[cs02132]

Wow so it was actually a handball and a foul

 

[Coupé It]

Flumenese is about to do this.

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Flumenese is about to do this.

They remind me of my club, San Lorenzo. Last big club in Brazil not to win this tourney. We finally lost our virginity in 2014. I hope they pull this off.

 

[Coupé It]

If I’m a fan of any South American team it’d have to be Vasco Da Gama.

Only because my pops played Sunday League football on a team with Vasco Da Gama kits as a kid and I just grew to love those kits.

Also because it pisses my Brazilian boys off because they’re all fans of São Paulo teams.

Vasco da Gama has a beautiful kit and crest

 

[noskey]

Portchop’s the same way.

No way can I root for Benfica in any capacity. I don’t care if they’d “make the country look good” in a tournament.

Thank you. It blows my mind when folks are all "SEC! SEC!" without a hint of shame or irony.

I was angry with the nation of Mexico for letting those scumbags in seattle win the CONCACAF Champions League. Couldn't imagine seeing a rival lift a trophy and be proud of them.

God I loved those kits.

Black with the white stripe and red Portuguese cross.

So dope.

 

[haicheo]

shout out Marcelo man, happy for him.

Game is not over yet.

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Now it’s over haicheo

Very happy for Fluminense!

I know this feeling, we finally won ours in 2014. It was the highlight of my sports fandom until Argentina won the WC last year.

 

[Coupé It]

That’s huge. Their firat CL title. Wow.

 

[Bantz Lord T]

That’s huge. Their firat CL title. Wow.

Up until the last 20 years or so, Brazilians didn’t prioritize this tournament. Nowadays, their top clubs have so much more money than Argentine clubs that it may be a while until we see someone else win it.

 

[Coupé It]

My Palmeiras boy just said “I don’t even remember my first CL title, there have been so many”

He’s angry

 

[HNL HI]

ok, now Andre in January please.

 

[Bantz Lord T]

My Palmeiras boy just said “I don’t even remember my first CL title, there have been so many”

He’s angry

I like Palmeiras in Brazil. If I had to choose one Brazilian club to root for, it’d be them.

Cool.

But right now I’m enjoying his tears too much

Let me thrive.

 

[Coupé It]

I can understand why you like Palmeiras tho. Bantz Lord T

Club founded by Italian immigrants, all they do fly the Italian flag. Blah, blah, blah.

And that’s EXACTLY who my boy is. A Brazilian with Italian lineage. Like so many Argentines.

Brazilian Guidos.

 

[MetalMario]

I went the Aepps route and only “chose” Corinthians because of their drip. I got their basketball jersey. And a rapper shouted them out one time

 

[Coupé It]

Remember Vasco did the Portugal kits better than Portugal did with Nike did last year.

But these are the classics
