The two teams have their training centers separated by only a wall, being nicknamed by many as the "[[Berlin Wall]]".<ref>{{Cite web |last=Paulo |first=Por Alexandre LozettiSão |date=2014-01-31 |title=‘Muro de Berlim’ divide Palmeiras e São Paulo com espionagem e apostas |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/sp/futebol/campeonato-paulista/noticia/2014/01/muro-de-berlim-divide-palmeiras-e-sao-paulo-com-espionagem-e-apostas.html |access-date=2024-05-22 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

== History ==
The first meeting between [[São Paulo FC|São Paulo]] and [[SE Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] (at the time called Palestra Itália) began in the [[1930 Campeonato Paulista]], with a 2–2 draw. The rivalry blossomed in the 1940s, because between 1942 and 1950, São Paulo and Palmeiras were state protagonists. São Paulo won five [[Campeonato Paulista]] titles ([[1943 Campeonato Paulista|1943]], [[1945 Campeonato Paulista|1945]], [[1946 Campeonato Paulista|1946]], [[1948 Campeonato Paulista|1948]] and [[1949 Campeonato Paulista|1949]]), while Palmeiras won four ([[1942 Campeonato Paulista|1942]], [[1944 Campeonato Paulista|1944]], [[1947 Campeonato Paulista|1947]] and [[1950 Campeonato Paulista|1950]]).<ref name=":0" /> At that time, the rivalry between the two teams was responsible for bringing crowds to the stadiums. The magnitude of the duel caused journalist Thomaz Mazzoni, from the newspaper ''A Gazeta Esportiva'', to highlight the classic as "Choque-Rei" (Clash of Kings).<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Palmeiras x São Paulo: Entenda a origem do termo "Choque-Rei" |url=https://social-content.sbt.com.br/noticia/177165-palmeiras-x-sao-paulo-entenda-a-origem-do-termo-choque-rei |access-date=December 25, 2023 |website=sbt.com.br}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Thomaz Mazzoni |url=https://museudofutebol.org.br/noticias/ |access-date=December 25, 2023 |website=Museu do Futebol |language=pt-BR}}</ref>

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

Its [[Youth system|youth academy]], which has brought up [[List of Brazil international footballers|international footballers]] such as [[Romário]], [[Philippe Coutinho]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini]], [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edmundo (footballer)|Edmundo]], is well known for its socio-educational methodology.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-03-08 |title=De Coutinho a Andrey: Colégio Vasco da Gama completa 20 anos e recebe parabéns de formados no clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/futebol/times/vasco/noticia/2024/03/08/de-coutinho-a-andrey-colegio-vasco-da-gama-completa-20-anos-e-recebe-parabens-de-formados-no-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

At the national level, Vasco da Gama has won four [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], three [[Torneio Rio–São Paulo]] and one [[Copa do Brasil]]. In international club football, the club has won one [[Copa Libertadores]], one [[South American Championship of Champions]], and one [[Copa Mercosur]]. At the state level, the club has also won 24 [[Campeonato Carioca]]. The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil. After a few years, the racism barriers fell, and Vasco became known as "Clube de todas as raças" (Club of all races).<ref>{{Cite news |date=13 November 1998 |title=Vasco da Gama Redrew the Color Line in Brazil |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |access-date=28 March 2022 |newspaper=Washington Post |archive-date=28 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170828033951/https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |url-status=live }}</ref> The club had led the move toward a more inclusive football culture, forward-thinking not employed by leaders from other Rio-based clubs like Fluminense, Flamengo and Botafogo.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

On 21 April 1927, Vasco's Stadium was inaugurated with a match against [[Santos FC|Santos]]. Santos won the match 5–3.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Históry 1924-1943|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=NetVasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030924200653/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html |archive-date=24 September 2003 }}</ref> On 26 April 1931, Vasco had a historic 7–0 victory over rivals Flamengo; this is the largest victory margin between the two clubs in the amateur era.

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

Vasco immediately secured their return to Serie A, sealing promotion to the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Série A]] on 7 November 2009 with a 2–1 victory over [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] in front of a Serie B-record 81,000 fans at [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]], and finishing as Serie B champions as well.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2009 |title=Vasco põe 81 mil no Maracanã, bate Juventude e confirma volta |url=https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=Terra |language=pt-BR |archive-date=29 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220329044117/https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

A win on the last matchday would've given them the title, as Corinthians drew their match, but Flamengo held Vasco to a draw. The club also ended the year as semifinalists in the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana|Copa Sudamericana]], a competition that saw the club defeat [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], [[Club Aurora|Aurora]] and [[Club Universitario de Deportes|Universitario]] in historic fashion before being eliminated by eventual champion [[Club Universidad de Chile|Universidad de Chile]] on away goals. The season was dubbed as ''"Vasco's Redemption Year"'', with many lauding Vasco as one of [[Football in Brazil|Brazilian football]]'s elite teams once again.

====2012: Return to Copa Libertadores====

Vasco's played their first final of 2012 in the [[2012 Campeonato Carioca#Taça Guanabara|Taca Guanabara]], losing 1–3 to Fluminense after eliminating Flamengo in the semifinals.

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the cross pattée, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

==Stadium==
{{Main|São Januário|Maracanã Stadium}}
[[File:São Januário 2020.jpg|thumb|São Januário in 2020]]
Vasco da Gama's stadium is [[São Januário]], inaugurated in 1927, with a maximum capacity of 35,000 people. For national matches, however, the stadium could only fit at most 21,880 people for security reasons.<ref name="capacity"/> Occasionally, Vasco uses the 78,000-seater [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã]] for derbies or international matches.

==Supporters==

According to census and polls, Vasco da Gama is the second most [[Fan (person)|supported]] club in Rio de Janeiro state, and varies between the third and fifth most supported club in Brazil, with an estimate of more than 15 million supporters in the country.<ref>{{Cite web|date=25 September 2021|title=As Maiores Torcidas do Brasil|trans-title=The largest fanbases in Brazil|url=https://www.rsssfbrasil.com/miscellaneous/torcidas.htm#s30|url-status=live|access-date=2021-11-28|website=Rsssf Brasil|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090117210535/http://rsssfbrasil.com:80/miscellaneous/torcidas.htm |archive-date=17 January 2009 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=3 September 2021|title=IBGE divulga lista atualizada dos clubes do Brasil com mais torcedores|url=https://somosfanaticos.fans/br/futebolbrasileiro/IBGE-divulga-lista-atualizada-dos-clubes-do-Brasil-com-mais-torcedores--20210902-0016.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-11-28|website=Somos Fanáticos|language=pt-br|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210905012723/https://somosfanaticos.fans/br/futebolbrasileiro/IBGE-divulga-lista-atualizada-dos-clubes-do-Brasil-com-mais-torcedores--20210902-0016.html |archive-date=5 September 2021 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=12 September 2018 |title=As maiores torcidas do Rio de Janeiro |url=https://www.campeoesdofutebol.com.br/maiores_torcidas_rio_de_janeiro.html |access-date=2022-05-17 |website=Campeoesdofutebol.com.br}}</ref>
Vasco fans are very diverse stretching across social class lines, however the core of most Vasco support lies within the working class of the [[Rio de Janeiro|Northern Zone of Rio de Janeiro]] and [[Greater Rio de Janeiro|Rio outskirt cities]] like [[Niterói]]. Vasco da Gama have significant support in other regions in Brazil, notably the [[Northeast Region, Brazil|Northeastern]] and [[North Region, Brazil|North]] regions as well as strongholds in [[Minas Gerais|southern Minas Gerais]], [[Espírito Santo]] and in [[Santa Catarina (state)|Santa Catarina]]. Vasco also have a huge support in [[Federal District (Brazil)|Distrito Federal]]; a study conducted by [[TV Globo]] concluded that Vasco were the second-most supported team in the city, behind Flamengo.<ref>{{Cite news |date=12 April 2014 |title=Flamengo lidera ranking de torcidas no DF; Vasco aparece em segundo |language=pt-br |work=globoesporte.com |url=http://ge.globo.com/df/noticia/2014/12/quase-metade-dos-torcedores-do-df-se-diz-flamenguista-vasco-em-2.html |access-date=}}</ref> As of 29 June 2022, the club has 60,326 ''sócios'' in its membership program, having its peak in December 2019 with more than 178,000 memberships.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Sócio Gigante |date=9 April 2023 |language=pt-br |url=http://sociogigante.com |access-date=29 June 2022}}</ref> In April 2023, [[CNN Brazil|CNN]] carried out a survey that revealed that Vasco is the team with the most fans considered "fanatics" in the [[Southeast Region, Brazil|Southeast Region]] clubs and among the [[G-12 (Brazilian football)|G-12]] (Big Twelve), in addition to being the third in the country.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Simões |first=Alexandre |title=Pesquisa CNN/Itatiaia/Quaest: Torcidas nordestinas são mais fanáticas; gaúchas, mais fiéis |url=https://www.cnnbrasil.com.br/esportes/pesquisa-cnn-itatiaia-quaest-torcidas-nordestinas-sao-mais-fanaticas-gauchas-mais-fieis/ |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=CNN Brasil}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-11 |title=Pesquisa aponta torcida do Sport como mais fanática do Brasil; Vasco lidera entre clubes do Sudeste |url=https://ge.globo.com/mg/futebol/noticia/2023/04/11/pesquisa-aponta-torcida-do-sport-como-mais-fanatica-do-brasil-vasco-lidera-entre-clubes-do-sudeste.ghtml |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first Brazilian team (club or national team) to win a international tournament and the first club in the world to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil. After a few years, the racism barriers fell, and Vasco became known as "Clube de todas as raças" (Club of all races).<ref>{{Cite news |date=13 November 1998 |title=Vasco da Gama Redrew the Color Line in Brazil |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |access-date=28 March 2022 |newspaper=Washington Post |archive-date=28 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170828033951/https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |url-status=live }}</ref> The club had led the move toward a more inclusive football culture, forward-thinking not employed by leaders from other Rio-based clubs like Fluminense, Flamengo and Botafogo.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

Vasco immediately secured their return to Serie A, sealing promotion to the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Série A]] on 7 November 2009 with a 2–1 victory over [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] in front of a Serie B-record 81,000 fans at [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]], and finishing as Serie B champions as well.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2009 |title=Vasco põe 81 mil no Maracanã, bate Juventude e confirma volta |url=https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=Terra |language=pt-BR |archive-date=29 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220329044117/https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

Vasco qualified for the [[2012 Copa Libertadores]] as Brazilian Cup champion, marking a return to the top South American competition after 12 years.

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues. In the [[2013 Campeonato Carioca|Taca Rio]], the club had a terrible campaign and finished seventh of eight in the table. By the end of the year, the club had been relegated for the second time in 5 years and just the second time in their history, which was secured with a 5–1 defeat to [[Atletico paranaense|Atletico Paranaense]] on the final matchday.<ref>{{Cite web |date=8 December 2013 |title=Em jogo da vergonha nas arquibancadas, Atlético-PR goleia, vai à Libertadores, e Vasco cai outra vez após cinco anos |url=http://espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=ESPN |language=pt |archive-date=22 January 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140122144501/http://www.espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |url-status=live }}</ref> In the [[2013 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]] the team entered in the round of 16, beating [[Nacional Futebol Clube|Nacional]] and then being eliminated by [[Goiás Esporte Clube|Goiás]] on away goals, despite winning the second leg 3–2.

After one season in the [[2014 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Série B during 2014]], Vasco gained promotion and in May 2015 won the [[2015 Campeonato Carioca|Campeonato Carioca]] after a 12-year hiatus. However, they were relegated again in the [[2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A|2015 edition]], placing eighteenth.

==== 2022: Takeover by 777 Partners and return to Série A ====
On 22 February 2022 it was announced that [[:en:777 Partners|777 Partners]], a Miami-based private investment firm founded by Steven W. Pasko and Josh Wander, bought a controlling stake in Vasco da Gama. According to the terms of the deal, 777 Partners acquired a 70% stake in the club which was valued at approximately $330 million.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-02-22 |title=777 Partners agrees US$137m takeover of Vasco da Gama |url=https://www.sportspromedia.com/news/vasco-da-gama-777-partners-takeover-investment/ |access-date=2022-02-28 |website=SportsPro |language=en-GB}}</ref>

On 6 November 2022, Vasco sealed their return to Série A, after a two-year absence.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the cross pattée, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

From July 2009, after breaking the partnership with Champs,<ref name="ChampsBreakup">{{cite web | title = Vasco rescinde contrato com a Champs | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 23 May 2009 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090523214217/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> to 2013, the official jerseys were produced by Penalty.<ref name="PenaltyAgreement">{{cite web | title = Clube acerta com a Penalty e vai receber R$ 64 milhões em cinco anos | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 17 October 2015 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20151017032946/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> Since 2020, the kits are made by [[Kappa (brand)]].{{Citation needed|date=January 2023}}

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

==Stadium==
{{Main|São Januário|Maracanã Stadium}}
[[File:São Januário 2020.jpg|thumb|São Januário in 2020]]
Vasco da Gama's stadium is [[São Januário]], inaugurated in 1927, with a maximum capacity of 35,000 people. For national matches, however, the stadium could only fit at most 21,880 people for security reasons.<ref name="capacity"/> Occasionally, Vasco uses the 78,000-seater [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã]] for derbies or international matches.

==Supporters==

According to census and polls, Vasco da Gama is the second most [[Fan (person)|supported]] club in Rio de Janeiro state, and varies between the third and fifth most supported club in Brazil, with an estimate of more than 15 million supporters in the country.<ref>{{Cite web|date=25 September 2021|title=As Maiores Torcidas do Brasil|trans-title=The largest fanbases in Brazil|url=https://www.rsssfbrasil.com/miscellaneous/torcidas.htm#s30|url-status=live|access-date=2021-11-28|website=Rsssf Brasil|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090117210535/http://rsssfbrasil.com:80/miscellaneous/torcidas.htm |archive-date=17 January 2009 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=3 September 2021|title=IBGE divulga lista atualizada dos clubes do Brasil com mais torcedores|url=https://somosfanaticos.fans/br/futebolbrasileiro/IBGE-divulga-lista-atualizada-dos-clubes-do-Brasil-com-mais-torcedores--20210902-0016.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-11-28|website=Somos Fanáticos|language=pt-br|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210905012723/https://somosfanaticos.fans/br/futebolbrasileiro/IBGE-divulga-lista-atualizada-dos-clubes-do-Brasil-com-mais-torcedores--20210902-0016.html |archive-date=5 September 2021 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=12 September 2018 |title=As maiores torcidas do Rio de Janeiro |url=https://www.campeoesdofutebol.com.br/maiores_torcidas_rio_de_janeiro.html |access-date=2022-05-17 |website=Campeoesdofutebol.com.br}}</ref>
Vasco fans are very diverse stretching across social class lines, however the core of most Vasco support lies within the working class of the [[Rio de Janeiro|Northern Zone of Rio de Janeiro]] and [[Greater Rio de Janeiro|Rio outskirt cities]] like [[Niterói]]. Vasco da Gama have significant support in other regions in Brazil, notably the [[Northeast Region, Brazil|Northeastern]] and [[North Region, Brazil|North]] regions as well as strongholds in [[Minas Gerais|southern Minas Gerais]], [[Espírito Santo]] and in [[Santa Catarina (state)|Santa Catarina]]. Vasco also have a huge support in [[Federal District (Brazil)|Distrito Federal]]; a study conducted by [[TV Globo]] concluded that Vasco were the second-most supported team in the city, behind Flamengo.<ref>{{Cite news |date=12 April 2014 |title=Flamengo lidera ranking de torcidas no DF; Vasco aparece em segundo |language=pt-br |work=globoesporte.com |url=http://ge.globo.com/df/noticia/2014/12/quase-metade-dos-torcedores-do-df-se-diz-flamenguista-vasco-em-2.html |access-date=}}</ref> As of 29 June 2022, the club has 60,326 ''sócios'' in its membership program, having its peak in December 2019 with more than 178,000 memberships.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Sócio Gigante |date=9 April 2023 |language=pt-br |url=http://sociogigante.com |access-date=29 June 2022}}</ref> In April 2023, [[CNN Brazil|CNN]] carried out a survey that revealed that Vasco is the team with the most fans considered "fanatics" in the [[Southeast Region, Brazil|Southeast Region]] clubs and among the [[G-12 (Brazilian football)|G-12]] (Big Twelve), in addition to being the third in the country.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Simões |first=Alexandre |title=Pesquisa CNN/Itatiaia/Quaest: Torcidas nordestinas são mais fanáticas; gaúchas, mais fiéis |url=https://www.cnnbrasil.com.br/esportes/pesquisa-cnn-itatiaia-quaest-torcidas-nordestinas-sao-mais-fanaticas-gauchas-mais-fieis/ |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=CNN Brasil}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-11 |title=Pesquisa aponta torcida do Sport como mais fanática do Brasil; Vasco lidera entre clubes do Sudeste |url=https://ge.globo.com/mg/futebol/noticia/2023/04/11/pesquisa-aponta-torcida-do-sport-como-mais-fanatica-do-brasil-vasco-lidera-entre-clubes-do-sudeste.ghtml |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first Brazilian team (club or national team) to win a international tournament and the first club in the world to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

'''Carlos Germano Schwambach Neto''' (born 14 August 1970), better known as '''Carlos Germano''', is a former [[Football in Brazil|Brazilian footballer]] who played [[Goalkeeper (association football)|goalkeeper]].

He was a member of the Brazilian [[1998 FIFA World Cup squads|squads]] that won the [[1997 Copa América]] and that reached the final of the [[1998 FIFA World Cup]] in France.<ref>[https://www.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/edition=1013/teams/team=43924.html 1998 FIFA World Cup: Brazil Squad] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090217191633/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/archive/edition%3D1013/teams/team%3D43924.html |date=17 February 2009 }} ''[[FIFA]]''. Retrieved 22 January 2010.</ref>

==Club career==


He began his football career in 1985 in his native town, and was discovered by [[Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|Vasco]]'s manager who proposed that he join the [[youth team]] for a test. In the same year he became the first choice goalkeeper for the youth side.

When Vasco's senior goalkeeper [[Acácio Cordeiro Barreto|Acácio]] left the club, Carlos Germano became the number 1 immediately. He went to receive all of the club honours and was chosen top goalkeeper of the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Brazilian Championship]] in 1997.

