Default Error

I spotted an error (?) in one of the test and I would like to share it with the rest. According to the American spelling test, word 'league' is an American spelling. According to British spelling test, it is British. I don't think it's both? Is it? So I think anyway I'm often wrong.

No error, it is spelled the same way in both countries: Little League [US] / Football League [UK]

Thank you, I got confused seeing this word on both tests. I thought it was a tricky question
