It's "in lieu of" -- in means in place of or instead of -- and is taken from French (which is why lieu is spelled the way it is).

Football. Its a British invented game - and yes it means 'foot' and 'ball'. However Germans do refer to it in their own language (Fusball I believe) and this may be to what you are referring to. Incidentally Soccer comes from the word Associated Football when Victorian Englishman used to shorten words and ad 'er' on the end. (for instance Rugby became Rugger)