In 1999, he had some disagreements with Vasco's chairman and left the club. He signed with [[Santos FC|Santos]] in 2000 for four years, but one year later the club could not pay the total amount of the contract and he obtained the right to a free transfer, moving to [[Associação Portuguesa de Desportos|Portuguesa]]. From then on, he signed one year contracts with different clubs, including his first club (Vasco), until he signed with [[FC Penafiel]] (Portuguese side at the time in the second division) in 2005.

==International career==
Carlos Germano represented his country at the [[1987 FIFA U-16 World Championship]] and the [[1989 FIFA World Youth Championship]].<ref>{{FIFA player|170683}}</ref> In 1988, he was chosen as Brazil's goalkeeper in the [[1988 South American U-20 Championship|South American U-20 Championship]].

He went on to earn 9 senior caps for [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]] between 1995 and 1998.

==Coaching career==
After retiring at the end of the 2005–06 Portuguese season, he subsequently embraced a career as a goalkeeping coach.

When Vasco's senior goalkeeper [[Acácio Cordeiro Barreto|Acácio]] left the club, Carlos Germano became the number 1 immediately. He went to receive all of the club honours and was chosen top goalkeeper of the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Brazilian Championship]] in 1997.

In 1999, he had some disagreements with Vasco's chairman and left the club. He signed with [[Santos FC|Santos]] in 2000 for four years, but one year later the club could not pay the total amount of the contract and he obtained the right to a free transfer, moving to [[Associação Portuguesa de Desportos|Portuguesa]]. From then on, he signed one year contracts with different clubs, including his first club (Vasco), until he signed with [[FC Penafiel]] (Portuguese side at the time in the second division) in 2005.

==International career==
Carlos Germano represented his country at the [[1987 FIFA U-16 World Championship]] and the [[1989 FIFA World Youth Championship]].<ref>{{FIFA player|170683}}</ref> In 1988, he was chosen as Brazil's goalkeeper in the [[1988 South American U-20 Championship|South American U-20 Championship]].

He went on to earn 9 senior caps for [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]] between 1995 and 1998.

==Coaching career==
After retiring at the end of the 2005–06 Portuguese season, he subsequently embraced a career as a goalkeeping coach.

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

Its [[Youth system|youth academy]], which has brought up [[List of Brazil international footballers|international footballers]] such as [[Romário]], [[Philippe Coutinho]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini]], [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edmundo (footballer)|Edmundo]], is well known for its socio-educational methodology.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-03-08 |title=De Coutinho a Andrey: Colégio Vasco da Gama completa 20 anos e recebe parabéns de formados no clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/futebol/times/vasco/noticia/2024/03/08/de-coutinho-a-andrey-colegio-vasco-da-gama-completa-20-anos-e-recebe-parabens-de-formados-no-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

At the national level, Vasco da Gama has won four [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], three [[Torneio Rio–São Paulo]] and one [[Copa do Brasil]]. In international club football, the club has won one [[Copa Libertadores]], one [[South American Championship of Champions]], and one [[Copa Mercosur]]. At the state level, the club has also won 24 [[Campeonato Carioca]]. The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil. After a few years, the racism barriers fell, and Vasco became known as "Clube de todas as raças" (Club of all races).<ref>{{Cite news |date=13 November 1998 |title=Vasco da Gama Redrew the Color Line in Brazil |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |access-date=28 March 2022 |newspaper=Washington Post |archive-date=28 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170828033951/https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |url-status=live }}</ref> The club had led the move toward a more inclusive football culture, forward-thinking not employed by leaders from other Rio-based clubs like Fluminense, Flamengo and Botafogo.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

On 21 April 1927, Vasco's Stadium was inaugurated with a match against [[Santos FC|Santos]]. Santos won the match 5–3.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Históry 1924-1943|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=NetVasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030924200653/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html |archive-date=24 September 2003 }}</ref> On 26 April 1931, Vasco had a historic 7–0 victory over rivals Flamengo; this is the largest victory margin between the two clubs in the amateur era.

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

Vasco immediately secured their return to Serie A, sealing promotion to the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Série A]] on 7 November 2009 with a 2–1 victory over [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] in front of a Serie B-record 81,000 fans at [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]], and finishing as Serie B champions as well.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2009 |title=Vasco põe 81 mil no Maracanã, bate Juventude e confirma volta |url=https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=Terra |language=pt-BR |archive-date=29 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220329044117/https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the cross pattée, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

==Stadium==
{{Main|São Januário|Maracanã Stadium}}
[[File:São Januário 2020.jpg|thumb|São Januário in 2020]]
Vasco da Gama's stadium is [[São Januário]], inaugurated in 1927, with a maximum capacity of 35,000 people. For national matches, however, the stadium could only fit at most 21,880 people for security reasons.<ref name="capacity"/> Occasionally, Vasco uses the 78,000-seater [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã]] for derbies or international matches.

==Supporters==

According to census and polls, Vasco da Gama is the second most [[Fan (person)|supported]] club in Rio de Janeiro state, and varies between the third and fifth most supported club in Brazil, with an estimate of more than 15 million supporters in the country.<ref>{{Cite web|date=25 September 2021|title=As Maiores Torcidas do Brasil|trans-title=The largest fanbases in Brazil|url=https://www.rsssfbrasil.com/miscellaneous/torcidas.htm#s30|url-status=live|access-date=2021-11-28|website=Rsssf Brasil|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090117210535/http://rsssfbrasil.com:80/miscellaneous/torcidas.htm |archive-date=17 January 2009 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=3 September 2021|title=IBGE divulga lista atualizada dos clubes do Brasil com mais torcedores|url=https://somosfanaticos.fans/br/futebolbrasileiro/IBGE-divulga-lista-atualizada-dos-clubes-do-Brasil-com-mais-torcedores--20210902-0016.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-11-28|website=Somos Fanáticos|language=pt-br|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210905012723/https://somosfanaticos.fans/br/futebolbrasileiro/IBGE-divulga-lista-atualizada-dos-clubes-do-Brasil-com-mais-torcedores--20210902-0016.html |archive-date=5 September 2021 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=12 September 2018 |title=As maiores torcidas do Rio de Janeiro |url=https://www.campeoesdofutebol.com.br/maiores_torcidas_rio_de_janeiro.html |access-date=2022-05-17 |website=Campeoesdofutebol.com.br}}</ref>
Vasco fans are very diverse stretching across social class lines, however the core of most Vasco support lies within the working class of the [[Rio de Janeiro|Northern Zone of Rio de Janeiro]] and [[Greater Rio de Janeiro|Rio outskirt cities]] like [[Niterói]]. Vasco da Gama have significant support in other regions in Brazil, notably the [[Northeast Region, Brazil|Northeastern]] and [[North Region, Brazil|North]] regions as well as strongholds in [[Minas Gerais|southern Minas Gerais]], [[Espírito Santo]] and in [[Santa Catarina (state)|Santa Catarina]]. Vasco also have a huge support in [[Federal District (Brazil)|Distrito Federal]]; a study conducted by [[TV Globo]] concluded that Vasco were the second-most supported team in the city, behind Flamengo.<ref>{{Cite news |date=12 April 2014 |title=Flamengo lidera ranking de torcidas no DF; Vasco aparece em segundo |language=pt-br |work=globoesporte.com |url=http://ge.globo.com/df/noticia/2014/12/quase-metade-dos-torcedores-do-df-se-diz-flamenguista-vasco-em-2.html |access-date=}}</ref> As of 29 June 2022, the club has 60,326 ''sócios'' in its membership program, having its peak in December 2019 with more than 178,000 memberships.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Sócio Gigante |date=9 April 2023 |language=pt-br |url=http://sociogigante.com |access-date=29 June 2022}}</ref> In April 2023, [[CNN Brazil|CNN]] carried out a survey that revealed that Vasco is the team with the most fans considered "fanatics" in the [[Southeast Region, Brazil|Southeast Region]] clubs and among the [[G-12 (Brazilian football)|G-12]] (Big Twelve), in addition to being the third in the country.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Simões |first=Alexandre |title=Pesquisa CNN/Itatiaia/Quaest: Torcidas nordestinas são mais fanáticas; gaúchas, mais fiéis |url=https://www.cnnbrasil.com.br/esportes/pesquisa-cnn-itatiaia-quaest-torcidas-nordestinas-sao-mais-fanaticas-gauchas-mais-fieis/ |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=CNN Brasil}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-11 |title=Pesquisa aponta torcida do Sport como mais fanática do Brasil; Vasco lidera entre clubes do Sudeste |url=https://ge.globo.com/mg/futebol/noticia/2023/04/11/pesquisa-aponta-torcida-do-sport-como-mais-fanatica-do-brasil-vasco-lidera-entre-clubes-do-sudeste.ghtml |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first Brazilian team (club or national team) to win a international tournament and the first club in the world to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil.

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

On 21 April 1927, Vasco's Stadium was inaugurated with a match against [[Santos FC|Santos]]. Santos won the match 5–3.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Históry 1924-1943|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=NetVasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030924200653/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html |archive-date=24 September 2003 }}</ref> On 26 April 1931, Vasco had a historic 7–0 victory over rivals Flamengo; this is the largest victory margin between the two clubs in the amateur era.

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

Vasco immediately secured their return to Serie A, sealing promotion to the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Série A]] on 7 November 2009 with a 2–1 victory over [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] in front of a Serie B-record 81,000 fans at [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]], and finishing as Serie B champions as well.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2009 |title=Vasco põe 81 mil no Maracanã, bate Juventude e confirma volta |url=https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=Terra |language=pt-BR |archive-date=29 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220329044117/https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

A win on the last matchday would've given them the title, as Corinthians drew their match, but Flamengo held Vasco to a draw. The club also ended the year as semifinalists in the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana|Copa Sudamericana]], a competition that saw the club defeat [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], [[Club Aurora|Aurora]] and [[Club Universitario de Deportes|Universitario]] in historic fashion before being eliminated by eventual champion [[Club Universidad de Chile|Universidad de Chile]] on away goals. The season was dubbed as ''"Vasco's Redemption Year"'', with many lauding Vasco as one of [[Football in Brazil|Brazilian football]]'s elite teams once again.

====2012: Return to Copa Libertadores====

Vasco's played their first final of 2012 in the [[2012 Campeonato Carioca#Taça Guanabara|Taca Guanabara]], losing 1–3 to Fluminense after eliminating Flamengo in the semifinals. Two months later, they were playing a final again, this time losing to Botafogo in the [[2012 Campeonato Carioca#Taça Rio|Taca Rio]], eliminating Flamengo in the semifinals again.

Vasco qualified for the [[2012 Copa Libertadores]] as Brazilian Cup champion, marking a return to the top South American competition after 12 years.

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues. In the [[2013 Campeonato Carioca|Taca Rio]], the club had a terrible campaign and finished seventh of eight in the table.

==== 2022: Takeover by 777 Partners and return to Série A ====
On 22 February 2022 it was announced that [[:en:777 Partners|777 Partners]], a Miami-based private investment firm founded by Steven W. Pasko and Josh Wander, bought a controlling stake in Vasco da Gama. According to the terms of the deal, 777 Partners acquired a 70% stake in the club which was valued at approximately $330 million.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-02-22 |title=777 Partners agrees US$137m takeover of Vasco da Gama |url=https://www.sportspromedia.com/news/vasco-da-gama-777-partners-takeover-investment/ |access-date=2022-02-28 |website=SportsPro |language=en-GB}}</ref>

On 6 November 2022, Vasco sealed their return to Série A, after a two-year absence.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the cross pattée, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

From July 2009, after breaking the partnership with Champs,<ref name="ChampsBreakup">{{cite web | title = Vasco rescinde contrato com a Champs | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 23 May 2009 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090523214217/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> to 2013, the official jerseys were produced by Penalty.<ref name="PenaltyAgreement">{{cite web | title = Clube acerta com a Penalty e vai receber R$ 64 milhões em cinco anos | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 17 October 2015 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20151017032946/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> Since 2020, the kits are made by [[Kappa (brand)]].{{Citation needed|date=January 2023}}

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

==Stadium==
{{Main|São Januário|Maracanã Stadium}}
[[File:São Januário 2020.jpg|thumb|São Januário in 2020]]
Vasco da Gama's stadium is [[São Januário]], inaugurated in 1927, with a maximum capacity of 35,000 people. For national matches, however, the stadium could only fit at most 21,880 people for security reasons.<ref name="capacity"/> Occasionally, Vasco uses the 78,000-seater [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã]] for derbies or international matches.

==Supporters==

According to census and polls, Vasco da Gama is the second most [[Fan (person)|supported]] club in Rio de Janeiro state, and varies between the third and fifth most supported club in Brazil, with an estimate of more than 15 million supporters in the country.<ref>{{Cite web|date=25 September 2021|title=As Maiores Torcidas do Brasil|trans-title=The largest fanbases in Brazil|url=https://www.rsssfbrasil.com/miscellaneous/torcidas.htm#s30|url-status=live|access-date=2021-11-28|website=Rsssf Brasil|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090117210535/http://rsssfbrasil.com:80/miscellaneous/torcidas.htm |archive-date=17 January 2009 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=3 September 2021|title=IBGE divulga lista atualizada dos clubes do Brasil com mais torcedores|url=https://somosfanaticos.fans/br/futebolbrasileiro/IBGE-divulga-lista-atualizada-dos-clubes-do-Brasil-com-mais-torcedores--20210902-0016.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-11-28|website=Somos Fanáticos|language=pt-br|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210905012723/https://somosfanaticos.fans/br/futebolbrasileiro/IBGE-divulga-lista-atualizada-dos-clubes-do-Brasil-com-mais-torcedores--20210902-0016.html |archive-date=5 September 2021 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=12 September 2018 |title=As maiores torcidas do Rio de Janeiro |url=https://www.campeoesdofutebol.com.br/maiores_torcidas_rio_de_janeiro.html |access-date=2022-05-17 |website=Campeoesdofutebol.com.br}}</ref>
Vasco fans are very diverse stretching across social class lines, however the core of most Vasco support lies within the working class of the [[Rio de Janeiro|Northern Zone of Rio de Janeiro]] and [[Greater Rio de Janeiro|Rio outskirt cities]] like [[Niterói]]. Vasco da Gama have significant support in other regions in Brazil, notably the [[Northeast Region, Brazil|Northeastern]] and [[North Region, Brazil|North]] regions as well as strongholds in [[Minas Gerais|southern Minas Gerais]], [[Espírito Santo]] and in [[Santa Catarina (state)|Santa Catarina]]. Vasco also have a huge support in [[Federal District (Brazil)|Distrito Federal]]; a study conducted by [[TV Globo]] concluded that Vasco were the second-most supported team in the city, behind Flamengo.<ref>{{Cite news |date=12 April 2014 |title=Flamengo lidera ranking de torcidas no DF; Vasco aparece em segundo |language=pt-br |work=globoesporte.com |url=http://ge.globo.com/df/noticia/2014/12/quase-metade-dos-torcedores-do-df-se-diz-flamenguista-vasco-em-2.html |access-date=}}</ref> As of 29 June 2022, the club has 60,326 ''sócios'' in its membership program, having its peak in December 2019 with more than 178,000 memberships.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Sócio Gigante |date=9 April 2023 |language=pt-br |url=http://sociogigante.com |access-date=29 June 2022}}</ref> In April 2023, [[CNN Brazil|CNN]] carried out a survey that revealed that Vasco is the team with the most fans considered "fanatics" in the [[Southeast Region, Brazil|Southeast Region]] clubs and among the [[G-12 (Brazilian football)|G-12]] (Big Twelve), in addition to being the third in the country.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Simões |first=Alexandre |title=Pesquisa CNN/Itatiaia/Quaest: Torcidas nordestinas são mais fanáticas; gaúchas, mais fiéis |url=https://www.cnnbrasil.com.br/esportes/pesquisa-cnn-itatiaia-quaest-torcidas-nordestinas-sao-mais-fanaticas-gauchas-mais-fieis/ |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=CNN Brasil}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-11 |title=Pesquisa aponta torcida do Sport como mais fanática do Brasil; Vasco lidera entre clubes do Sudeste |url=https://ge.globo.com/mg/futebol/noticia/2023/04/11/pesquisa-aponta-torcida-do-sport-como-mais-fanatica-do-brasil-vasco-lidera-entre-clubes-do-sudeste.ghtml |access-date=2023-10-28 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first Brazilian team (club or national team) to win a international tournament and the first club in the world to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

The '''Choque-Rei''' ([[English language|English]]: Clash of Kings) is the name given to [[SE Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] and [[São Paulo FC|São Paulo]] football rivalry matches. It is contested between two very big, classic football clubs. The [[Local derby|derby]] dates back to 1930. The tension between both clubs and fanbases is extremely fierce, and it is considered the one of the biggest derbies in the [[São Paulo|city of São Paulo]] and in [[Football in Brazil|Brazilian football]].

