Vasco da Gama: The People’s Soul of Brazilian Football in Miniature

At the heart of South American football history lies a club that embodies passion, social justice, and raw talent: the Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama. Its representation in Subbuteo La Leggenda pays tribute to a team that has shaped Brazilian football—not only through trophies but through its values.

A Club with Deep Roots and Strong Values

Founded in Rio de Janeiro in 1898, Vasco da Gama is one of the oldest and most beloved clubs in Brazil. It played a key role in both football and Brazilian society: it was the first club to field players of African descent and from working-class backgrounds, breaking with the elitism that dominated the sport in the early 20th century.

Winner of 4 Brazilian championships, 1 Copa Libertadores (1998), and numerous state titles, Vasco is recognized as one of Brazil’s greats.
