How to say “soccer” in Spanish?

Question: How to say “soccer” in Spanish?
I’m in advanced Spanish, and I’ve always used the word fútbol for soccer. But yesterday on the first day of class my teacher corrected me and said to say something along the lines of balómpie or balón al pie. She is from Colombia- is there a regional difference why she doesn’t use fútbol?
Thanks!