Palmeiras has a slight advantadge in head-to-head statistics, with 117 wins against 116 from São Paulo and other 115 drawn matches, making for a balanced encounter. In [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]] matches, Palmeiras has a larger advantage with 28 wins, while São Paulo won 17, and other 33 matches ended in a draw.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://futpedia.globo.com/confronto/palmeiras-x-sao-paulo#/anoInicio=1930/anoFim=2016/campeonato=26/agregador=-1|title=Ge.globo - É esporte sempre|website=Futpedia.globo.com|access-date=September 19, 2016|archive-date=September 11, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160911223821/http://futpedia.globo.com/confronto/palmeiras-x-sao-paulo#/anoInicio=1930/anoFim=2016/campeonato=26/agregador=-1|url-status=dead}}</ref>

The two teams have their training centers separated by only a wall, being nicknamed by many as the "[[Berlin Wall]]".<ref>{{Cite web |last=Paulo |first=Por Alexandre LozettiSão |date=2014-01-31 |title=‘Muro de Berlim’ divide Palmeiras e São Paulo com espionagem e apostas |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/sp/futebol/campeonato-paulista/noticia/2014/01/muro-de-berlim-divide-palmeiras-e-sao-paulo-com-espionagem-e-apostas.html |access-date=2024-05-22 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

== History ==
The first meeting between [[São Paulo FC|São Paulo]] and [[SE Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] (at the time called Palestra Itália) began in the [[1930 Campeonato Paulista]], with a 2–2 draw. The rivalry blossomed in the 1940s, because between 1942 and 1950, São Paulo and Palmeiras were state protagonists. São Paulo won five [[Campeonato Paulista]] titles ([[1943 Campeonato Paulista|1943]], [[1945 Campeonato Paulista|1945]], [[1946 Campeonato Paulista|1946]], [[1948 Campeonato Paulista|1948]] and [[1949 Campeonato Paulista|1949]]), while Palmeiras won four ([[1942 Campeonato Paulista|1942]], [[1944 Campeonato Paulista|1944]], [[1947 Campeonato Paulista|1947]] and [[1950 Campeonato Paulista|1950]]).<ref name=":0" /> At that time, the rivalry between the two teams was responsible for bringing crowds to the stadiums. The magnitude of the duel caused journalist Thomaz Mazzoni, from the newspaper ''A Gazeta Esportiva'', to highlight the classic as "Choque-Rei" (Clash of Kings).<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Palmeiras x São Paulo: Entenda a origem do termo "Choque-Rei" |url=https://social-content.sbt.com.br/noticia/177165-palmeiras-x-sao-paulo-entenda-a-origem-do-termo-choque-rei |access-date=December 25, 2023 |website=sbt.com.br}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Thomaz Mazzoni |url=https://museudofutebol.org.br/noticias/ |access-date=December 25, 2023 |website=Museu do Futebol |language=pt-BR}}</ref>

'''Moacir Barbosa do Nascimento''' (27 March 1921 – 7 April 2000) was a Brazilian professional footballer who played as a [[goalkeeper (association football)|goalkeeper]]. His career spanned 22 years. He was regarded as one of the world's best goalkeepers in the 1940s and 1950s, and was known for not wearing gloves, as would be typical. Barbosa is mainly associated with [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]]'s defeat against underdogs [[Uruguay national football team|Uruguay]] in the decisive match of the [[1950 FIFA World Cup]], an upset dubbed the ''[[Maracanazo]]''. Barbosa is also known for his achievements at [[CR Vasco da Gama|Vasco da Gama]], especially the first [[South American Championship of Champions|South American Championship]], and the club's domination in the [[Campeonato Carioca]] in 1940s and 1950s.

==Club career==
===Success with Vasco da Gama===

At club level, Barbosa had his greatest successes with [[Rio de Janeiro]] side [[CR Vasco da Gama]]. He won several trophies at Vasco, including the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]], the original precursor to the [[Copa Libertadores]].

==International career==
===1949 Copa América===

With the [[Brazil national football team|Brazilian national side]], Barbosa won the 1949 [[Copa América]]. The 7–0 final victory over [[Paraguayan national football team|Paraguay]] remains to date the highest victory in a final of the competition.

===The ''Maracanazo'' and its aftermath===
At the [[1950 FIFA World Cup]] held on home soil, Brazil played [[Uruguay national football team|Uruguay]] in the decisive match of the World Cup finals at the [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]] stadium in Rio de Janeiro. Brazil was heavily favoured to win and needed only a draw to win the [[round-robin tournament]], but despite scoring first, they lost 2–1 when [[Alcides Ghiggia]] scored the winning goal for Uruguay in the 79th minute after skilfully dribbling past defender [[Bigode]] and then drilling the ball into the net while Barbosa was out of position, expecting a cross into the middle. The loss stunned Brazilians and plunged the country into mourning over what became known as the ''[[Uruguay v Brazil (1950 FIFA World Cup)|Maracanazo]]'', or "the Maracanã blow". Barbosa was blamed for the defeat, for which he suffered for the rest of his life as the match became part of Brazilian folklore.

In 1963, Barbosa was presented with the old square wooden goalposts from the Maracanã as a present, which he took home and burned.<ref name="knol">{{cite web | url = http://knol.google.com/k/the-unforgiven# | title = Unforgiven | work = Soccer Tactics (via Google Knol) | date = 21 November 2008 | accessdate = 16 September 2010 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20100213095408/http://knol.google.com/k/the-unforgiven | archive-date = 13 February 2010 | url-status = dead }}</ref> Thirty years later, the president of the [[Brazilian Football Confederation]], [[Ricardo Teixeira]], did not allow him to be a commentator for the broadcast of an international match.<ref>[http://www.sambafoot.com/en/articles/30_Maracana_the_largest_stadium_of_the_world_page_2.html Maracanã, the largest stadium of the world] – Sambafoot.com</ref>

In 2000, Barbosa said in an interview: "The maximum punishment in Brazil is 30 years' imprisonment, but I have been paying, for something I am not even responsible for, by now, for 50 years."<ref>[http://www.goal.com/en/news/2377/top-10/2009/10/27/1587400/top-10-world-cup-goalkeeping-blunders Top 10 World Cup Goalkeeping Blunders]</ref> On 7 April of the same year, he died of a heart attack at the age of 79.<ref>{{cite news| url=https://www.theguardian.com/news/2000/apr/13/guardianobituaries.alexbellos | location=London | work=The Guardian | first=Alex | last=Bellos | title= Moacir Barbosa | date=13 April 2000}}</ref>

==In popular culture==
Barbosa plays a large role in [[Ian McDonald (author)|Ian McDonald]]'s science fiction novel ''[[Brasyl]]''. He is the subject of the biography ''[[The Last Save of Moacyr Barbosa]]'', by Darwin Pastorin.

A Brazilian short film named ''Barbosa'', premiered in 1988, in which a 49-year-old man (played by [[Antônio Fagundes]]) travels back in time trying to prevent Ghiggia's goal.<ref>[http://www.casacinepoa.com.br/en/the-movies/production/short-films/barbosa Casa do Cinema de Porto Alegre - Barbosa]</ref>

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

Its [[Youth system|youth academy]], which has brought up [[List of Brazil international footballers|international footballers]] such as [[Romário]], [[Philippe Coutinho]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini]], [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edmundo (footballer)|Edmundo]], is well known for its socio-educational methodology.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-03-08 |title=De Coutinho a Andrey: Colégio Vasco da Gama completa 20 anos e recebe parabéns de formados no clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/futebol/times/vasco/noticia/2024/03/08/de-coutinho-a-andrey-colegio-vasco-da-gama-completa-20-anos-e-recebe-parabens-de-formados-no-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

At the national level, Vasco da Gama has won four [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], three [[Torneio Rio–São Paulo]] and one [[Copa do Brasil]]. In international club football, the club has won one [[Copa Libertadores]], one [[South American Championship of Champions]], and one [[Copa Mercosur]]. At the state level, the club has also won 24 [[Campeonato Carioca]]. The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil.

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

On 21 April 1927, Vasco's Stadium was inaugurated with a match against [[Santos FC|Santos]]. Santos won the match 5–3.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Históry 1924-1943|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=NetVasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030924200653/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html |archive-date=24 September 2003 }}</ref> On 26 April 1931, Vasco had a historic 7–0 victory over rivals Flamengo; this is the largest victory margin between the two clubs in the amateur era.

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

Vasco immediately secured their return to Serie A, sealing promotion to the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Série A]] on 7 November 2009 with a 2–1 victory over [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] in front of a Serie B-record 81,000 fans at [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]], and finishing as Serie B champions as well.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2009 |title=Vasco põe 81 mil no Maracanã, bate Juventude e confirma volta |url=https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=Terra |language=pt-BR |archive-date=29 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220329044117/https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

A win on the last matchday would've given them the title, as Corinthians drew their match, but Flamengo held Vasco to a draw. The club also ended the year as semifinalists in the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana|Copa Sudamericana]], a competition that saw the club defeat [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], [[Club Aurora|Aurora]] and [[Club Universitario de Deportes|Universitario]] in historic fashion before being eliminated by eventual champion [[Club Universidad de Chile|Universidad de Chile]] on away goals. The season was dubbed as ''"Vasco's Redemption Year"'', with many lauding Vasco as one of [[Football in Brazil|Brazilian football]]'s elite teams once again.

{{Main|2013 CR Vasco da Gama season}}

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues. In the [[2013 Campeonato Carioca|Taca Rio]], the club had a terrible campaign and finished seventh of eight in the table. By the end of the year, the club had been relegated for the second time in 5 years and just the second time in their history, which was secured with a 5–1 defeat to [[Atletico paranaense|Atletico Paranaense]] on the final matchday.<ref>{{Cite web |date=8 December 2013 |title=Em jogo da vergonha nas arquibancadas, Atlético-PR goleia, vai à Libertadores, e Vasco cai outra vez após cinco anos |url=http://espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=ESPN |language=pt |archive-date=22 January 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140122144501/http://www.espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |url-status=live }}</ref> In the [[2013 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]] the team entered in the round of 16, beating [[Nacional Futebol Clube|Nacional]] and then being eliminated by [[Goiás Esporte Clube|Goiás]] on away goals, despite winning the second leg 3–2.

However, they were relegated again in the [[2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A|2015 edition]], placing eighteenth.

On 6 November 2022, Vasco sealed their return to Série A, after a two-year absence.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the cross pattée, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

Vasco da Gama's stadium is [[São Januário]], inaugurated in 1927, with a maximum capacity of 35,000 people. For national matches, however, the stadium could only fit at most 21,880 people for security reasons.<ref name="capacity"/> Occasionally, Vasco uses the 78,000-seater [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã]] for derbies or international matches.

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first Brazilian team (club or national team) to win a international tournament and the first club in the world to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

'''Clássico dos Milhões''' (Derby of the Millions) is the [[association football]] [[Football derby|derby]] between [[CR Flamengo]] and [[CR Vasco da Gama]], both from the city of [[Rio de Janeiro]], Brazil. Considered one of the most fiercely contested derbies in [[Football in Brazil|Brazilian football]], both in historic rivalry and in popularity. It has been named that way since its beginnings in the 1920s, as Flamengo and Vasco have the two largest fan bases in the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Flamengo x Vasco: o Clássico dos Milhões :: :: ogol.com.br |url=https://www.ogol.com.br/text.php?id=11971 |access-date=2023-02-24 |website=www.ogol.com.br |language=PT-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Farah |first=Yoosof |title=Clássico dos Milhões: World Football's Fiercest Rivalry? |url=https://bleacherreport.com/articles/138569-clssico-dos-milhes-world-footballs-fiercest-rivalry |access-date=2023-02-24 |website=Bleacher Report |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Flamengo x Vasco: quem venceu mais vezes o Clássico dos Milhões? {{!}} Goal.com |url=https://www.goal.com/br/not%C3%ADcias/flamengo-x-vasco-quem-venceu-mais-vezes-o-classico-dos/1vpowu81nvspb1bcg48vsk6iyv |access-date=2023-02-24 |website=www.goal.com}}</ref>

[[Opinion poll|Poll estimations]], though variable, attribute Flamengo and Vasco two of the five largest Brazilian fanbases, usually with Flamengo at first and Vasco at fifth. At Rio de Janeiro state level, polls suggest that both clubs have the two largest declared supporter bases, with Flamengo at first in that matter.

Flamengo and Vasco have clashed in decisive and important matches in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] and [[Copa do Brasil]], even deciding the finals of the latter in the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|2006 edition]].

Its intense rivalry, though more stressed in football since 1923 when Vasco rose to first division, started already in the prior decades in rowing ''[[regatta|regatte]]'', as both clubs were founded in the late 19th century (Vasco in 1898 and Flamengo in 1895) as rowing clubs. Both teams also compete often at national level in other sports such as [[basketball]], [[swimming (sport)|swimming]], [[futsal]] and [[judo]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Vasco faz Clássico dos Milhões com o Flamengo no Maracanã – Vasco da Gama |url=https://vasco.com.br/vasco-faz-classico-dos-milhoes-com-o-flamengo-no-maracana/ |access-date=2023-02-24 |language=pt-BR}}</ref>

== History ==
{{More sources needed|section|date=March 2008}}

=== Early days ===
Since the beginning of this derby, it capitalized on the already-existing rivalry in rowing. But it took a whole new scale as football opened to the masses.

The largest win in the history of the ''Clássico dos Milhões'' took place at the beginning of the 1930s. In the [[1931 Campeonato Carioca]], Vasco thrashed Flamengo 7–0, with Russinho scoring four goals.

=== The 1958 "Super Championship" ===
At that time, both clubs were already known for their popular appeal, but the derby still did not have a huge decisive match such as the finals of the ''Supercampeonato Carioca''. This was the nickname given to the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]], which was considered unique as [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], Flamengo and Vasco had to play a tie-breaking triangular twice. The final match was disputed by Flamengo and Vasco, the latter playing for a draw which was eventually obtained. After this title, Vasco did not won a single state championship for 12 year, a setback that promoted other rivalries in [[Rio de Janeiro]] football, such as [[:pt:Clássico da Rivalidade|the one between Flamengo and Botafogo]] and the [[Fla–Flu|Fla-Flu]] throughout the 1960s.

=== The 1972–2001 period ===
This period established the derby's reputation as the top one in Rio and eventually in Brazil, surpassing the traditional [[Fla-Flu]]. In the span of 30 years, at least one of the teams managed to reach every final phase of the Rio state league. It also corresponds barely to the creation of the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Brazilian National Championship]] in [[1971 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1971]], which displayed the popularity of both teams across the country, especially in [[North Region, Brazil|northern]]/[[Northeast Region, Brazil|northeastern]] states, but also [[South Region, Brazil|southern]] states such as [[Santa Catarina (state)|Santa Catarina]], where often they constitute the main fanbases.

==== Rio state level ====
Given the once-traditional structure of Rio state league divided in ''turno'' and ''returno'' occasionally complemented by a shorter third ''turno'' with the top overall teams, Vasco and Flamengo have clinched 50 out of the 68 turnos (25 each). In 4 occasions an extra play-off between both teams was needed to decide the turno. In 9 occasions the derby was the last-round decisive game for both teams.

The first ''turno'' of Rio de Janeiro state league, named "[[Taça Guanabara]]" is given an extra importance, as it incorporates a previously traditional competition from only the inner-city clubs. Flamengo clinched it 13 times and Vasco 9 in this period.

They also participated together in a final phase (in direct titles decisions, triangular, quadrangular or semifinals) in 17 occasions out of 24. In 6 occasions, a final phase was not necessary as one team have won all ''turnos'', this occurred 3 times for Vasco in 1977, 1992 and 1998 and also to Flamengo in 1978, 1979 and 1996.

Flamengo ended up winning 11 titles in that period, while Vasco won 8. This in particular stems from Flamengo's three consecutive titles from 1999 to 2001.

==== National level ====
Though less frequent in the Campeonato Brasileiro, Flamengo and Vasco still have made decisive matches in final phases of the championship 3 times. Flamengo won in the [[1983 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1983 edition]] quarterfinals. In [[1992 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1992]] and [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], both played in the same group of the second stage, in which the 1st place of the group would advance to the finals. Flamengo advanced in 1992 and Vasco eliminated their rivals in 1997, even winning the derby in the last round 4–1. Both teams, in the 1971–2001 period, were two of the most successful ones in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Série A]], as Flamengo had won 5 titles by then, and Vasco da Gama had won 4.

==== Roberto Dinamite vs. Zico ====
At a time, the rivalry was personified in both players, still today considered the two most important players of each clubs' history that played for about the same time lapse. Though [[Roberto Dinamite|Roberto]] started playing earlier, both reached early stardom around 1974 and continued until the late 1980s. Both players crystallized their teams' style of play, [[Zico (footballer)|Zico]] embodying the more technical, refined Flamengo of the 1980s and Roberto the attacking and passionate style of Vasco at the time. His nickname, Dinamite, came after his powerful shots, given at the time he scored his first goal as a professional in 1972. The first big matches between the two started in the play-offs of [[1976 Campeonato Carioca|1976 Taça Guanabara]], where Zico missed a penalty kick, awarding the ''turno'' title to Vasco. The same occurred a year later, giving Vasco the overall title. Later on, Flamengo had a clear edge as it swept all ''turnos'' in [[1978 Campeonato Carioca|1978]] and [[Campeonato Carioca|1979]] (including the 1979 Special championship). In the early 1980s, Vasco saw Flamengo raise to its three national titles then but still consistently gave a run for the money of their arch-rivals, as in the 1980 finals. After being the runners-up three times in a row, from 1978 to [[1981 Campeonato Carioca|1981]], ending behind Flamengo and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], Vasco eventually defeated the brilliant world-champion Flamengo side in [[1982 Campeonato Carioca|1982]] to win the Carioca title again. Both players always displayed enormous respect for their opponents and somehow were constantly admired by the other side.

==== Tita and Bebeto ====
After the Zico and Roberto phase, both teams experienced a transition period, though still maintaining a high standard. In that period some important players change sides, raising some passionate and controversial discussions. First, [[Milton Queiroz da Paixão|Tita]] that had started his career playing for Flamengo but later on, joined Vasco. He even scored the winning goal in the 1987 Carioca finals in Vasco's 1–0 victory. [[Bebeto]] also followed the same path and offered Vasco brilliant participation in the 1989 Brazilian league title, before going to Europe and eventually winning the [[1994 World Cup]] alongside [[Romário]].

==== 1988 ====
In this year, the two teams decided the title in direct play-offs for the third time in a row. Flamengo had clinched the [[1986 Campeonato Carioca|1986]] title and Vasco the [[1987 Campeonato Carioca|1987 one]]. They ended up deciding the [[1988 Campeonato Carioca|1988 title]], in which Vasco confirmed its status as favorite and won the last game 1–0 while, playing with the advantage in case of a draw. The winning goal only came with 1 minute left to play and was scored by [[Cocada (footballer)|Cocada]], who came on as a substitute a few minutes before. He ended up being sent off for a provocative celebration, but Vasco still won their 17th Carioca title.

==== Romário ====
[[Romário]] eschewed this rivalry, being ambiguous about his support, as he declared supporting neither club, but rather América, a smaller and formerly prestigious club of Rio. Romário started his career playing for Vasco and started as a professional in 1986, clinching the 1987 state title. After moving to [[PSV Eindhoven]], and later, [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]], he decided to join Flamengo in 1995 when returning to Brazil, which outraged Vasco supporters. Despite this, he was still hired by Vasco in the late 1990s. Romário was somewhat forgiven as he won Vasco's fourth Brazilian title in 2000 and the [[Copa Mercosur|Mercosur Cup]] in 2001, contrasting with his time playing for Flamengo, in which he only won the Carioca title of [[1996 Campeonato Carioca|1996]]. He was also the top striker of the Brazilian championship for Vasco twice, in 2000 and 2005, the latter at age 40.

