I like Argentinian team very much, they are always very good, and as you say , they not as sure favourites as Brasil but at the same time they have that passionate style of South American football (though I adore Brasilian style the most and they have some really great charismatic players in Brazil!).
And I am trying to be patriotic and support English guys. Here in England football fans are very much against Argentinian team ever since Maradona scored "The hand of god" goal in the quarter final in 1986 with England. I have double feelings on the matter - Maradona cheated with the goal, but he was so great at the time! I can't really hold a grudge..
I like Italian team, I like their "national character". It is very interesting to watch..
