Virat Kohli's love for football isn't hidden from anyone and the star Indian cricketer pledged his support for Die Mannschaft. (Which team is 'excited' Kohli supporting?)
"Excited for #Euro16 I'm all in with Die Mannschaft for the Euros! Which team are you supporting? #FirstNeverFollows," Kohli wrote on his Twitter handle.

Kohli later thanked the Real Madrid star, who wasn't following Virat until now, for the gift and wished him luck for his Euro campaign.
Thanks @ToniKroos

Wish you the best for #Euro16. Will be cheering!
Interestingly, Kohli and Kroos both have sponsorship deals with Adidas and are part of Adidas' latest ad campaign which goes by the hashtag #FirstNeverFollows.
Though this friendly gesture over Twitter might be a part of the ad campaign but the spirit of the both the games is the real winner amid all this.
