Soccer is the most popular sport because its cheap to play. You need a ball. That's it.
This is such a bullshite statement. You can say that about every sport but ice hockey.
Baseball? A stick and a ball
Football? An oblong ball.
Basketball? A ball that bounces and a some type of hoop.
Field Hockey? A stick and a ball.
Rugby? An oblong ball.
Wrestling? NOTHING.
Cricket? A stick and a ball.
Etc.
I don't see anyone in the backyard playing football in full pads.

It seems like a guy with a polisci degree would be able to see the rise of soccer came about during the imperial age of Europe. Oddly enough the former British colonies all have a different sport as their favorite.
America has our version of football.
Australia has Aussie Rules Football
New Zealand is all about that Rugby. South Africa too.
India loves cricket.
It's the places that Spain and France got a hold off that took to soccer.