==== 2001 ====
The derby had very balanced statistics at this time, with a slight advantage from Flamengo, specially in decisive matches. By the time of the late 1990s, Vasco was finally the major Carioca winner since 1923, when they started playing it, ahead of Flamengo and Fluminense. However, Flamengo made a comeback in that matter, as in early 2001 they won their third state championship in a row, being that all of them were won defeating Vasco in the finals. These wins of Flamengo happened during one of the greatest periods in Vasco's history, as they won two Brazilian titles and two South American titles. Due to these performances by Vasco, in each final between the two from [[1998 Campeonato Carioca|1998]] to [[2001 Campeonato Carioca|2001]], Flamengo was not considered the most likely side to win. Their third title, in 2001, came in a specially dramatic way, as Vasco played the last game with a one-goal advantage and as [[Dejan Petković|Petković]] scored a late winner for Flamengo, making it 3–1. For Flamengo fans, it was an answer from their club to humiliating defeats imposed by Vasco at the time, including two 5–1 wins.

=== 2001–2012 ===
Since 2001 when Flamengo achieved three consecutive Carioca titles and Vasco won the [[Mercosur Cup]], both teams have been plagued by financial problems and have simultaneously reached an unprecedented decline, struggling to avoid the spots of relegation to [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Brazilian second division]]. However, Vasco and Flamengo still won since one state league title each, in [[2003 Campeonato Carioca|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Carioca|2004]], respectively.

==== 2006 ====
The clubs decided the finals of the [[2006 Copa do Brasil]]. Though it was less prestigious at the time as the Brazilian clubs that were playing the [[Copa Libertadores]] did not compete in the [[Copa do Brasil|tournament]], this was considered the most important match in the history of the derby, as it was the first final between the two at a national level. Flamengo won the two legs and took the title, defeating Vasco 3–0 on aggregate. This was the second Cup title for the ''scarlet-blacks'', while Vasco still did not have won the tournament by then. Due to this title, Flamengo also managed to win its fifth final in a row against Vasco in recent years.

==== 2008–2011 ====
In [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008]], Vasco dropped to the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série B]], in a campaign in which they lost both matches against Flamengo. This was the first time one of the two were relegated in the Brazilian Championship. In the first match between two after that, Vasco beat Flamengo 2–0, however the ''Red-and-blacks'' were still able to clinch the [[2009 Campeonato Carioca|title]], the third in a row. In that same year Flamengo won the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] for the sixth time, after 17 years. Meanwhile, in the second tier, Vasco got promoted winning the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Série B]] title easily.

In the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Brasileirão]], Flamengo fought to avoid relegation until the end and finished 14th. The recently promoted Vasco side had a slightly better season, finishing 11th. Both derbies in the Campeonatio Brasileiro Serie A ended in draws, 0–0 and 1–1.

In the 2011 season, both clubs had better performances. The year started better for the ''Vultures'', as they beat Vasco in the Taça Rio final after a penalty shootout and won their [[2011 Campeonato Carioca|32nd Campeonato Carioca title]], since they had already won the Taça Guanabara that season. After being undefeated state champions, Flamengo's defeatless run ended when they lost 2–1 to [[Ceará Sporting Club|Ceará]] in the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals and were eliminated. After that, Flamengo suffered a setback, which pushed Flamengo out of the [[2011 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] title run. Vasco however, had a better season overall, as they won their first [[2011 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]] title, defeating [[Coritiba Foot Ball Club|Coritiba]] in the finals. The ''Giant'' also fought for the Série A title until the end, but finished in second place, 2 points behind [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], after a 1–1 draw in the ''Clássico dos Milhões'' on the final round.

=== 2013–present ===

==== Vasco's dark times and a new light for Flamengo ====
Flamengo started 2013 with a new president, Eduardo Bandeira de Mello, which was elected for a 3-year tenure, with the goal of paying up all the club's debts, which at the time were close in to 1 billion [[Brazilian real|Reais]]. Despite having a mediocre campaign in the [[2013 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2013 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Flamengo managed to achieve their third [[2013 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]] title, beating the [[Club Athletico Paranaense|Athletico Paranaense]] in the finals, [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]] in the Round of 16, and their other city rivals [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] in the quarter-finals, three teams that ended in the top 4 of the championship of that year.

In the other side of town, Vasco, after a good 2012 season, was relegated once again in [[2013 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2013]]. All the [[2011 Copa do Brasil|2011 Cup]] winning squad was out of the team, that ended up descending to Série B after a 5–1 defeat in the final round against Athletico Paranaense. Vasco managed to win two consecutive Carioca titles, in [[2015 Campeonato Carioca|2015]] and [[2016 Campeonato Carioca|2016]], however, the ''Giant'' was relegated one more time to Série B in [[2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2015]], just after being promoted in [[2014 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|2014]].

In [[2015 Copa do Brasil|2015]], Flamengo and Vasco clashed in the [[Copa do Brasil]] for the second time in the derby's history, this time in the Round of 16. Vasco won the first leg 1–0 and drew the second 1–1, with a late equaliser from [[Rafael Silva (footballer, born 1990)|Rafael Silva]]. Despite being relegated that year, Vasco still managed to defeat their rivals in a knock-out stage of a national tournament for the first time.

Returning to the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|first division]] in [[2017 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2017]], Vasco managed to make a good campaign in the Campeonato Brasileiro and was qualified for the [[2018 Copa Libertadores]], after finishing in 7th place. However, the ''Admiral'' made mediocre campaigns in the national league in the following years, and ended up being relegated for the fourth time in [[2020 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2020]]. In [[2021 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|2021]], Vasco did not managed to be promoted to Série A for the first time, as in previous participations in the Série B, the club achieved its promotion right away. In [[2022 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|2022]], the ''Giant'' was able to return to the first division, finishing 4th in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Série B]].

In Flamengo's side, after the [[2013 Copa do Brasil]] title, the club was consistently increasing its squad and performance in the following years. After paying a significant amount of their debts, the ''Vultures'' were having a surplus of money for the first time in decades, Flamengo started to bring in new stars for the team and after three years fighting for the top spots in the Brasileirão, they managed to win the [[Copa Libertadores]] for second time in the club's history, in 2019. Flamengo also won the Campeonato Brasileiro two times, in [[2019 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2019]] and [[2020 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2020]], the Copa do Brasil in [[2022 Copa do Brasil|2022]], and the [[Copa Libertadores]] once more in [[2022 Copa Libertadores|2022]], crowning a new golden era for the ''scarlet-blacks''.

As a result of this recent disparity between the two teams, Flamengo managed to set a record streak of 17 unbeaten matches in the derby from 2016 to 2021, increasing its edge in head to head results.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-chega-a-17-jogos-de-invencibilidade-no-classico-contra-o-Vasco-20210205-0003.html|title=Flamengo chega a 17 jogos de invencibilidade no clássico contra o Vasco|trans-title=Flamengo sets a 17 matches unbeaten streak in the derby against Vasco|website=TNT Sports|language=Pt-Br|date=5 February 2021|access-date=13 February 2024}}</ref>

=== Other notable matches ===
* 1975 – 3rd ''turno'' – Vasco 3–2 Flamengo – This game arguably triggered Vasco's most enduring reputation, dubbed "o time da virada" (i.e., the comeback team), after its never-say-die attitude which led to many remounting scores (others may say never-win-easy instead). After this win (after trailing 0–2, a remounting that never occurred again between the two clubs), Vasco would win a series of derbies by remounting to clinch the ''turno'', and the press labeled "Vascão vira-vira" (meaning roughly ''Vascão'' bottom-up). Since then, its supporters incorporated this feature in their song "the team of the comebacks". An epic 4–3 away win over Palmeiras in [[Mercosur Cup]] finals in 2001 after trailing 0–3, among others less notable in-between, recently sustained this reputation.
* 2000 – Taça Guanabara – Vasco 5–1 Flamengo – Nicknamed by Vasco supporters as "o chocolate da Páscoa" (i.e., Easter chocolate, after the Rio's football slang "chocolate" for "thrash" and as the game was played on Easter). Vasco clinched the turn title.

The '''Derby Paulista''' ([[English language|English]]: Derby of São Paulo; ''Paulista'' is a [[gentilic]] for those born in [[São Paulo (state)|São Paulo state]]), also called simply '''Dérbi''',<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-09-03 |title=Palmeiras x Corinthians: quem venceu mais vezes o Dérbi? {{!}} Goal.com Brasil |url=https://www.goal.com/br/not%C3%ADcias/corinthians-x-palmeiras-quem-venceu-mais-vezes-o-derby/19mo3yn5ly87p1dlaqfbk7pn4t |access-date=2023-11-30 |website=www.goal.com |language=pt-BR}}</ref> is an [[association football]] match between [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]] and [[SE Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], two traditional football clubs in the [[São Paulo|city of São Paulo]]. It is the rivalry between two of the oldest football clubs still active in the city of São Paulo. The Dérbi Paulista is ranked among the ten greatest derbies in the world.<ref>[http://edition.cnn.com/2009/SPORT/football/09/21/first11.derbies.manchester/index.html "Football First 11: Do or die derbies"].

It is one of the biggest rivalries in world football: [[CNN]] considers it the ninth greatest derby in the world, the second in the Americas and the only one in Brazil to be among the main world rivalries.<ref>[http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Futebol/0,,MUL833711-9825,00-CNN+COLOCA+CLASSICO+PALMEIRAS+X+TIMAO+ENTRE+OS+DEZ+MAIORES+DO+MUNDO.html "CNN coloca clássico Palmeiras x Timão entre os dez maiores do mundo"] ''Globo Esporte'', 23/10/2008</ref> The Football Derbies website has placed The Paulista Derby as the 4th biggest rivalry in the world (and the first in Brazil), now ranked 8th in its world ranking,<ref>[http://www.footballderbies.com/ "FootballDerbies.com"]</ref> while the Brazilian magazine Trivela ranked it as the second biggest one in Brazil, behind the [[Grenal]].<ref>"Te odeio, logo existo", Gustavo Hofman, ''Trivela'' número 32, outubro de 2008, Trivela Comunicações, pág. 36</ref> Corinthians and Palmeiras have already decided state ([[Campeonato Paulista]]), regional ([[Torneio Rio-São Paulo]]) and national ([[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]]) level championships, plus a [[Copa Libertadores]] semi-finals and quarter-finals.

The rivalry between fans of the two clubs is also the biggest among the big fans in the state of São Paulo. A [[Datafolha]] survey in 2010 showed that 59% of Corinthians fans consider Palmeiras their biggest rival, while 77% of Palmeiras fans in the city consider Corinthians their biggest rival.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www1.folha.uol.com.br/esporte/791753-para-59-dos-corintianos-palmeiras-e-o-adversario-mais-importante.shtml|title=Para 59% dos corintianos, Palmeiras é o adversário mais importante|website=Folha de S.

==The beginning of the rivalry - 1910s and 1920s==

Corinthians was founded in 1910, associated with the lower classes of São Paulo society. Its name was inspired by [[Corinthian FC]], from [[London]], which was on a tour in Brazil at the time.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|url=http://vejasp.abril.com.br/revista/edicao-2163a/corinthians-como-tudo-comecou|title=Corinthians: como tudo começou|website=Veja São Paulo|date=5 May 2010|access-date=5 July 2024}}</ref> Palmeiras was founded in 1914, as the representative of the huge Italian community of São Paulo, with the name Palestra Italia. Their current name, Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras, was adopted in 1942, during the [[Second World War]], by an order of the government.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.palmeiras.com.br/pt-br/noticias/o-verdadeiro-nome-do-palestra/ |title= O verdadeiro nome do Palestra | publisher = Palmeiras | date = 9 December 2011|access-date=5 July 2024}}</ref>

The first match between Palestra Itália and Corinthians, on May 6, 1917, ended in a 3–0 win for the ''palestrinos'', with three goals scored by the striker Caetano. Two-time champions of the LPF [[Campeonato Paulista]], in [[1914 Campeonato Paulista|1914]] and in [[1916 Campeonato Paulista|1916]], Corinthians had been unbeaten in 25 games for three years. That afternoon, at the Palestra Itália Stadium, Corinthians' streak was ended by the then newcomer, Palestra, which would become their bitterest rivals.<ref name="DERBY100ANOSESTADAO" />
[[File:Derby Paulista (Corinthians-Palmeiras) Paulistão 2009.jpg|200px|thumb|right|A ''Dérbi Paulista'' played in [[Presidente Prudente]], in 2009]]
The third match between the two teams was on March 17, 1918. On the day of the game, the players of Palestra Itália passed in front of a pension where the Corinthians players were having lunch. The ''palestrinos'' took an ox bone, wrote "Corinthians is chicken soup for Palestra" on it and shot it the refectory. During their match, Palestra took the lead twice, but Corinthians managed to tie the game, which ended 3–3. Since then, Corinthians keeps the bone in their trophy cabinet.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://globoesporte.globo.com/platb/memoriaec/tag/corinthians-x-palmeiras/|title=Corinthians x Palmeiras: um derby com 92 anos de muita história|website=Globoesporte.com|date=5 May 2009|access-date=5 July 2024}}</ref>

The first Corinthians win in the derby was a 3–0 result, on May 3, 1919, with Américo, Garcia and Roverso scoring at the Estádio da Floresta.

In 1921, Corinthians, Palestra Itália and [[Club Athletico Paulistano|Paulistano]], at the time the most winning team of the season, fought for the [[1921 Campeonato Paulista|state title]] until the final rounds. In the last round, however, only Corinthians and Paulistano could ended up being the champions. Paulistano beat Sírio 3–2, reached 39 points and took the lead in the competition. Corinthians, with 38 points, had to face Palestra, with 36 points, in the last match of the championship. At that period of football, a win was worth two points, therefore, Corinthians would be the champion in case of a victory. Palestra and Corinthians played on Christmas, at the recently built [[Estádio Palestra Itália|Parque Antarctica]], in a match that ended in a 3–0 win for the ''palestrinos'' and gave the title to Paulistano. This match is considered by many the one that consolidated their rivalry.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www1.folha.uol.com.br/esporte/1015362-no-natal-de-1921-palmeiras-tirou-titulo-do-corinthians.shtml|title=No Natal de 1921, Palmeiras tirou título do Corinthians|website=Folha de S.

In 1929, when the [[1929 Campeonato Paulista|Campeonato Paulista]] was organized by two different associations and Corinthians was champion by APEA, the most traditional of them. In the last round, the ''alvinegro'' took advantage of the fact that the ''palestrinos'' were playing with only ten players, as Heitor was injured during the match, to win the derby 4–1. This victory was worth the title of the competition, which had Santos as runner-up.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/noticia/2010/08/centenario-do-corinthians-decada-a-decada/anos-1920-o-mosqueteiro-e-tri-e-compra-o-parque-sao-jorge.html|title=Anos 1920: O Mosquiteiro é tri e compra o Parque São Jorge|website=Gazeta Esportiva|date=24 August 2010|access-date=5 July 2024}}</ref>

Palestra Itália's largest win in the history of the derby was on November 5, 1933, in a match played at the Palestra Itália Stadium, which was valid simultaneously for the [[1933 Campeonato Paulista|Campeonato Paulista]] and the [[1933 Torneio Rio-São Paulo|Rio-São Paulo Tournament of that year.]] With four goals by [[Romeu Pellicciari]], one by Gabardo and three by Imparato, the ''alviverde'' defeated the ''alvinegro'' by a resounding 8–0, the biggest defeat in Corinthians' history.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://globoesporte.globo.com/futebol/times/palmeiras/noticia/2013/11/recordar-e-viver-ha-80-anos-palestra-italia-humilhava-o-corinthians-8-0.html|title=Recordar é viver: há 80 anos, Palestra Itália humilhava o Corinthians: 8 a 0|website=GloboEsporte.com|date=5 November 2013|access-date=5 July 2024}}</ref> The impact of the thrashing was so huge to Corinthians that it overthrew the then president of club, Alfredo Schurig and caused some Corinthians fans to set fire to the headquarters of the club.<ref>{{Cite web|date=5 November 2013 |title=Há 80 anos, 8 x 0 do Palestra sobre Corinthians derrubou presidente |url=http://placar.abril.com.br/blogs/colecao-placar/2013/11/05/ha-80-anos-8-x-0-do-palestra-sobre-corinthians-derrubou-presidente |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131108080416/http://placar.abril.com.br/blogs/colecao-placar/2013/11/05/ha-80-anos-8-x-0-do-palestra-sobre-corinthians-derrubou-presidente/ |archive-date=8 November 2013 |access-date=5 July 2024 |website=Placar}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.lancenet.com.br/minuto/Palmeiras-Corinthians-Palestra_Italia_0_1024097612.html|title=Palmeiras celebra 80 anos da maior goleada aplicada no Corinthians: 8 a 0|website=Lance.net|date=5 November 2013|access-date=5 July 2024}}</ref>

In the [[1936 Campeonato Paulista]], Corinthians and Palestra Itália made their first final in the history of the derby, as the ''alvinegro'' had won the first phase unbeaten and ''alviverde'' had won the second phase. The three games were played between April and May 1937. In the first match, at the Palestra Itália Stadium, the ''palestrinos'' won 1–0, with Corinthians leaving the field on the 31st minute of the second half, complaining of a foul on their goalkeeper. The second game, at Parque São Jorge, ended in a 0–0 draw. In the third match, at the Palestra Itália Stadium, Palestra won the final 2–1 and took the title.

