One Polish portal just run a story how Morocco represents the entire Arab world and yeah, I can see why Maghreb region is running behind Morocco even if Algeria was a French colony and Morocco was a Spanish colony etc.

National identity and a separate ethnic identity to cheer for if the national one doesn't work, it does give one double chances to feel like winning, that's smart :p

I dunno, it is quite similar almost everywhere I guess. We also cheers like fools for Czechs (if we not play against obviously) and no one looks at it as something unordinary at all

But you were at least one country not that long ago.

 

We might be in the same corner as Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany and such, but I have no idea why I'd cheer for them other than because I like a certain player or team (but as usual, the flag behind the name isn't relevant for that) :p

 

Anyway, in the end people should of course just cheer for whoever they want, free world and all :d

yeah and we were a region of Hungary for almost a millenium and 82 % of inhabitants of Slovakia will most likely I assure you never cheer for a Hungarian in his entire life :p so that´s not really a point

National identity is indeed extremely complex.

We can see some Portuguese flags on balconies and windows in Rio de Janeiro, but if you ask most people how they feel about Portugal, most would say they'd rather want Portugal to lose. Same thing with Latin Americans when Spain was defeated; I saw lots of posts on social media mocking Spain coming from Latin Americans.

Funny thing is that Portugal apparently has a large number of people who support Brazil, watch Brazilian soaps and TV series, but everything that comes from Portugal is virtually unknown in Brazil. And God forbid you mention to a Brazilian that Portuguese spoken in Portugal is the "correct" way to speak.

    • My guess is Women’s football is where we will see some players refusing to go to the Olympics in protest at having to take a test. Feels like that’s one here they are some biological women who would do that. Maybe a few others    Could be the odd country where legal or political challenges cause issue for events. Particularly ones where local authorities have more power as urban ones where majority of sporting event are held more likely to be left wing and liberal.
