Chois de Verb Alternatif

Est-ce que "Il soutient l'équipe de Paris..." est acceptable aussi? Quelle est la différence d'usage entre "soutenir" et "supporter" si il y en a un ?

Hi Jeffrey, 

Although 'supporter' is usually used nowadays for sports and 'soutenir' for more general use, we have added it to the possibilities as it is not wrong.

Take a look at this page which explains its origin -

Bonne Continuation !
