no, it is a rivalry in that we tend to enjoy seeing our bigger and more skilled neighbour lose.I have no beef at all with the English, I have lived and worked in England tor ten years. Having a beef with the people as a whole would be irrational and silly. Sport is just a game remember, and the schadenfreude when, say, Germany beat England at football is immense. I can separate
sporting loyalties from real life.
Just to be clear here: supporting the other team in sporting events is not the same as anti-English xenophobia.
