hckošice 13,243 Posted June 3, 2019 #11 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Well, I guess it will not be a surprise... + because one 27 years old horrid decision made by some stupid politicians cannot and will never divide us. (but yeah apart hockey ofc...because yes, obviously hockey is war ) ++ I lived and worked in this country and I have created many relationships and friendships that I will never forget. and one special mention to Football I was, I am and I´ll be a big fan ! one unbelievable football nation full of absolutely crazy and emotives journey from #1982Gijon to the 2014 amazing World Cup squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoversaBR 281 Posted June 3, 2019 #12 Share Posted June 3, 2019 in women's volleyball and in handball are the only ones I can remember. And when I watch I support in field hockey. In the rest I cheer for any country that has the potential to be a surprise in the competition, especially if it is from South America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heywoodu 13,547 Posted June 3, 2019 #14 Share Posted June 3, 2019 If we're going sports specific: Brazil in most winter sports (with one or two athletes on the opposite and being on the list of cheering against them) and a few Australians in biathlon. Then again, that's all really not because of the nation, but because of the people, so I guess it doesn't really count If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

NearPup 2,156 Posted June 3, 2019 #16 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Depends on the sport, for example in hockey when Canada isn’t playing I will usually root for Slovakia, Finland or Latvia because their fans are so passionate. hckošice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianlu33 3,572 Posted June 3, 2019 #17 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I don't care about the flag... usually I support the athletes, some names are Sagan, Palšytė, Kobayashi, Kasai, Soldatova and a lot of other names. Speaking about countries, i love the small countries and the dutch archery team heywoodu and hckošice 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHSN 3,212 Posted June 3, 2019 #19 Share Posted June 3, 2019 for some reasons I don't know I always support Italy when they don't face Iranian teams. I even have a relatively good knowledge about the Italian sport in general (obviously not as good as Italian users but still) beside that I usually support the underdog, I also mostly support other Asian countries except just one AlFHg and Giovanni Gianni Cattaneo 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted June 3, 2019 #20 Share Posted June 3, 2019 It's a very mixed bag for me. Sometimes I can for example be a die-had fan of Kyrgyzstan, but then in couple of months not so much. It just comes and goes, and it often depends on the specific situation. Though I also generally like to cheer for specific athletes, and sometimes even for every athlete.
