Last night as I watched my beloved Dutchies get trounced by their
southern neighbors, the following question came to mind:
Regarding nation teams from countries with more than one official
language (i.e., Belgium): In which language do players from these
teams communicate on the field? Or, for that matter, what
language do players use when they're yelling at the ref (if the ref
comes from another country)?

I would imagine that they use Abusive language, the same as every other
player.

Well, I suppose the Belgians spoke French to each other (as the dutch
speak dutch too, surprising, but we *do* :), and english to the ref,
as we dutch (and I guess also the Belgians) speak english very well.
Marcel, as modest as ever. :)