[[File:Corinthians x Palestra Itália 1938.jpg|220px|thumb|right|A ''Dérbi'' played at the Parque São Jorge in 1938]]

An unusual fact in the history of the Derby Paulista happened in 1938, that involved [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo FC]] and also the [[Associação Portuguesa de Desportos|Portuguesa]]. In early July of that year, just after the [[1938 FIFA World Cup|1938 World Cup]], a financial crisis made São Paulo create a friendly tournament, called Taça Mündell Júnior, in order to raise money to solve part of their problems. On the occasion, Corinthians and Palmeiras played a match, which was known as the “Jogo das Barricas” ("The barrels' match"). The game ended in a 0–0 draw and the black and white of Parque São Jorge classified due to a highest number of corners. In the final, Corinthians defeated [[Associação Portuguesa de Desportos|Portuguesa]], which eliminated São Paulo in the semifinals. After the tournament, the ''[[São Paulo FC|tricolor]]'' rose in the following months and was runner-up of the Campeonato Paulista of that year, also won by Corinthians.<ref>{{Cite web |date=29 April 2014 |title=Em 1938, São Paulo fez um apelo aos rivais a fim de diminuir crise financeira |url=http://www.estadao.com.br/noticias/esportes,em-1938-sao-paulo-fez-um-apelo-aos-rivais-a-fim-de-diminuir-crise-financeira,1160322,0.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160306143919/http://esportes.estadao.com.br/noticias/futebol,em-1938-sao-paulo-fez-um-apelo-aos-rivais-a-fim-de-diminuir-crise-financeira,1160322 |archive-date=6 March 2016 |access-date=5 July 2024 |website=O Estado de S. Paulo}}</ref>

In 1938, the [[1938 Campeonato Paulista|Campeonato Paulista]] was paralyzed in April for the World Cup that year. As a way to keep the football teams in the state active in an official competition, APEA created the II Campeonato Paulista Extra — the first edition was in 1926 — which ended up being decided between Palestra Itália and Corinthians. The first game of the finals, on the 21st of August, ended 0–0. In the last and decisive match, on the 18th of September, Palestra Itália won 2–1, clinching their second title of the competition, in its second edition.<ref name="DERBY100ANOSESTADAO" />

==Rivalry in the 1940s==
In 1940, the newly built [[Pacaembu Stadium]] — at the time, the biggest stadium in São Paulo — had its first champion being crowned after a decisive Derby Paulista.

In the period of greatest turmoil in the history of Palestra Itália, during the [[World War II|Second World War]], when the club was forced to change its name due to the laws of the [[Vargas Era|Vargas Dictatorship]] against associations that made references to the countries of the [[Axis powers|Axis]],<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 September 2012 |title=Tensão, nacionalismo e rivalidade: conheça o nascimento do Palmeiras |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/noticia/2012/09/palmeiras/tensao-nacionalismo-e-rivalidade-conheca-o-nascimento-do-palmeiras.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150606140314/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/noticia/2012/09/palmeiras/tensao-nacionalismo-e-rivalidade-conheca-o-nascimento-do-palmeiras.html |archive-date=6 June 2015 |access-date=8 July 2024 |website=Gazeta Esportiva}}</ref> Corinthians was constantly victorious in the derbies.

After Palmeiras won its first title in their first game with their current name, defeating São Paulo and winning the 1942 Campeonato Paulista, in a match that became known as the "[[Arrancada Heroica]]", they still had to face Corinthians in the last round of the championship. The ''alvinegros'' took revenge of their 2–0 loss in the Derby in the last round of the [[1941 Campeonato Paulista|previous year championship]], that took away a possible undefeated title from them, as this time it was Corinthians who prevented Palmeiras from being crowned undefeated champions, by beating their rivals 3–1, on October 4, in the first Derby Paulista with the ''alviverdes''' current name.<ref>{{cite book |author1= Celso Dario Ulzete|author2= Mário Sérgio Venditti|date= 2004 |title= Almanaque do Palmeiras|language= pt-br|publisher=Editora Abril|page=88}}</ref>

Palmeiras' first win in the Derby under its new name came only in May 23, 1943, in the first round of the [[1943 Campeonato Paulista]]. The ''alviverde'' beat ''alvinegro'' 2–0, with two goals from midfielder Lima and an attendance of 63,344 people at the Pacaembu.<ref>{{cite book |author1= Celso Dario Ulzete|author2= Mário Sérgio Venditti|date= 2004 |title= Almanaque do Palmeiras|language= pt-br|publisher=Editora Abril|page=89}}</ref>

[[File:Ademir da Guia.JPG|220px|thumb|left|[[Ademir da Guia]], considered the greatest player in the history of Palmeiras.]]

The derby on January 18, 1953, was the match with most total goals in the history of the ''Dérbi Paulista''. Corinthians defeated Palmeiras 6–4 in a [[1953 Campeonato Paulista|Campeonato Paulista]] match at the Pacaembu Stadium. Cláudio, the all-time top scorer of the ''Dérbi'', scored a hat-trick in that game, that was also the one in which the ''alvinegros'' scored more goals against their rivals.

In the penultimate round of the 1954 Campeonato Paulista, a very decisive Dérbi Paulista was played at the Pacaembu. On February 6, 1955, a draw would be enough for Corinthians to win the championship, meanwhile Palmeiras, which were in 2nd, needed to win the derby and hope for another Corinthians defeat in the last round, against São Paulo. In addition to that, this match was part of the celebrations for the 400th anniversary of the city of São Paulo. The ''alvinegros'' scored first with a gol from Luizinho in 10th minute. Palmeiras, which were playing with blue shirts, equalized the score with a Nei goal in the 52nd minute. After that, Corinthians managed to held the 1–1 tie and took the title. After that, however, Corinthians would only win the Campeonato Paulista again 22 years later, in 1977.<ref name=":0" />

The derby played at the [[Estádio do Morumbi|Morumbi Stadium]] on April 25, 1971, for Campeonato Paulista, was considered one of the greatest and most exciting chapters in the history of the ''Dérbi Paulista''. Corinthians, which were harshly criticized due to their long time without winning any title and their poor start in the championship, were up against a strong Palmeiras side, with [[Émerson Leão|Leão]], [[Luís Pereira]], [[Dudu (footballer, born 1939)|Dudu]] and [[Ademir da Guia]]. With two goals from [[César Maluco]], the ''alviverdes'' were leading 2–0 at the half-time. In the second half, however, Corinthians came back stronger, tying the game in the 69th minute, but only one minute later, [[Leivinha]] put Palmeiras ahead once again. However, Tião equalized for Corinthians again in the 72nd minute and in the 87th, Mirandinha scored a late winning goal for the ''alvinegros'', in a historic 4–3 win for Corinthians in the derby.

In the finals of the [[1974 Campeonato Paulista]], Palmeiras took revenge for the 1954 championship in a quite painful manner for the Corinthians' fans. The ''alvinegros'' had not won a Campeonato Paulista in 20 years, and were now comprising players like [[Rivellino]], [[Vaguinho (footballer, born 1950)|Vaguinho]] and [[Zé Maria (footballer, born 1949)|Zé Maria]], and also the overwhelming majority of the 120,522 fans that were at the Morumbi in the second leg. However, it was the ''alviverdes'', coached by [[Osvaldo Brandão]], who took the title. With a goal by Ronaldo, in the 69th minute, the ''Verdão'' won the derby and its 17th state title. At the end of the match, the supporters of Palmeiras at the stadium started chanting "It's 21", mocking their rivals for their 20 years streak without winning any trophy, which after those finals, extended to 21.<ref>{{Cite web |date=30 November 2011 |title=Relembre uma final histórica entre Corinthians e Palmeiras" |url=http://esportes.r7.com/futebol/noticias/relembre-uma-final-historica-entre-corinthians-e-palmeiras-20111130.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304050137/http://esportes.r7.com/futebol/noticias/relembre-uma-final-historica-entre-corinthians-e-palmeiras-20111130.html |archive-date=4 March 2016 |website=R7 Esportes}}</ref>

In the [[1979 Campeonato Paulista]], Palmeiras was led by coach [[Telê Santana]] and were appointed as the favorites to win the championship, sp due to the good campaign in the first phase. A backstage maneuver by then-president of Corinthians, Vicente Matheus, changed the date of the ''Dérbi'' in the semifinal to January 1980. During the first phase of the championship, he used a right that ended up interrupting the championship for 4 months. The Corinthians president refused to play the match against [[Associação Atlética Ponte Preta|Ponte Preta]], in the first phase, as a ''rodada dupla'' (double round) was scheduled, and Matheus said that Corinthians would end up harmed in the revenue division (as happened in 1977 and 1978, in which, according to the rules of the championship, the revenue obtained by the clubs was also considered alongside their points in the two previous rounds, in the classification criteria). In fact, there was no ''rodada dupla'' and the championship was paralyzed, making the intervention a strategy for Corinthians in order to cool down their rivals' momentum. It worked, as Palmeiras conceded a 1–1 draw to the ''alvinegros'' in the 85th minute of the first match. In the second leg, played on January 30, [[Biro-Biro (footballer, born 1959)|Biro-Biro]] scored the winning goal for Corinthians with his shin, thus eliminating Palmeiras and paving the way to ''Timão's'' title in that year.<ref>{{Cite web |date=5 February 2013 |title=Em 1979, interrupção do Paulistão barrou ímpeto palmeirense e ajudou o Corinthians |url=http://almanaquedabola.com.br/futebol-brasileiro/2013/01/05/em-1979-interrupcao-do-paulistao-barrou-o-impeto-palmeirense-e-levou-o-corinthians-ao-titulo/ |website=Almanaque da Bola}}{{dead link|date=May 2024}}</ref>

==The Derby in the 1980s and 1990s==
In 1982, during Palmeiras' long streak without winning any titles and the height of the [[Corinthians Democracy]], the ''alvinegros'' defeated their rivals by the largest goal different in their history in the fixture.

On June 12, 1993, Corinthians and Palmeiras made another decisive match that involved a lengthy title drought, this time for Palmeiras, wich ended this long negative streak commanded by coach [[Vanderlei Luxemburgo]]. According to the rules of the [[1993 Campeonato Paulista|Campeonato Paulista]] of that year, Palmeiras, who had the best campaign in the first phase, needed to win the second leg of the final in order to take the match to extra time.

In the second match that marked the centenary year, Corinthians defeated Palmeiras once again, this time 2-0 and at Allianz Parque, for the first round of the 2017 Brazilian Championship, with goals from Jadson and Guilherme Arana. As in 2016, when Palmeiras had won the three games of the year in the classic, Corinthians closed the treble of victories over the biggest rival in the second round of the Brazilian Championship, in a game played on November 5. With goals from Romero, Balbuena and Jô, the black-and-whites won the derby by 3–2, as Mina and Moisés scored for ''Porco'', in a game that set the record for the most club appearances in the Corinthians Arena.

In 2018, after 19 years, Corinthians and Palmeiras again decided on a championship final, in this case, that of the 2018 Paulista Championship. In the first match, played at Arena Corinthians, in a highly disputed game, Palmeiras won 1–0, with a goal by striker Miguel Borja, breaking a sequence of four consecutive Corinthians victories in the previous four Derby matches. In the second game held at Allianz Parque, Corinthians made the change, winning the match 1–0, with a Rodriguinho goal. With the result, the decision went to penalties, with another victory by ''Timão'', by 4–3. Thus, Corinthians won its twenty-ninth São Paulo title at their rivals stadium. The final at Allianz Parque was also marked by controversial decisions by the referee Marcelo Aparecido Ribeiro de Souza, who canceled a penalty for Palmeiras, at the second half. The game was paralyzed for 8 minutes, with turmoil provoked by players from both teams. After the end of the match, Palmeiras reported the breach with the São Paulo Football Federation, claiming that the referee's decision was changed by external interference, a procedure not authorized by FIFA, and conditioning the end of the breach with the adoption of more transparent practices by the entity in relation to refereeing, such as the implementation of the [[Video assistant referee|VAR]]. The outrage with the referee and the loss of the title to the biggest rival also hit the crowd, as equipment and subway trains at [[Palmeiras-Barra Funda Intermodal Terminal|Barra Funda Station]], were destroyed by members of ''[[Torcida organizada|"Torcidas Organizadas"]]'' of Palmeiras.

In 2020, during the [[COVID-19]] [[pandemic]], Palmeiras beat its arch-rival Corinthians in a historic final of the Campeonato Paulista. In the first decision in the history of the competition without an audience at the stadium, After two drawn matches, Palmeiras won the finals in the penalty shootout.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas-noticias/2020/08/08/palmeiras-x-corinthians.htm|title=Com drama, Palmeiras vence o Corinthians nos pênaltis e é campeão paulista|publisher=UOL|language=Portuguese|date=8 August 2020|access-date=22 September 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200927103751/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas-noticias/2020/08/08/palmeiras-x-corinthians.htm|archive-date=27 September 2020|url-status=dead|df=mdy-all}}</ref>

The '''Clássico Mineiro''' (English: Derby of [[Minas Gerais]]; ''Mineiro'' is a [[gentilic]] for those born in Minas Gerais) is the [[List of association football rivalries|football derby]] between [[Clube Atlético Mineiro|Atlético Mineiro]] and [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], both teams from [[Belo Horizonte]], Minas Gerais, Brazil. It is one of the fiercest rivalries in Brazilian and South American football.<ref name=":1" />

The two clubs practically monopolize the [[Campeonato Mineiro]], and have clashed in decisive matches in the [[Brasileirão]], [[Copa do Brasil]] and continental [[CONMEBOL]] competitions of.

==History==
[[Clube Atlético Mineiro|Atlético]] was founded in the early years of the 20th Century, on March 25, 1908. [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]] was founded 13 years later, on January 2, 1921, among the [[Belo Horizonte]]'s Italian community, as ''Palestra Itália''. In 1942, due to the enmity between Brazil and Italy in the [[World War II]], Palestra had to change its name to Cruzeiro.

The first derby took place on April 17, 1921, with Palestra winning 3–0. The first official match between the two was a 2–1 Atlético win, on May 15, 1921.

Atlético Mineiro's largest win in the history of the ''Clássico'' was on November 27, 1927, in a [[Campeonato Mineiro]] match. ''[[Clube Atlético Mineiro|Galo]]'', which was undefeated that season, thrashed Palestra Itália [[Atlético Mineiro 9–2 Cruzeiro (1927)|9–2]] and secured its third Championship title.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ge.globo.com/futebol/times/atletico-mg/noticia/90-anos-do-9-a-2-historias-e-registros-do-polemico-classico-que-sim-existiu.ghtml|title=90 anos do 9 a 2: histórias e registros do polêmico clássico que, sim, existiu|author=Guilherme Frossard|website=Globoesporte.com|date=November 27, 2017|access-date=January 21, 2024|language=pt-BR}}</ref>

In the 1931 [[Campeonato Mineiro]], both Atlético and Palestra finished the competition at the top of the table, tied on points. Thus, according to the rules of the championship, a [[Tiebreaker|tie-breaking final]] was necessary, the first one in the history of the fixture. On November 29, Atlético won the first leg 2–1 at [[Estádio Juscelino Kubitschek de Oliveira|Palestra's stadium]]. The second leg, which would take place on December 6 at [[Estádio Presidente Antônio Carlos|Atlético's stadium]], less than 1 mile away from their rival's, did not happen. Atlético had not hired a referee from [[Rio de Janeiro]], as it had been agreed, then gave a list to Palestra with three others from Minas Gerais, which the Italians refused. In addition to that, the preliminary match between their reserve teams had already ended in a fight. The Federation tried to reschedule the match, but Palestra Itália left the entity, which ended up proclaming ''Galo'' the champions. As a result of this conflict, in 1932, there were two different championships in Minas Gerais, organized by different associations.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hojeemdia.com.br/esportes/mineiro-em-1931-uma-final-inacabada-mudou-a-historia-do-classico-entre-atletico-x-cruzeiro-1.706757|title=Mineiro: em 1931, uma final inacabada mudou a história do clássico entre Atlético x Cruzeiro|last=Simões|first=Alexandre|website=Hoje em Dia|date=January 10, 2019|access-date=December 16, 2023|language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.rsssfbrasil.com/tablesfq/mg1931.htm|title=Minas Gerais 1931|last=Freati|first=Claudio|website=[[Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation]]|date=January 30, 2023|access-date=December 16, 2023}}</ref>

In the finals of the 1956 Campeonato Mineiro, after an 1–1 in the first match and a 0–0 in the second, Atlético won the third match 1–0 and won the championship for the fifth time in a row. However, before the last game, Cruzeiro claimed that Atlético had irregularly called in the player Laércio in the second match. Only in 1959, the Superior Court of Sport Justice (STJD) gave the points of the second match to Cruzeiro, legitimizing the club's claim. As the final was now tied and the clubs were against the idea of scheduling a fourth match, the [[Federação Mineira de Futebol|Federation]] proclaimed both Atlético and Cruzeiro the champions.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://cruzeiropedia.org/Campeonato_da_Cidade_1956#Sobre_a_divis%C3%A3o_do_t%C3%ADtulo|title=Campeonato da Cidade 1956|website=Cruzeirpédia|date=March 29, 2022|access-date=December 16, 2023|language=pt-BR}}</ref>

The first derby outside of [[Minas Gerais]] took place on June 16, 1960, in a friendly match at the Israel Pinheiro Stadium in [[Brasília]], Brazil's recentely founded capital. The clubs were invited to celebrate the peace between the two, by the president [[Juscelino Kubitschek]], born in Minas Gerais and a Cruzeiro fan.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://onefootball.com/pt-br/noticias/qual-o-time-dos-presidenciaveis-e-dos-antigos-presidentes-22363829|title=Qual o time dos presidenciáveis?

