Perhaps you are just saying this to get a reaction, but you are actually wrong. All soccer players do is kick a ball around. There is dexterity involved, but no IQ. Football players have to take an actual (well, kinda) IQ test before getting recruited. A fun fact is that some of these football players are quite smart. One football player scored a $143$ (or $99.8^{th}$ percentile) on his IQ test, and after his football career, he went to get a math PhD at MIT. Many have scored in the high $140$s and a few have scored in the low $150$s. Soccer players have nothing on football players. So I have awarded you a downvote for spreading misinfo.
