Hi Archana,
Both
je soutiens son équipe
and
je supporte son équipe
were accepted as alternatives and are synonymous in this context.

Soutenir and supporter can both mean "to support" and, in this respect, are close synonyms. Yes, supporter can also have a negative meaning but it isn't restricted to this. Supporter can also mean a more general support, like, e.g., the foundation that supports the weight of the building.