The [[Mineirão|Estádio Governardor Magalhães Pinto]], better known as ''Mineirão'', opened on September 5, 1965, and became the home ground of both teams for decades. The first derby at the stadium took place on October 24, 1965, for the Campeonato Mineiro. In the 79th minute of the match, when Cruzeiro was winning 1–0 with a goal from [[Tostão]], the referee Juan de La Passion Artéz rawarded a penalty to the ''[[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Raposa]]''. Atlético's players were outraged with the signaling and some of them fought with the referee and the police. ''Galo's'' coach and more nine players were sent off. The referee ended the match with a Cruzeiro win in the ''Clássico''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hojeemdia.com.br/esportes/ha-53-anos-com-gol-de-tost-o-cruzeiro-vencia-primeiro-classico-contra-o-galo-no-mineir-o-1.665393|title=Há 53 anos, com gol de Tostão, Cruzeiro vencia o primeiro clássico contra o Galo no Mineirão|last=André|first=Henrique|website=Hoje em Dia|date=October 23, 2018|access-date=December 16, 2023|language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.mg.superesportes.com.br/app/fotos/especiais/mineirao-50-anos/2015/09/11/galeria-mineirao50anos,7284/cruzeiro-1-x-0-atletico-24-10-1965.shtml|title=Cruzeiro 1 x 0 Atlético 24/10/1965|website=Superesportes|date=September 11, 2015|access-date=December 16, 2023|language=pt-BR}}</ref>

The beginning of the "[[Mineirão]] Era" coincided with a period of dominance by Cruzeiro. With a richly talented team comprising [[Raul Plassmann|Raul]], [[Wilson Piazza|Piazza]], [[Dirceu Lopes]], [[Natal (footballer)|Natal]] and [[Tostão]], the Foxes won the [[1966 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1966 Campeonato Brasileiro]] and five successive state titles from 1965 to 1969, as Atlético were the runners-up on each occasion.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web|url=http://www.fifa.com/classicfootball/news/newsid=111444.html|title=The Classic: Atletico-Cruzeiro|access-date=October 25, 2008|publisher=www.fifa.com|language=en|archive-date=October 20, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081020103136/http://www.fifa.com/classicfootball/news/newsid=111444.html|url-status=dead}}</ref>

The first [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] match between the two was a 4–0 win for Cruzeiro on March 5, [[1967 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A (Torneio Roberto Gomes Pedrosa)|1967]], with an attendance of 91,042 people at [[Mineirão]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://cruzeiropedia.org/Cruzeiro_4x0_Atl%C3%A9tico-MG_-_05/03/1967|title=Cruzeiro 4x0 Atlético-MG – 05/03/1967
|website=Cruzeiropédia|date=July 13, 2021|access-date=December 18, 2023|language=pt-BR}}</ref>

By the mid-70s and 80s, Atlético Mineiro established an impressive cast of players of their own, with [[João Leite (politician)|João Leite]], [[Luizinho (footballer, born 1958)|Luizinho]], [[Toninho Cerezo|Cerezo]], [[Paulo Isidoro]], [[Nelinho]], [[Éder Aleixo|Éder]] and [[Reinaldo (footballer, born 1957)|Reinaldo]] making them one of the most revered forces in Brazilian football. During this period, they consistently outstripped Cruzeiro in their matches and won the Campeonato Mineiro 11 times in 14 seasons along the way.<ref name=":1" />

In the quarterfinals of the [[1986 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1986 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Atlético and Cruzeiro faced each other for the first time in the knock-out stage of a national tournament.

The rivalry between the supporters of Atlético and Cruzeiro is very heated and can be seen in numerous provocative flags, [[Tifo|tifos]], chants and player celebrations towards the opposing side on derby days,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.lance.com.br/futebol-nacional/tem-que-brincar-rafael-silva-comenta-provocacao-classico.html|title=Rafael Silva minimiza provocação no clássico: 'Tem que brincar'|website=Lance|date=March 27, 2016|access-date=December 23, 2023|language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.metropoles.com/esportes/futebol/no-mineirao-atletico-mg-bate-cruzeiro-em-classico-de-provocacoes|title=No Mineirão, Atlético-MG bate Cruzeiro em clássico de provocações|website=Metrópoles|date=March 7, 2020|access-date=December 23, 2023|language=pt-BR}}</ref> in addition to some violent conflicts between groups of fans.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ge.globo.com/mg/futebol/noticia/2022/03/06/briga-generalizada-entre-torcedores-do-atletico-mg-e-cruzeiro-deixa-um-morto-em-bh.ghtml|title=Briga generalizada entre torcedores de Atlético-MG e Cruzeiro deixa um morto em BH

These names are a reference to the [[Lake Pampulha|Pampulha Lake]], next to the stadium.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ludopedio.org.br/arquibancada/em-qual-mineirao-voce-vai-hoje/|title=Em qual Mineirão você vai hoje?|website=Ludopédio|date=December 21, 2015|access-date=December 23, 2023|language=pt-BR}}</ref>

==Statistics==
Atlético Mineiro and Cruzeiro have their own different versions of the statistics of the fixture. From the first derby on April 17, 1921, to the mid-1940s, there was no practice of registering the data and results of the games in an official summary. Atlético counts all the times the teams went to the playing field and faced each other. Cruzeiro says it does not consider games in which one of them played with their [[reserve team]] ("time de aspirantes"). Interestingly, however, there are matches that entered Cruzeiro's accounts that do not appear in Atlético's records.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |date=October 22, 2023 |title=Cruzeiro x Atlético-MG: quem venceu mais vezes o clássico e quais são as polêmicas na contagem? {{!}} Goal.com Brasil |url=https://www.goal.com/br/not%C3%ADcias/cruzeiro-x-atletico-mg-quem-venceu-mais-vezes-o-classico-e-quais-sao-as-polemicas-na-contagem/o6rvcx8m9f1d1k400glznulem |access-date=2023-10-25 |website=www.goal.com |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Rodrigues |first=Rodolfo |title=Atlético e Cruzeiro divergem nas estatísticas, mas vantagem é do Galo |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/colunas/rodolfo-rodrigues/2021/04/11/atletico-e-cruzeiro-divergem-nas-estatisticas-mas-vantagem-e-do-galo.htm |access-date=2023-10-25 |website=www.uol.com.br |language=pt-br}}</ref>

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

Its [[Youth system|youth academy]], which has brought up [[List of Brazil international footballers|international footballers]] such as [[Romário]], [[Philippe Coutinho]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini]], [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edmundo (footballer)|Edmundo]], is well known for its socio-educational methodology.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-03-08 |title=De Coutinho a Andrey: Colégio Vasco da Gama completa 20 anos e recebe parabéns de formados no clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/futebol/times/vasco/noticia/2024/03/08/de-coutinho-a-andrey-colegio-vasco-da-gama-completa-20-anos-e-recebe-parabens-de-formados-no-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Due to its history of diversity and [[Mass mobilization|mobilization]], most notably exemplified by the ''Resposta Histórica'' (Historical Response) document and the [[crowdfunding]] to build the [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] in the 1920s, Vasco became a symbol of [[anti-racism]] and [[multiculturalism]], inspiring the club's motto of "''Respeito, igualdade, inclusão''" (Respect, equality, inclusion).<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 June 2022 |title=Carta aberta: respeito, igualdade, inclusão |trans-title=Open letter: respect, equality, inclusion |url=https://vasco.com.br/carta-aberta-respeito-igualdade-inclusao/ |access-date=13 March 2023 |website=Vasco.com}}</ref> However, Vasco's history has been a subject of controversy due to the club's own complex political and administrative disputes, which continues to reflect in the instability of the club's results.

At the national level, Vasco da Gama has won four [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], three [[Torneio Rio–São Paulo]] and one [[Copa do Brasil]]. In international club football, the club has won one [[Copa Libertadores]], one [[South American Championship of Champions]], and one [[Copa Mercosur]]. At the state level, the club has also won 24 [[Campeonato Carioca]]. The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil. After a few years, the racism barriers fell, and Vasco became known as "Clube de todas as raças" (Club of all races).<ref>{{Cite news |date=13 November 1998 |title=Vasco da Gama Redrew the Color Line in Brazil |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |access-date=28 March 2022 |newspaper=Washington Post |archive-date=28 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170828033951/https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |url-status=live }}</ref> The club had led the move toward a more inclusive football culture, forward-thinking not employed by leaders from other Rio-based clubs like Fluminense, Flamengo and Botafogo.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

Vasco immediately secured their return to Serie A, sealing promotion to the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Série A]] on 7 November 2009 with a 2–1 victory over [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] in front of a Serie B-record 81,000 fans at [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]], and finishing as Serie B champions as well.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2009 |title=Vasco põe 81 mil no Maracanã, bate Juventude e confirma volta |url=https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=Terra |language=pt-BR |archive-date=29 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220329044117/https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues. In the [[2013 Campeonato Carioca|Taca Rio]], the club had a terrible campaign and finished seventh of eight in the table. By the end of the year, the club had been relegated for the second time in 5 years and just the second time in their history, which was secured with a 5–1 defeat to [[Atletico paranaense|Atletico Paranaense]] on the final matchday.<ref>{{Cite web |date=8 December 2013 |title=Em jogo da vergonha nas arquibancadas, Atlético-PR goleia, vai à Libertadores, e Vasco cai outra vez após cinco anos |url=http://espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=ESPN |language=pt |archive-date=22 January 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140122144501/http://www.espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |url-status=live }}</ref> In the [[2013 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]] the team entered in the round of 16, beating [[Nacional Futebol Clube|Nacional]] and then being eliminated by [[Goiás Esporte Clube|Goiás]] on away goals, despite winning the second leg 3–2.

After one season in the [[2014 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Série B during 2014]], Vasco gained promotion and in May 2015 won the [[2015 Campeonato Carioca|Campeonato Carioca]] after a 12-year hiatus. However, they were relegated again in the [[2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A|2015 edition]], placing eighteenth. In [[2016 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|2016]], Vasco became back-to-back [[2016 Campeonato Carioca|Carioca champions]] and had a 34-match unbeaten streak, their longest in official games.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |last2= |date=2016-06-11 |title=Defesa falha, Vasco cai diante do Atlético-GO e perde invencibilidade |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/futebol/brasileirao-serie-b/noticia/2016/06/defesa-falha-vasco-cai-diante-do-atletico-go-e-perde-invencibilidade.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref> Once again, they were promoted after one season in Série B.

==== 2022: Takeover by 777 Partners and return to Série A ====
On 22 February 2022 it was announced that [[:en:777 Partners|777 Partners]], a Miami-based private investment firm founded by Steven W. Pasko and Josh Wander, bought a controlling stake in Vasco da Gama. According to the terms of the deal, 777 Partners acquired a 70% stake in the club which was valued at approximately $330 million.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-02-22 |title=777 Partners agrees US$137m takeover of Vasco da Gama |url=https://www.sportspromedia.com/news/vasco-da-gama-777-partners-takeover-investment/ |access-date=2022-02-28 |website=SportsPro |language=en-GB}}</ref>

On 6 November 2022, Vasco sealed their return to Série A, after a two-year absence.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the Cross patteé, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

From July 2009, after breaking the partnership with Champs,<ref name="ChampsBreakup">{{cite web | title = Vasco rescinde contrato com a Champs | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 23 May 2009 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090523214217/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> to 2013, the official jerseys were produced by Penalty.<ref name="PenaltyAgreement">{{cite web | title = Clube acerta com a Penalty e vai receber R$ 64 milhões em cinco anos | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 17 October 2015 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20151017032946/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> Since 2020, the kits are made by [[Kappa (brand)]].{{Citation needed|date=January 2023}}

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first Brazilian team (club or national team) to win a international tournament and the first club in the world to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

Its [[Youth system|youth academy]], which has brought up [[List of Brazil international footballers|international footballers]] such as [[Romário]], [[Philippe Coutinho]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini]], [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edmundo (footballer)|Edmundo]], is well known for its socio-educational methodology.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-03-08 |title=De Coutinho a Andrey: Colégio Vasco da Gama completa 20 anos e recebe parabéns de formados no clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/futebol/times/vasco/noticia/2024/03/08/de-coutinho-a-andrey-colegio-vasco-da-gama-completa-20-anos-e-recebe-parabens-de-formados-no-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Due to its history of diversity and [[Mass mobilization|mobilization]], most notably exemplified by the ''Resposta Histórica'' (Historical Response) document and the [[crowdfunding]] to build the [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] in the 1920s, Vasco became a symbol of [[anti-racism]] and [[multiculturalism]], inspiring the club's motto of "''Respeito, igualdade, inclusão''" (Respect, equality, inclusion).<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 June 2022 |title=Carta aberta: respeito, igualdade, inclusão |trans-title=Open letter: respect, equality, inclusion |url=https://vasco.com.br/carta-aberta-respeito-igualdade-inclusao/ |access-date=13 March 2023 |website=Vasco.com}}</ref> However, Vasco's history has been a subject of controversy due to the club's own complex political and administrative disputes, which continues to reflect in the instability of the club's results.

At the national level, Vasco da Gama has won four [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], three [[Torneio Rio–São Paulo]] and one [[Copa do Brasil]]. In international club football, the club has won one [[Copa Libertadores]], one [[South American Championship of Champions]], and one [[Copa Mercosur]]. At the state level, the club has also won 24 [[Campeonato Carioca]]. The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil.

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

However, they were relegated again in the [[2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A|2015 edition]], placing eighteenth.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the Cross patteé, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first Brazilian team (club or national team) to win a international tournament and the first club in the world to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

The first FIFA Club World Championship took place in Brazil in [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship|2000]]. but the failure of ISL caused FIFA to discontinue the tournament and cancel the following year competition to be held in Spain. This first failed installment ran parallel with the [[Intercontinental Cup (football)|Intercontinental Cup]] (also known as European/South American Cup), a competition organized jointly by the [[UEFA|Union of European Football Associations]] (UEFA) and the [[CONMEBOL|Confederación Sudamericana de Fútbol]] (CONMEBOL) first disputed in 1960 by the winners of the European Champions Cup and the Copa Libertadores. FIFA finally managed to buy the prestigious Japanese Event and in 2005, after the Intercontinental Cup's [[2004 Intercontinental Cup|last edition]], that competition was merged with FIFA. The failed [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship|FIFA Club World Cup's first edition]] was renamed as "FIFA Club World Championship" and a new Trophy replaced the Intercontinental Cup Trophy as well as the Toyota Cup. In 2006, the tournament took its current name.

The current format of the tournament involves seven teams competing for the title at venues within the host nation over a period of about two weeks; the winners of that year's [[AFC Champions League]] ([[Asian Football Confederation|Asia]]), [[CAF Champions League]] ([[Confederation of African Football|Africa]]), [[CONCACAF Champions League]] ([[CONCACAF|North America]]), [[Copa Libertadores]] ([[CONMEBOL|South America]]), [[OFC Champions League]] ([[Oceania Football Confederation|Oceania]]) and [[UEFA Champions League]] ([[UEFA|Europe]]), along with the host nation's national champions, participate in a straight [[Single-elimination tournament|knock-out tournament]]. The host nation's national champions dispute a play-off against the Oceania champions, from which the winner joins the champions of Asia, Africa, and North America at the quarter-finals. The quarter-final winners go on to face the European and South American champions, who enter the semi-final stage, for a place in the final. In Europe the tournament is almost ignored by the mass media, also because of its sporting level, considered inferior to the Intercontinental Cup,<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/timvickery/2008/12/one_of_my_regrets_is.html|title=The prestige of the Club World Cup|author=Tim Vickery|date=15 December 2008|access-date=24 December 2015|publisher=[[BBC]]}}</ref> indeed when the sides used to meet in a one-off game in Japan (and even before), this was still a fair fight.

Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

Due to its history of diversity and [[Mass mobilization|mobilization]], most notably exemplified by the ''Resposta Histórica'' (Historical Response) document and the [[crowdfunding]] to build the [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] in the 1920s, Vasco became a symbol of [[anti-racism]] and [[multiculturalism]], inspiring the club's motto of "''Respeito, igualdade, inclusão''" (Respect, equality, inclusion).<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 June 2022 |title=Carta aberta: respeito, igualdade, inclusão |trans-title=Open letter: respect, equality, inclusion |url=https://vasco.com.br/carta-aberta-respeito-igualdade-inclusao/ |access-date=13 March 2023 |website=Vasco.com}}</ref> However, Vasco's history has been a subject of controversy due to the club's own complex political and administrative disputes, which continues to reflect in the instability of the club's results.

At the national level, Vasco da Gama has won four [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], three [[Torneio Rio–São Paulo]] and one [[Copa do Brasil]]. In international club football, the club has won one [[Copa Libertadores]], one [[South American Championship of Champions]], and one [[Copa Mercosur]]. At the state level, the club has also won 24 [[Campeonato Carioca]]. The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil.

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

On 21 April 1927, Vasco's Stadium was inaugurated with a match against [[Santos FC|Santos]]. Santos won the match 5–3.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Históry 1924-1943|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=NetVasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030924200653/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor2.html |archive-date=24 September 2003 }}</ref> On 26 April 1931, Vasco had a historic 7–0 victory over rivals Flamengo; this is the largest victory margin between the two clubs in the amateur era.

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

A win on the last matchday would've given them the title, as Corinthians drew their match, but Flamengo held Vasco to a draw. The club also ended the year as semifinalists in the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana|Copa Sudamericana]], a competition that saw the club defeat [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], [[Club Aurora|Aurora]] and [[Club Universitario de Deportes|Universitario]] in historic fashion before being eliminated by eventual champion [[Club Universidad de Chile|Universidad de Chile]] on away goals. The season was dubbed as ''"Vasco's Redemption Year"'', with many lauding Vasco as one of [[Football in Brazil|Brazilian football]]'s elite teams once again.

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues. In the [[2013 Campeonato Carioca|Taca Rio]], the club had a terrible campaign and finished seventh of eight in the table.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the Cross patteé, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first Brazilian team (club or national team) to win a international and continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

Its [[Youth system|youth academy]], which has brought up [[List of Brazil international footballers|international footballers]] such as [[Romário]], [[Philippe Coutinho]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini]], [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edmundo (footballer)|Edmundo]], is well known for its socio-educational methodology.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-03-08 |title=De Coutinho a Andrey: Colégio Vasco da Gama completa 20 anos e recebe parabéns de formados no clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/futebol/times/vasco/noticia/2024/03/08/de-coutinho-a-andrey-colegio-vasco-da-gama-completa-20-anos-e-recebe-parabens-de-formados-no-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Due to its history of diversity and [[Mass mobilization|mobilization]], most notably exemplified by the ''Resposta Histórica'' (Historical Response) document and the [[crowdfunding]] to build the [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] in the 1920s, Vasco became a symbol of [[anti-racism]] and [[multiculturalism]], inspiring the club's motto of "''Respeito, igualdade, inclusão''" (Respect, equality, inclusion).<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 June 2022 |title=Carta aberta: respeito, igualdade, inclusão |trans-title=Open letter: respect, equality, inclusion |url=https://vasco.com.br/carta-aberta-respeito-igualdade-inclusao/ |access-date=13 March 2023 |website=Vasco.com}}</ref> However, Vasco's history has been a subject of controversy due to the club's own complex political and administrative disputes, which continues to reflect in the instability of the club's results.

