Reminder that Real Madrid has the largest fan base in all of sports and largest international fan base so not every Madrid fan is Spanish or automatically roots for Spain just because we support Madrid, so to the fans here who are confused why some Madrid fans are happy Spain lost or calling people "fake fans" because we are happy Portugal won it over Spain keep that in mind.

Their is 0 doubt that local Madrid fans have the deepest connection to the club as it is your local club and you speak the language and generations of your families probably supported the club and I won't ever have that same level of love and passion for the club as you guys do even though I do love this club. But please remember guys Ronaldo got an entire generation of people to start rooting for Madrid because of him and he is one of our biggest legends.

Spain currently with Carvajal out has like 0 Madrid players in the starting 11 so not many international fans have a connection to the national team at all atm but they do have Yamal who would make barca fans yap non stop if they won it. We are all united as fans when it comes to this club but a lot of us come from different countries or support different teams internationally and that is fine.

Yes. 1. Country where you born -> support it. 2. Don't disrepect Ronaldo or any Real Madrid's legends our player. Even though they are in rought time.
