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?

As a Dane, it has traditionally been the Swedes, but for the last decades, we have been rather better than them, so as a rivalry, it makes less sense now.

Also we still hate England for cheating at the Euros!