At the national level, Vasco da Gama has won four [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], three [[Torneio Rio–São Paulo]] and one [[Copa do Brasil]]. In international club football, the club has won one [[Copa Libertadores]], one [[South American Championship of Champions]], and one [[Copa Mercosur]]. At the state level, the club has also won 24 [[Campeonato Carioca]]. The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil. After a few years, the racism barriers fell, and Vasco became known as "Clube de todas as raças" (Club of all races).<ref>{{Cite news |date=13 November 1998 |title=Vasco da Gama Redrew the Color Line in Brazil |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |access-date=28 March 2022 |newspaper=Washington Post |archive-date=28 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170828033951/https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/sports/1998/11/13/vasco-da-gama-redrew-the-color-line-in-brazil/e0ef3a4a-b830-4bee-89e9-bdff6ceb76fb/ |url-status=live }}</ref> The club had led the move toward a more inclusive football culture, forward-thinking not employed by leaders from other Rio-based clubs like Fluminense, Flamengo and Botafogo.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

Even though the club was not the first to field black players, it was the first one to win a league with them, which led to an outcry to ban "blue-collar workers" from playing in the league—a move that in practice meant barring blacks from playing.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

Vasco immediately secured their return to Serie A, sealing promotion to the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Série A]] on 7 November 2009 with a 2–1 victory over [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] in front of a Serie B-record 81,000 fans at [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]], and finishing as Serie B champions as well.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2009 |title=Vasco põe 81 mil no Maracanã, bate Juventude e confirma volta |url=https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=Terra |language=pt-BR |archive-date=29 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220329044117/https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

Vasco qualified for the [[2012 Copa Libertadores]] as Brazilian Cup champion, marking a return to the top South American competition after 12 years.

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues. In the [[2013 Campeonato Carioca|Taca Rio]], the club had a terrible campaign and finished seventh of eight in the table. By the end of the year, the club had been relegated for the second time in 5 years and just the second time in their history, which was secured with a 5–1 defeat to [[Atletico paranaense|Atletico Paranaense]] on the final matchday.<ref>{{Cite web |date=8 December 2013 |title=Em jogo da vergonha nas arquibancadas, Atlético-PR goleia, vai à Libertadores, e Vasco cai outra vez após cinco anos |url=http://espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=ESPN |language=pt |archive-date=22 January 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140122144501/http://www.espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |url-status=live }}</ref> In the [[2013 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]] the team entered in the round of 16, beating [[Nacional Futebol Clube|Nacional]] and then being eliminated by [[Goiás Esporte Clube|Goiás]] on away goals, despite winning the second leg 3–2.

However, they were relegated again in the [[2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A|2015 edition]], placing eighteenth.

==== 2022: Takeover by 777 Partners and return to Série A ====
On 22 February 2022 it was announced that [[:en:777 Partners|777 Partners]], a Miami-based private investment firm founded by Steven W. Pasko and Josh Wander, bought a controlling stake in Vasco da Gama. According to the terms of the deal, 777 Partners acquired a 70% stake in the club which was valued at approximately $330 million.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-02-22 |title=777 Partners agrees US$137m takeover of Vasco da Gama |url=https://www.sportspromedia.com/news/vasco-da-gama-777-partners-takeover-investment/ |access-date=2022-02-28 |website=SportsPro |language=en-GB}}</ref>

On 6 November 2022, Vasco sealed their return to Série A, after a two-year absence.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the Cross patteé, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

From July 2009, after breaking the partnership with Champs,<ref name="ChampsBreakup">{{cite web | title = Vasco rescinde contrato com a Champs | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 23 May 2009 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090523214217/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> to 2013, the official jerseys were produced by Penalty.<ref name="PenaltyAgreement">{{cite web | title = Clube acerta com a Penalty e vai receber R$ 64 milhões em cinco anos | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 17 October 2015 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20151017032946/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> Since 2020, the kits are made by [[Kappa (brand)]].{{Citation needed|date=January 2023}}

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

Vasco fans are very diverse stretching across social class lines, however the core of most Vasco support lies within the working class of the [[Rio de Janeiro|Northern Zone of Rio de Janeiro]] and [[Greater Rio de Janeiro|Rio outskirt cities]] like [[Niterói]].

==Honours==
Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first football team in the world (club or national team) to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>

'''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' ({{IPA|pt|ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡatɐz ˈvasku dɐ ˈɡɐ̃mɐ}}; English: Vasco da Gama Club of Rowing), commonly referred to as '''Vasco da Gama''' or simply '''Vasco''', is a [[sports club]] based in [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Brazil]]. Although originally a rowing club and then a multi-sport club, Vasco is mostly known for its men's [[Association football|football]] team, which currently competes in the [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], the top tier of the [[Brazilian football league system]], and in the [[Campeonato Carioca]], the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|state of Rio de Janeiro]]'s premier [[State football leagues in Brazil|state league]].<ref name="Unzelte 2002">Unzelte, Celso – O Livro de Ouro do Futebol; page 689 (Editora Ediouro, 2002) – {{ISBN|85-00-01036-3}}</ref>

Named after [[Vasco da Gama]] 400 years after his [[Portuguese discovery of the sea route to India|European–Asian sea route in 1498]], the club was founded in 1898 as a rowing club by Brazilian workers, [[Portuguese Brazilians]] and newly arrived [[Portuguese Brazilians#Portuguese immigration to Brazil|Portuguese immigrants]].<ref>Porto Editora – Vasco da Gama (futebol) na Infopédia [em linha].

Its [[Youth system|youth academy]], which has brought up [[List of Brazil international footballers|international footballers]] such as [[Romário]], [[Philippe Coutinho]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini]], [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edmundo (footballer)|Edmundo]], is well known for its socio-educational methodology.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-03-08 |title=De Coutinho a Andrey: Colégio Vasco da Gama completa 20 anos e recebe parabéns de formados no clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/futebol/times/vasco/noticia/2024/03/08/de-coutinho-a-andrey-colegio-vasco-da-gama-completa-20-anos-e-recebe-parabens-de-formados-no-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Due to its history of diversity and [[Mass mobilization|mobilization]], most notably exemplified by the ''Resposta Histórica'' (Historical Response) document and the [[crowdfunding]] to build the [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] in the 1920s, Vasco became a symbol of [[anti-racism]] and [[multiculturalism]], inspiring the club's motto of "''Respeito, igualdade, inclusão''" (Respect, equality, inclusion).<ref>{{Cite web |date=12 June 2022 |title=Carta aberta: respeito, igualdade, inclusão |trans-title=Open letter: respect, equality, inclusion |url=https://vasco.com.br/carta-aberta-respeito-igualdade-inclusao/ |access-date=13 March 2023 |website=Vasco.com}}</ref> However, Vasco's history has been a subject of controversy due to the club's own complex political and administrative disputes, which continues to reflect in the instability of the club's results.

At the national level, Vasco da Gama has won four [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], three [[Torneio Rio–São Paulo]] and one [[Copa do Brasil]]. In international club football, the club has won one [[Copa Libertadores]], one [[South American Championship of Champions]], and one [[Copa Mercosur]]. At the state level, the club has also won 24 [[Campeonato Carioca]]. The [[golden generation]] of Vasco da Gama, dubbed ''[[Expresso da Vitória]]'' (Victory Express), won five [[Campeonato Carioca|state titles]] in the eight year span between 1945–1952, and led Vasco to become the first continental club champion ever with the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]] title. This team, which included [[Moacir Barbosa]], [[Ademir de Menezes]], [[Friaça]], [[Danilo Alvim]], [[Augusto da Costa]], and [[Chico (footballer, born 1922)|Chico]], among others, is considered one of the greatest teams of its generation and of all time.

With fans worldwide, Vasco da Gama is one of the most widely supported clubs in Brazil, the [[Rio de Janeiro (state)|Rio de Janeiro state]] and the [[Americas]]. Vasco plays its home matches in [[Estádio São Januário|São Januário stadium]] since its inauguration in 1927. Occasionally, the club has also played their home matches in [[Maracanã Stadium|Maracanã stadium]] since its inauguration in 1950. Vasco holds long-standings rivalries with [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]]. Originally from rowing in the 1900s and extending to football in the 1920s as ''[[Clássico dos Milhões|O Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (the Derby of Millions), the Vasco–Flamengo rivalry is considered of the main rivalries of [[Sport in Brazil|Brazilian sports]] and one of the most prominent football rivalries in the world.

==History==
{{Main article|History of CR Vasco da Gama}}

===Foundation===
In the late 19th century, [[Sport rowing|rowing]] was the most important sport in [[Rio de Janeiro]]. At this time, four young men – Henrique Ferreira Monteiro, Luís Antônio Rodrigues, José Alexandre d'Avelar Rodrigues and Manuel Teixeira de Souza Júnior – who did not want to travel to [[Niterói]] to row with the boats of Gragoatá Club, decided to found a rowing club.{{citation needed|date=May 2023}}

On 21 August 1898, in a room of the ''Sons of Talma Dramatic Society'', 62 members (mostly Portuguese immigrants) formed '''Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama''' (Vasco da Gama Rowing Club). Inspired by the celebrations of the 4th centenary of the first sail from Europe to India, the founders named the club in honor of Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name=":0" /> The club's colors were chosen as black and white; black was chosen as a representation of the unknown seas Vasco da Gama sailed through, and white represented his victorious route. The first kit used these colors in a half and half combination, with the [[Order of Christ Cross]] in the center symbolizing the [[Christian faith]] just like in the sails of [[São Gabriel (ship)|Gama's São Gabriel carrack]]. The emblem was created shortly after too; it was round with a sailboat bearing the [[Cross pattée]].

On 26 November 1915, Vasco and Lusitania Sport Clube, another sports club founded by the local Portuguese community in Brazil and named after [[Lusitania]] which is often used as an alternative name for Portugal itself, merged, resulting in the creation of Vasco's footballing department. Beginning in the lower leagues, the club's first match was played on 3 May 1916; a 10–1 loss to Paladino FC.

===1920s: Overcoming social & class inequality===
During the 1920s, football in Brazil was a sport for the elites, and Vasco da Gama's racially diverse squad did not appease them. Some players were required to take a literacy exam before putting on their boots.

Vasco won its first top-division title with the [[1923 Campeonato Carioca]], becoming champion with a team including whites, blacks and "mulatto" players of different social classes.

In 1924, Vasco da Gama was pressured by the Metropolitan League to ban some players who were not considered adequate to play in the aristocratic league, notably because they were black or mulato and/or poor. After Vasco refused to comply with such a ban, the other big teams, including [[Fluminense Football Club|Fluminense]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]] and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] created the Metropolitan Athletic Association and prohibited Vasco from participating unless it complied with their racist demands.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

As a result, the former President of Vasco, José Augusto Prestes, responded with a letter that became known as the Historic Response (''Resposta Histórica''),<ref>{{cite web|title=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama|url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303123701/http://crvascodagama.com/index.php?display=HISTORIA-1-EN|archive-date=3 March 2009|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1924 – A resposta histórica |url=https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=vasco.com.br |archive-date=24 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220524032009/https://vasco.com.br/conteudo/1924-a-resposta-historica/ |url-status=live }}</ref> which revolutionized the practice of sports in Brazil.

In 1925, Vasco was readmitted into the "elite" league, with its black and mulatto players. By 1933, when football became professional in Brazil, most of the big clubs had black players.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}

=== ''Expresso da Vitória'' (1944–53) ===
{{Main|Expresso da Vitória}}
Between 1944 and 1953, the club was nicknamed ''Expresso da Vitória'' (Victory Express), as Vasco won several competitions in that period, such as the [[Campeonato Carioca|Rio de Janeiro championship]] in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, and 1952, and the [[South American Club Championship (football)|South American Club Championship]], the world's first ever continental club tournament, in 1948. In 1953, Vasco da Gama won its first intercontinental trophy, the [[Torneio Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer|Torneio Intercontinental Octogonal Rivadavia Correa Meyer]]. Players such as [[Ademir Marques de Menezes|Ademir de Menezes]], [[Moacyr Barbosa]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] and [[Ipojucan]] starred in Vasco's colors during that period.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2012-08-30|title=Esquadrão Imortal – Vasco 1945-1952|url=https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Imortais do Futebol|language=pt-BR|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230714/https://imortaisdofutebol.com/2012/08/30/esquadrao-imortal-vasco-1945-1952/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== The Super-Superchampions Generation (1956–59) ===
In 1956, the Vascaínos became Rio de Janeiro champions and [[Pequeña Copa del Mundo|Little World Cup]] runner-up, losing the title to [[Alfredo Di Stéfano|Di Stefano's]] Real Madrid, which Vasco would beat in a friendly shortly after the tournament, becoming the first non-European club to defeat a European Champion.<ref>{{Cite web|date=22 July 1956|title=En Partido Amistoso Vasco da Gama Vencio Al Madrid por 2–0 |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=hemeroteca - mundodeportivo.com|page=4|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203020527/http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1956/07/22/pagina-4/628064/pdf.html |archive-date=3 February 2015 }}</ref> In 1957, this generation toured Europe and won 10 consecutive matches, including yet another victory against European champion Real Madrid (4–3) on 14 June, which sealed the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]] title - this match was the first ever, at a competitive level, between two continental champions. It also was the only international tournament Real didn't win between 1955 and 1960. Vasco would also beat [[Athletic Bilbao]] (Spanish League and Cup champions in the previous year) by winning the [[Teresa Herrera Trophy]] with a 4–2 scoreline, and [[FC Barcelona|Barcelona]] (Spanish Cup champion a week earlier) inside [[Camp de Les Corts|Les Corts]], with a historic scoreline of 2–7, the second worst defeat ever suffered at home by the Catalan team, and largest in international matches.<ref>{{Cite web|date=14 August 2020|title=Em 1957, Vasco também humilhou o Barcelona: 7 a 2.

In early 1958, just before the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|World Cup]], Vasco won the [[Rio-São Paulo Tournament]], the most important championship in Brazil at the time, which included legendary teams such as Pele's Santos, Garrincha's Botafogo, Zagallo's Flamengo, and Tele Santana's Fluminense. After this memorable title, three Vasco players had important parts in the campaign for Brazil's first World Cup title: [[Vavá]] (who scored five goals in the World Cup, including two in the [[1958 FIFA World Cup Final|final]]) and defenders [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]] and [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]] (the best defending pair of the tournament, Bellini was still the Brazilian captain). After the World Cup, the team then won one of the greatest Carioca Championships of all time. In an epic competition against Zagallo's Flamengo and Garrincha's Botafogo, which ended in a three way tie on 32 points and required two extra tiebreaker tournaments to decide the champion, Vasco became the [[1958 Campeonato Carioca]] "super-superchampion".<ref>{{Cite web |title=O dramático Super-Super |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/jogoes58.html |access-date=2024-09-06 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref>

In 1959, the team went on to beat great European teams like Italian champion [[A.C. Milan|Milan]] and [[Atletico de Madrid]] ([[1958-59 European Cup|European Cup semi-finalist]] that year). Vasco was also Rio-São Tournament runner-up that year, only behind Pele's Santos. Still in 1959, five Vasco players were called up for the [[1959 South American Championship (Argentina)|1959 Copa America]]: [[Paulinho de Almeida|Paulinho]], [[Orlando Peçanha|Orlando]], [[Hilderaldo Bellini|Bellini]], [[Coronel (footballer)|Coronel]] (defenders) and [[Almir (footballer, born 1969)|Almir]] (striker). Brazil would end the tournament unbeaten (four wins and two draws) with the four aforementioned Vasco players almost always being included in the starting eleven. Despite the good campaign, Argentina would keep the title, after ending the tournament with an extra victory. Vasco, together with Botafogo, was the club that gave the most players to the Brazil national team in that period. Many football lovers think this Vasco was one of the best clubs of the world at the time, and maybe the best in 1957–58.<ref>{{Cite web|title=História, 1953-1970|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html|url-status=live|access-date=2021-12-30|website=Netvasco.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031016045655/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/mauroprais/vasco/histor4.html |archive-date=16 October 2003 }}</ref>

=== 1970s: First League Title ===
In the [[1965 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1965 Campeonato Brasileiro]], Vasco da Gama reached the league's final and were very close to winning its first league title, but lost to Pele's Santos 1–6 on aggregate. In 1970, under star players [[Roberto Dinamite]] and [[Edgardo Andrada]], Vasco won the regional title for the first time in 12 years. In 1974, they won their first league title, with Roberto Dinamite as the top scorer. In addition, they became the first team from Rio to win the league. Cruzeiro and Vasco had ended the season with the same number of points, meaning that a second match had to be played; Vasco later beat Cruzeiro 2–1 and won the title.<ref>{{Cite web|date=1 August 2019|title=Tua fama assim se fez!

=== 1997–2000: Second Golden era ===
After winning the [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Campeonato Brasileiro]] in [[1997 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1997]], beating [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]] in the final, Vasco started its ''[[Projeto Tóquio]]'', and invested US$10 million to win the [[1998 Copa Libertadores]]. Vasco da Gama won the Copa Libertadores in its Centenary Year, beating [[Barcelona Sporting Club|Barcelona]] of [[Ecuador]] in the [[1998 Copa Libertadores Finals|finals]] 4–1 on aggregate, and 50 years after winning its first South American trophy ([[South American Club Championship 1948|South American Championship of Champions]]).

By winning the Copa Libertadores title, Vasco da Gama earned a berth in the [[1998 Intercontinental Cup]], where they faced the [[1997–98 UEFA Champions League]] winners [[Real Madrid C.F.|Real Madrid]] and lost 2–1.

As a result of their Copa Libertadores title two years prior, Vasco earned a berth for the inaugural [[2000 FIFA Club World Championship]] held in Brazil. They beat [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] of England, [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] of Mexico, and [[South Melbourne FC|South Melbourne]] of Australia in the group stage to reach the final. It finished 0–0 after extra time in an all-Brazilian clash with [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], but Vasco lost 3–4 in the penalty shootout.

Vasco's [[Copa Mercosur]] campaign [[2000 Copa Mercosur|that year]] began with a 4-3 loss to [[Peñarol]], but Vasco eventually qualified to the knockout round with ten points.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Copa Mercosul 2000 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/mauroprais/vasco/2000mer.html |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=NetVasco.com}}</ref> In the quarter finals, Vasco eliminated [[Rosario Central]] on penalties after the Argentine side scored a late equalizer to send the game to a penalty shootout. In the semi-finals, Vasco eliminated River Plate 5-1 on aggregate, with a famous 4-1 victory at [[Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires)|Estadio Monumental]] in the first leg. Vasco qualified to the finals against [[Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras|Palmeiras]], and typically the finals are played over two legs, but a third match would be needed if a different team won each leg. This ended up being the case; Vasco had won the first leg 2–0, but Palmeiras won the second leg 1–0 six days later.

