Grade 3 falls in complete tear category. It may take several weeks. In such case one should not bear weight on affected leg. Regular investigation will tell how much recovery need to be done. Rest is important, bandage cast according to the severity is necessity. For better understanding I need to see reports. You can play soccer but before that your ankle need proper rehabilitation. Ankle sprain are recurrent in nature, hence should be dealt with extreme care & proper rehabilitation protocol. Regards.
