Strictly speaking it's ACU as per the picture above. Of course you might just have a green brown and black sofa.  :)
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio nćo tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campećo mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
