It's called Football. The thing you play in USA should probably be called "American Rugby". The first is the "king of sports" due to its popularity, the other is only relevant in select countries. I prefer watching and playing the one with the round ball over the one with the elliptical shape - more excitement, legacy and universality. Of course, I am a huge basketball fan myself first of all and devote 90% of my sports-related physical and media activity on that.
