Im 15 currently 175cm, 68kg(148lbs) and bulky sort of. I have a lot of muscle underneath my fat. My friend made me realise I was actually stronger than the boys even though I dont look so because Ive a bulky kinda body. Im starting these new exercises in the coming weeks. Soccer, Sport afternoon every Tuesday Thursday, Friday. Including a random time say Wednesday and the match for soccer on Saturday will this be enough cardio for me to lose weight? Should I also do gym so that I dont lose some muscle as well?

increasing muscle speeds up metabolism. Muscles burn more calories than fat does. Sounds like you are doing great. Stay away from fast food, drinks containing sugar or corn syrup, chips and cookies. Drink 100% fruit juice or water. Snack on fruit, pickles, pretzels. I admire you at 15 years old being mature and doing this.

For your height you are at a perfect weight so I really don't think you need to lose weight. Im 165cm tall and when I weighed 68kgs before I had kids, I was wearing size 12 clothes (which in Australia is quite a desirable size). You're 10 cms taller than me so you would look even slimmer than I did! I can't believe you think you're fat. Stop comparing yourself to your anorexic friends and be grateful for being healthy and strong.

another great thing to do to burn the fat and get you ready for soccer is this.
go to a basketball court or something about the same size.
satrting at one end, sprint to the other side as fast as you can
walk back and repeat
try this for 2 or 3 minutes or 5 or 10 or whatever you can do and push yourself hard.
skip a day and repeat, trying to go a few minutes longer each time. watch the fat melt away and build lots of muscle indurance at the same time.

if you're working out and eating well, this might be your natural set weight. just continue working out and have fun! it will come off naturally if it's meant to. eat balanced, make sure to stay hydrated (at least 8 glasses of water on a normal day, 12 if you're working out hard) and don't worry so much about your weight. be happy, continue beaing healthy and if it's meant to come off, it will.
