Some people think that SOA = Web Services therefore Web Services are SOA

They are wrong.

Architecture != high-level design

The boundary is the difference between concept and vision and the
requirement of implementation.  Design without implementation makes
sense in liberal arts but nothing engineering.  Design is an
engineering discipline, which is distinct from the architecture.  This
holds for buildings as it does for IT, concept and vision, then take
it to live.

Its separate levels of abstraction, which is indeed different in the
same way as the rules of football are different from the tactics which
are different from the play.
