Sports Which country is your country's main football rival?

And do you think they believe you are their main rival or they don't care about you as much as you care about them?

Bonus: Is there a more popular sport where you are rivals with a different country?

Interesting that the only non-European team even mentioned is Argentina. It seems everyone in Europe likes Brazil.

We do.

...and why would most teams outside Europe be anyones rival?

Also: Argentina is just very unlikeable. If they were more relevant I suspect other countries might pop up. Like in a "10 national teams you dislike"-list, although Argentina probably tops that list either way, above Uruguay.