Vasco also won the [[Copa João Havelange]] in 2000. Seen as a controversial competition organized by [[Clube dos 13]] rather than [[Brazilian Football Confederation|CBF]], Vasco played [[Associação Desportiva São Caetano|São Caetano]] in the [[Copa João Havelange Final|finals]]. The club drew the first game 1–1 at [[Estádio Palestra Itália]], and the second game was called off by Rio de Janeiro State Governor [[Anthony Garotinho]] in the first half because a fence collapsed at [[São Januário]] Stadium, which resulted in the injuries of many fans.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-12-30|title=Fence collapse hits soccer final|language=en-GB|work=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|access-date=2021-12-30|archive-date=30 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230712/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/1094303.stm|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=A Queda do Alambrado de São Januário|url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/especial/especial08/|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=NetVasco|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010719074809/http://www.netvasco.com.br:80/especial/especial08/ |archive-date=19 July 2001 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=30 December 2010|title=Dez anos depois, final da Copa João Havelange ainda não terminou|url=https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o|url-status=live|access-date=30 December 2021|website=Goal.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230230711/https://www.goal.com/br/news/619/especiais/2010/12/30/2283070/dez-anos-depois-final-da-copa-jo%C3%A3o-havelange-ainda-n%C3%A3o |archive-date=30 December 2021 }}</ref> Despite the disaster, Vasco won the rescheduled second leg 3–1 at the Maracana to lift the trophy.

=== 2001–2008: Decline ===
In the [[2001 Copa Libertadores]], Vasco became the first team to win all six group games, which included big victories (0–3 and 4–1), against Colombian champions [[América de Cali]]. In the round of 16, the club eliminated [[Deportes Concepción (Chile)|Deportes Concepción]], but then suffered a 4–0 aggregate loss against eventual champions [[Boca Juniors]], which was considered a disappointing elimination despite the high hopes that were set after their perfect group stage run.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Libertadores 2001 |url=https://www.netvasco.com.br/futebol/libertadores2001/ |access-date=2023-10-13 |website=Netvasco.com}}</ref>

Shortly after the 2001 season, the club experienced a sharp decline, finishing 15th in [[2002 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2002]] and narrowly avoiding relegation in [[2003 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2003]] and [[2004 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2004]], although in [[2005 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2005]] they qualified for the [[2006 Copa Sudamericana]] with a 12th-placed finish. Vasco's 2006 season was decent, finishing sixth in the league and gaining qualification for the following years Sudamericana, as well as reaching the [[2006 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil final]] for the first time, losing to Flamengo.[[File:Camisavasco.JPG|thumb|2007 Vasco shirt]]

==== 2008: Relegation ====
The team finished the [[2008 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2008 Série A]] in a disastrous 18th place and was relegated to the [[2009 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|second division]] for the first time since its foundation after a 0–2 home loss against [[Esporte Clube Vitória|Vitória]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 December 2008 |title=Vasco não faz sua parte, perde para o Vitória e cai para a Série B |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |access-date=2022-08-20 |website=UOL Esporte |archive-date=20 August 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220820180817/https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/12/07/ult59u180389.jhtm |url-status=live }}</ref> Until then, it had been one of only six clubs to have never been relegated from the first division, along with [[Cruzeiro Esporte Clube|Cruzeiro]], [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Santos Futebol Clube|Santos]] and [[São Paulo Futebol Clube|São Paulo]]. (The last two did not participate in the [[1979 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|1979 Brazilian Championship]], in order to avoid conflicts with Paulista Championship schedule.)

Despite suffering relegation, Vasco had a respectable run in the [[2008 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]], making it al the way to the semi-finals where they were eliminated by eventual champion [[Sport Club do Recife|Sport Recife]] on penalties. <ref>{{Cite web |date=29 May 2008 |title=Nos pênaltis, Sport derrota o Vasco e chega à final da Copa do BR |url=https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/futebol/ultimas/2008/05/29/ult59u158672.jhtm |access-date=2024-09-05 |website=UOL Esporte}}</ref>

Vasco immediately secured their return to Serie A, sealing promotion to the [[2010 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|2010 Série A]] on 7 November 2009 with a 2–1 victory over [[Esporte Clube Juventude|Juventude]] in front of a Serie B-record 81,000 fans at [[Estádio do Maracanã|Maracanã]], and finishing as Serie B champions as well.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2009 |title=Vasco põe 81 mil no Maracanã, bate Juventude e confirma volta |url=https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=Terra |language=pt-BR |archive-date=29 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220329044117/https://www.terra.com.br/esportes/futebol/brasileiro-serie-b/vasco-poe-81-mil-no-maracana-bate-juventude-e-confirma-volta,fc29199955e9a310VgnCLD200000bbcceb0aRCRD.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

=== 2010–2012: Copa do Brasil title, Return to Copa Libertadores ===
In the 2010 league season, their first season back in the top flight since relegation, Vasco finished in 11th place, and qualified for the [[2011 Copa Sudamericana]]. In the [[2010 Copa do Brasil]], the team reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Vitoria on away goals.

The season was dubbed as ''"Vasco's Redemption Year"'', with many lauding Vasco as one of [[Football in Brazil|Brazilian football]]'s elite teams once again.

==== 2013–2021: Triple relegation ====
{{Main|2013 CR Vasco da Gama season}}

After a good season in 2012, Vasco started their 2013 poorly and were hampered by financial issues. In the [[2013 Campeonato Carioca|Taca Rio]], the club had a terrible campaign and finished seventh of eight in the table. By the end of the year, the club had been relegated for the second time in 5 years and just the second time in their history, which was secured with a 5–1 defeat to [[Atletico paranaense|Atletico Paranaense]] on the final matchday.<ref>{{Cite web |date=8 December 2013 |title=Em jogo da vergonha nas arquibancadas, Atlético-PR goleia, vai à Libertadores, e Vasco cai outra vez após cinco anos |url=http://espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |access-date=2022-03-29 |website=ESPN |language=pt |archive-date=22 January 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140122144501/http://www.espn.com.br/noticia/375064_em-jogo-da-vergonha-nas-arquibancadas-atletico-pr-goleia-vai-a-libertadores-e-vasco-cai-outra-vez-apos-cinco-anos |url-status=live }}</ref> In the [[2013 Copa do Brasil|Copa do Brasil]] the team entered in the round of 16, beating [[Nacional Futebol Clube|Nacional]] and then being eliminated by [[Goiás Esporte Clube|Goiás]] on away goals, despite winning the second leg 3–2.

After one season in the [[2014 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B|Série B during 2014]], Vasco gained promotion and in May 2015 won the [[2015 Campeonato Carioca|Campeonato Carioca]] after a 12-year hiatus. However, they were relegated again in the [[2015 Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A|2015 edition]], placing eighteenth.

==Identity==

===Logo===
Vasco's first shield was created in 1898. The current shield with the diagonal sash was not adopted until the 1920s. The current shield bears a black background, with a white diagonal sash going left to right, that has a sailboat in the center, and letters CR and VG being directly left and below the sailboat respectively.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1980, an outline was added to the logo. The logo has gone through various changes throughout the years, but still resembles the main layout used in 1920. The current logo, adopted in 2021, curved the sails of the sailboat and the flag on top, emphasized the waves, added a front spine to the vsailboat, and removed the rectangles that had been present in the 2015 logo.<ref name="1945kit" />

Given the 2017 Royal Patronage, the shied logo can be topped by the Portuguese royal heraldic crown.

===Kit evolution===
[[File:Vasco historia uniforme2.jpg|thumb|Vasco da Gama's kit evolution]]

Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest Brazilian clubs and has had several different kits in its history. Vasco da Gama's first kit, used in rowing, was created in 1898, and was primarily black, with a left white diagonal sash.

Vasco's first football kit, created in 1916, was completely black, and was easily identified because of the presence of a white tie and a belt. In 1929, the tie and the belt were removed. However, the kit remained all-black. In the 1930s, the home kit's color was changed again; it became black with a white right diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

In 1945, the kit's color was changed to white, and a black diagonal sash was introduced. The sash was introduced because the club's manager at the time, [[Uruguay]]an [[Ondino Viera]] liked the sash used in his previous club's kit, [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] of [[Argentina]], and adopted this pattern in Vasco's away kit. So, both kits had a right-to-left diagonal sash.<ref name="1945kit">{{cite web |title=Símbolos |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |publisher=Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama official website |language=pt}}</ref>

In the 1970s the [[Order of Christ Cross]] was replaced with the Cross patteé, which is still used today.

In 1988, the sash located on the back of the shirt was removed. At the beginning of the 90s, stars representing the club's titles began to be used above the logo, and numbers were black and white instead of red. In 1996, the sash located on the back was returned. This kit became very similar to the 1945 one, with the exception of the addition of a thin red line that outlines the sash.<ref name="1945kit" />

Vasco currently has three kits. The home shirt's main color is black with a white sash. The short and the socks are black. The away kit is similar to the home kit, but the main color is white, the sash is black, and the shorts and socks are white. In 2009–10 the third kit was all white, with a red "[[Knights Templar|cross of the Knights Templar]]". In 2010, the away kit changed to black in honor of 1923's team, which gave up playing for having black players, as they were not allowed to play with white players at that time.

From July 2009, after breaking the partnership with Champs,<ref name="ChampsBreakup">{{cite web | title = Vasco rescinde contrato com a Champs | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 23 May 2009 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090523214217/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1161617-9877,00-VASCO+RESCINDE+CONTRATO+COM+A+CHAMPS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> to 2013, the official jerseys were produced by Penalty.<ref name="PenaltyAgreement">{{cite web | title = Clube acerta com a Penalty e vai receber R$ 64 milhões em cinco anos | url = http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | access-date = 9 December 2009 | publisher = GloboEsporte.com | language = pt | archive-date = 17 October 2015 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20151017032946/http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Times/Vasco/0,,MUL1191837-9877,00-CLUBE+ACERTA+COM+A+PENALTY+E+VAI+RECEBER+R+MILHOES+EM+CINCO+ANOS.html | url-status = live }}</ref> Since 2020, the kits are made by [[Kappa (brand)]].{{Citation needed|date=January 2023}}

===Anthems===
Vasco's official anthem was composed in 1918, by Joaquim Barros Ferreira da Silva, and it was the club's first anthem.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uniforme |url=http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419110040/http://www.crvascodagama.com/?display=CLUBE-3#ancora6 |archive-date=19 April 2008 |access-date=7 December 2023 |website=crvascodagama.com}}</ref> There is another official anthem, created in the 1930s, called "Meu Pavilhão" (meaning ''My Pavilion''), whose lyrics were composed by João de Freitas and music by Hernani Correia. This anthem replaced the previous one. The club's most popular anthem, however, is an unofficial anthem composed by Lamartine Babo in 1942.

=== Royal Patronage ===
Since 2017, Vasco has been able to use the word Royal before its name, "Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama", through the Royal Decree of the Head of the Portuguese Royal House, [[Duarte Pio, Duke of Braganza|Duarte Pio, Duke of Bragança]], which renewed and conferred the Royal Patronage on Vasco da Gama. The royal title would be granted to the club in 1908, in its first decade of existence, on the occasion of the visit of the King [[Carlos I of Portugal|Carlos I]] to Brazil, who had already decided to renew and confer the title of "Royal Society", which Vasco had already enjoyed during the period when [[Luís I of Portugal|Luís I]] was King of Portugal, but was prevented from doing so by the [[Lisbon Regicide|regicide of February 1, 1908]].<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2021-03-14 |date=2020-08-09 |first=Autor |language=pt-BR |last=soumaisvasco |title=Vasco: único clube brasileiro com o título de Real concedido pela Casa Real Portuguesa (Patronato Régio) |url=https://soumaisvasco.com/2020/08/08/sou-mais-vasco/ |website=Sou Mais Vasco}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2017-08-21 |language=pt-PT |last=webtailor |title=Esclareimento#1 |url=https://casarealportuguesa.org/esclarecimento1/ |website=Casa Real Portuguesa}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2018-04-13 |language=pt-PT |title=Real Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama |url=https://autarcasmonarquicos.com/medalha-de-honra-ao-merito-comemorativa-do-120-o-aniversario-do-real-club-de-regatas-vasco-da-gama/ |website=APAM}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |access-date=2024-03-02 |date=2024-02-03 |language=pt-br |title=Real Vasco da Gama?

Vasco's first trophy was the 1923 Campeonato Carioca, during the club's debut season in the state's first division, won by a squad in which the majority of players were black and which greatly influenced the fight against racism in Brazilian football. For a large portion of fans, the club's most important honour is not a trophy, but rather the ''[[:pt:Resposta_Histórica|Resposta Histórica]]'', a letter sent in 1924 refusing the discriminatory order of the Rio de Janeiro league, which wanted to ban Vasco from its competitions if it did not disaffiliate twelve of its players (all black).<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-04-03 |title=O que é Resposta Histórica?

Vasco is the first football team (club or national team) to win a continental-level tournament, the [[South American Championship of Champions|1948 South American Championship of Champions]]. The club was also the first to win an intercontinental tournament contested by two continental champion clubs, the [[1957 Tournoi de Paris]], against [[Real Madrid CF|Real Madrid]] in the final.

In terms of the number of trophies won, Vasco's most successful decade was the 1990s, when the club won two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, four Campeonato Carioca, one Torneio Rio–São Paulo, one Copa Libertadores and one Copa Mercosul.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-01-17 |title=Títulos do Vasco: veja lista de conquistas do clube |url=https://ge.globo.com/google/amp/futebol/times/vasco/especial/2024/01/17/c-titulos-do-vasco-veja-lista-de-conquistas-do-clube.ghtml |access-date=2024-09-23 |website=ge |language=pt-br}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Vasco's biggest rivals are the other clubs in Rio de Janeiro: [[CR Flamengo|Flamengo]], [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]] and [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]]. However, Vasco also attracts antipathy from fans of several other clubs across the country. According to a survey released by [[ESPN (Brazil)|ESPN]], Vasco is the third most hated club in the country, behind Flamengo and [[Sport Club Corinthians Paulista|Corinthians]], the clubs with the largest number of fans.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-04-26 |title=Pesquisa revela os times mais e menos odiados do futebol brasileiro; veja a lista |url=https://www.espn.com.br/futebol/brasileirao/artigo/_/id/11960212/pesquisa-revela-times-mais-menos-odiados-futebol-brasileiro-veja-lista |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN.com |language=pt}}</ref> This is mainly due to the past history of controversial managers and players who passed through the club.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Há exatos 20 anos, Vasco incomodava por poder e arrogância; hoje, por se apequenar |url=http://espn.com.br/blogs/paulocobos/776058_ha-exatos-20-anos-vasco-incomodava-por-poder-e-arrogancia-hoje-por-se-apequenar |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=ESPN |language=pt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=O jogador mais odiado do Brasil: as polêmicas eleições de PLACAR |url=https://veja.abril.com.br/coluna/tbt-placar/o-jogador-mais-odiado-do-brasil-as-polemicas-eleicoes-de-placar/ |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=VEJA |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-11-18 |title=Eurico, Vasco e o termômetro do ódio {{!}} Blog Márvio dos Anjos |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/blogs/especial-blog/marvio-dos-anjos/post/eurico-vasco-e-o-termometro-do-odio.html |access-date=2024-05-08 |website=globoesporte.com |language=pt-br}}</ref>

Vasco's biggest rivalry is against [[Clube de Regatas do Flamengo|Flamengo]], called the ''[[Clássico dos Milhões]]'' (Derby of the Millions), usually played at the Maracanã and whose name comes from the fact that Flamengo and Vasco have the largest fanbases in the Rio de Janeiro and two of the 5 largest of Brazil. The teams first met in 1922, with Flamengo winning 1–0. This rivalry has the highest average attendance in the Serie A.<ref name="crowds">{{cite web |title=Vasco e Flamengo iniciam a decisão no Rio |url=http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |access-date=31 January 2008 |publisher=Gazeta Esportiva |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071105033145/http://www.gazetaesportiva.net/reportagem/futebol/rep328.htm |archive-date=5 November 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-05-19 |title=Flamengo x Vasco tem maior média de público da história do Brasileirão |url=https://tntsports.com.br/futebolbrasileiro/Flamengo-x-Vasco-tem-maior-media-de-publico-da-historia-do-Brasileirao-20200519-0016.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=TNT Sports |language=pt}}</ref>

Vasco holds other strong local rivalry with [[Fluminense FC|Fluminense]], whose matches are known as ''[[Clássico dos Gigantes]]'' (Giants Derby). The derby gets its name because of the "giant" matches between the two, mainly the finals of the [[1984 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A]], which Flumiense won, and the [[1985 Copa Libertadores]] group stage matches, which ended in two draws. The 1984 final had an attendance of 128,781 people, one of the largest in the history of Brazilian football.

The ''[[Clássico da Amizade]]'' (Friendship Derby) is the rivlary between Vasco and [[Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas|Botafogo]], that gets its name due to the "mild" rivalry both have, due to Vasco having a large margin of victories over Botafogo and there being few decisive matches between them. Nevertheless, Botafogo is one of Vasco's cross-city rivals and their matches usually draw crowds. In 2021, Botafogo beat Vasco 4–0 in the Serie B, virtually eliminating any possibility of promotion for Vasco, while Botafogo put themselves closer to promotion.<ref>{{Cite web |date=7 November 2021 |title=Botafogo goleia o Vasco em São Januário, assume a ponta da Série B e encaminha acesso |url=https://www.lance.com.br/brasileirao/botafogo-goleia-vasco-sao-januario-assume-ponta-serie-encaminha-acesso.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=Lance! |language=pt-br}}</ref> The first match between the two clubs was in 1923, a 3–1 victory for Vasco.

The matches between Vasco and [[America RJ|America]] are known as ''Clássico da Paz'' (Peace Derby). During the 20th century America was one of the top clubs in Rio, but towards the turn of the 21st century it declined in performance. On 12 February 2011, Vasco thrashed America 9–0, one of the worst defeats of any derby.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2011-02-12 |title=Vasco goleia o América por 9 a 0 e Felipe 'vence duelo com a estátua' |url=https://globoesporte.globo.com/rj/futebol/campeonato-carioca/noticia/2011/02/vasco-goleia-o-america-por-9-0-e-felipe-vence-duelo-com-estatua.html |access-date=2023-12-07 |website=globoesporte.com}}</ref>
