I'd surely include them in my list if I'll hit them, but a quick Google search resulted in nothing. :( BTW, let me put here the item that makes me complete 4/5 of my effort (effort that could have well been all about just Vasco and Pele - e.g. I'm skipping over the story of Vasco, having been offered Pele from Santos, preferring Del Vecchio instead...): 8. ...all the rest is poetry. (TM) "Happiness, your name is Vasco." This phrase was said by Merin, who played for Vasco 1953 to 1955, in a rare moment of inspiration after a great victory. The phrase became part of the collective memory of Vasco, and in the 1960s was placed in a black band with white lettering that the organized cheer, led by Dulce Rosalina, hung on at the Maracana. -- Cheers milivella

But I suppose Anders knows about this. Ciao, Werner

But I suppose Anders knows about this. I just found out via google that this game might have happened in 1961. http://www.ibracrvg.hpg.com.br/1961.htm The site below seems to have most or all of Vasco's games in that year. It's not exactly in chronological order, but ordered by tournament. This game against Bodens appears here in the middle of an European tour (under "Amistosos e outros torneios"). However, in almost every entry you don't get any data apart from the scores and, occasionally, the scorers. Lineups, venue, attendance, referees, most of the times are "desconhecido" (unknown). So, I'm not sure how reliable this is. FWIW, here are the results of that tour: May 21st - Kickers Offenbach 0-1 Vasco May 27th - Saint Pauli 0-2 Vasco May 30th - Alemannia Aachen 2-3 Vasco June 1st (!) - Trondheim 0-11 Vasco (I assume there is some mistake here, as right after this there is another Trondheim vs Vasco game in the same day, with the score 0-10 now) June 6th - Skeid XI 0-2 Vasco June 11th - Fren (Finland) 1-4 Vasco June 14th - IFK/AIK XI 1-4 Vasco June 18th - Dalama (Sweden) 2-4 Vasco June 21st - Boden 1-8 Vasco June 27th - AIK 1-1 Vasco June 29th - Norkoping 0-1 Vasco July 2nd - Sundsvall 1-5 Vasco July 5th - Porto 3-0 Vasco -- Ll�o

But the Brazilian national team had won the Copa America twice before then (1919 and 1922). So it wasn't if you include national teams. |
