Soccer. That's about it. But it depends on what part of Europe. Hockey is pretty big in Scandinavia; you have a lot of Rugby in the British Isles. I would name soccer as the outright winner for sports in Europe (and pretty well everywhere else in the world).

In all of Central America except for Cuba and Puerto Rico, it's soccer since in those Cuba and Puerto Rico the favorite is baseball. In all of South America, it's soccer. In all of Africa it's soccer. In all of Europe it's soccer except for some icy countries like Finland where they can't play soccer so it's Snowboarding and hockey. In most of the Middle East, it's soccer. In India, which has about 1.2 billion people, it's cricket. Then in the rest of Asia, it's soccer. In China, the #1 sport is soccer, then baseball and basketball since about 330 million people play basketball. Finally in Australia, it's mostly soccer. so worldwide, #1 by far is soccer, #2 is cricket since India is so populated, #3 is baseball, #4 is basketball and the rest depends.
