Of all of the games around the world that use the word football as part of their name, it is the one that most closely fits the description. Others allow the use of the hands, and in some the hand is more commonly used than the foot in playing the game.
