Vasco da Gama Commemorative Shirts
Reebok has launched three commemorative shirts for Vasco da Gama:
The first one is a 110th Anniversary Commemorative Shirt. It’s all black with the number 110 and the word “anos” (years, in portuguese). Vasco da Gama is a Brazilian team founded in August 21th, 1898. The most famous former players of the team are Tostão, Roberto Dinamite, Romario, Bebeto, Juninho and Sonny Anderson.
The second one is the 20th Anniversary of the Campeonato Carioca title, won over the archirival Flamengo. It’s the classic team shirt, white with a black diagonal stripe on the front. It also has some details in black in the sleeves.
The number 13 came from the sideback Cocada, who scored the winning goal of the final match. There is this goal discription inside the shirt.
The last one is the 10th Anniversary of the Libertadores da América title. It’s just like the actual shirt, with the number 98 on the back and the Libertadores da America symbol close to the Reebok logo.
If you took all the sponsors and assorted other nonsense off the third of those shirts it still wouldn’t come close to the simple beauty of the second.
I agree the second one is just simple and beautiful. I quite like the black one as well as it don’t have a sponsor on it
oh my ****.ing god. anyone for some egg chasing!?
Yes, the third one looks like a French second division rugby club, but the second, (the polo shirt!) looks great. If the sash went down the back it would be perfect.
I’m a Vasco supporter and dislike this shirt, not only because its sponsors. But about two years ago, they didn’t have any sponsors. Now, there’s theses two on it. I’d like Reebok make a more fancy shirt. Even without sponsors, it’s an ugly design… (but I agree the second shirt is beautier. it’s a 20 years-ago shirt model, when Adidas was manufacturer and the team got real good players…)
