O Vasco da Gama tem o prazer de apresentar seu novo uniforme 3 para a temporada 2023-2024. A camisa reverencia os lendários Camisas Negras, os Campeões Cariocas de 1923, e o impacto profundo que estes atletas, pretos, pobres e operários, trouxeram não apenas para o Vasco, mas para todo o Brasil e mundo.

The shirt pays homage to the legendary Camisas Negras, the Carioca Champions of 1923, and the profound impact that these athletes, black, poor and working class, brought not only to Vasco, but to the whole of Brazil and the world.

So today is the 120th anniversary of existence of the Brazilian team that I support, Vasco da Gama. Vasco has a long history and it’s the second team with the most supporters in Rio de Janeiro. It has a long tradition and it was the first team ever to allow black people to play in a period of time in which there was (there is still, but) much racism around Brazil. And Philippe Coutinho played for us, sadly not for very long as we was “sold” to an international team when he was really young (he was sold to Internazionale, it was in 2010, I even remember when he barely played). If today Philippe is a great player, that’s because of his Vasco da Gama roots. He made this post on instagram telling how grateful he is for our club. I am literally happy cause Vasco has been for ages having financial crisis and corruption in the administrative part. Anyway. It makes me happy that a great star like Philippe made sure he wouldn’t ever forget his roots. In his instagram post he says:

“Thanks to @vascodagama for one more year of history. I am really happy and grateful for having lived for more than 10 years in this club!”

i AM SO DONE

“It is with the deepest regret that Vasco da Gama receives the information that Dinamite left us this Sunday.

Carlos Roberto de Oliveira, Dinamite, dedicated 29 of his 68 years to the Club, as an athlete and President. We will love you forever.

Rest in peace 🖤”

Expectativas para o Vasco em 2023...

Galerinha, qual suas expectativas com o Vasco no ano que vem? Depois de tudo que passamos, e ainda o investimento da SAF. 

Eu honestamente não sei. Precisamos de um técnico bom, um elenco novo, um goleiro mais confiável, mas em 2023 vamos nos concentrar em não cair de novo. 

Palpites?

Even though Vasco da Gama was a “mixed race” team, they were called “portuguese team”. They played using a black shirt with a red Cross pattée on the center, and it was proposed by one of its founders, José Lopes de Freitas. The club would never change its colours: black, white and red, because they were present in the Portuguese navy. The black and white represents the idea that anyone of any race or social origins, portuguese and brazilians, would play in the club in equality and without discrimination.

O Vasco da Gama, que apesar de mestiço era chamado de time dos portugueses, entrava em campo usando uma camisa preta com a Cruz de Cristo em vermelho no peito, por proposta de um dos fundadores, José Lopes de Freitas, o clube jamais mudaria as suas cores - preto, branco e vermelho -, presentes na cruz das embarcações portuguesas. O preto e o branco representariam a ideia de que podiam competir pelo clube pessoas de todas as raças e origens sociais, portugueses e brasileiros, em igualdade e sem discriminação.
