I guess I'll support the german NT then and root for Kimmich, Müller and Neuer.
Wait.
Absolutely agree with @Strickland here. You all see that way too rigorous.
Since I can think I've been a Serie A/Italy fan. It's the league I like the best and know the best. Of course I root for their NT. No idea what's so hard to grasp about that tbh.
To think you have to root for the NT of the country you are born in is just absolute nationalistic nonsense.

You don't have to do anything.
It's just that for me personally I'm not even necessarily a fan of Belgium. It's just that these players grew up where I grew up and know the things I know. It's natural to feel some sort of connection.
And given that it is sort of this connection that they represent, it does feel odd to truly cheer for another national team.

Exactly!
They’ve both had the same horrible luck to come up against the best international team in the last 30 years or more (Spain) and probably the strongest two versions ever of Real Madrid and Barca.
Finally they’ll come up against an opponent nowhere near that level of quality. It’s just a pity that both are in their mid 30s and perhaps not at their peak. But it’s their best chance (by far) of winning an international trophy.
