Americans pretty much stop playing footy at 12 years of age. If you are a talented athlete you probably end up playing basketball or football. American men will likely never be good since all the talent always goes elsewhere.
Footy/futbol/soccer is a third tier sport in the United States and it always will be. It's by far the single most popular sport in any country that is good at it. Median salary for the NFL and NBA is 10 times more than MLS.
Not even close really.
We have High School teams, Recreation Teams, and College Teams.

It's not our highest-ranked sport, so it doesn't get the same attention as American Football, but it's not like it's not played in most towns.
K, then why are they hosting the world cup tho
Because FIFA is a corrupt organization.
North America is hosting the world cup.
Not just the USA.
Yes, including the USA. They shouldn't.
Neither should have South Korea or Japan or ~~Qatar~~ in the past, but they did.
