Yes, this football would be what we in the US call soccer. American style football would have been almost virtually unknown outside the US in the years before the war.

Prior to WW2, cricket used to be very popular in Germany and given that Malaysia was a British colonial possession there would have been no lack of facilities for that game either. It's still very popular among Malaysians.
