The Face of Modern Combat, Good triumphs over Evil.

Ignore the first part of the video, it's rubbish. The second half gets much better.



Vou festejar! Vai sofrer vascainos, animais, filhos da puta! Somos campeões de novo!

Mengoooooooooooooooo!!!!

Congratulations?

[carlos marighela]

Thank you Juergen ! It was only 1X1 but enough to take the state title. Some compensation for crashing out of the Libertadores. Beautiful ending, the vascainos were already starting to celebrate when that goal was slotted in.

It's okay, the white shirt/black short men will settle things in the middle of the year.

2-0 in the final according to 'the Simpsons'

"It's okay, the white shirt/black short men will settle things in the middle of the year...."

Huh?

Well we know one thing, Vasco won't be settling anything with us this year, they've returned to Série B, where they belong. That was my early Christmas present. 

Hope their fans enjoy the crap hole that is São Januário, cos they are going to be playing all their home games there.

Just to add salt to their wounds, that was a legit goal that the linesman disallowed. F%#ing priceless

I was referring these guys:


But I keep forgetting they've switched to white shorts this year.

Their away jersey is this:


...

You can understand my confusion

[von Lucky]

To keep this relevent - is anyone planning to paint a football team (world cup or not)?

I'm eyeing Eureka's old style 1950s era miniatures.

[carlos marighela]

Black shirts, black shorts, yes I can understand the confusion.

BTW nice homage as it is, we have proprietary rights on the red and black strip. Zico would not approve. Still it should give German fans a handy disguise whilst in Rio or Manaus for that matter, where every bugger is a flamenguista.

[carlos marighela]

To answer your question and to provide the figleaf, yes. I've been contemplating the Eureka minis in the shortie shorts, perfect for the classic early 1980s Fla, with Zico, Adílio, Andrade, Tita etc.
