@pwbbounce
Haha!! yes, you’re right. In Argentina is the same: soccer doesn’t exist, but “fútbol” (almost same pronunciation as football)
My favourite football teams are:
From my country I support Ferro Carril Oeste, that is not playing the First A Championship (the most important championship) anymore. And Boca Juniors.
I also like Liverpool from England, even more than the previous ones!
About the other football, I don’t even understand the game :D

My fav footie team is the Collingwood Magpies :P
In American football I’m for the San Francisco 49ers... though they are no good anymore :( So lately I root for Seattle Seahawks or any other underdog available (last season the New Orléans Saints :D).
And in association football I’d say Real Sociedad is my favourite. I also like PSV Eindhoven, Atalanta di Bergamo, Saint Etienne and Newcastle United.

For me concerning soccer/futebol, they are :
National team: Brazil
Local team in Brazil,Rio de Janeiro: Flamengo (Flamengo has about 40 million fans in Brazil; its the most well liked team in Brazil)
There are two other Brazilian local teams that you guys might have heard of: Internacional and Sao Paulo. These two teams won the last 2 FIFA World Club Cups that’s played in Japan every year in december.
2005: Sao Paulo 1 x 0 Liverpool (England)
2006: Internacional 1 x 0 Barcelona (Spain)
***Sao Paulo and Internacional are not my favorite teams, but i like to wtch them play and of course, if they or any other brazilian team is in a international competition will, of course, cheert and support them.
Take care!

I’m sorry for Arsenal fans :p 12 years already tomorrow!!! It’s been so long...
Since I lived 9 months in Newcastle, I also like Newcastle United.
I know is not the question, but my most hated football teams are Real Madrid, Osasuna (due to geographical proximity... besides, their supporters are not very respectful to my team) and Chelsea. I hate Mourihno!!!
Which ones are yours?
