The absurd tale of a club that pulled itself to the top of the sport by pushing all the rules and changing the sport forever. A history that now even goes past just one owner, into a club legacy of finding new and ever more creative (and expensive) ways to do things.
Much Love,
The Zealand

A similar thing happened to me once. América-SP was playing at Atlético Sorocaba and I went there to support my hometown club. Sorocaba is much closer to São Paulo (~100 km), the city I was living in, than to São José do Rio Preto (~400 km), the city where América is from. When I arrived at the stadium, the police wasn't prepared for an away fan, and there was no away fans area designated. Then I watched the whole game in the middle of the local team fans, surrounded by some policemen.

Many regional clubs wouldn't exist, and thousands of professionals would be unemployed if the state leagues were to end.

@ronatans5423 3 месяца назад

as a Brazilian I just wanted to correct a few things: 1. The Copa FGF is a state cup which teams with "no calenday" play in (teams not in the 1st to 4th national divisions), so big clubs like Gremio and Internacional do not play. Another one is the Copa Paulista in Sao Paulo 2. I'm pretty sure that the winner of the FGF Cup gets to choose if they want top be in the 4th division or the Copa do Brasil, idk but ik thats how it is with the Copa Paulista. And why did he choose the Copa and not the 4th division? Money! It pays more money, Thus with the money from the Copa do Brasil they were able to invest in getting promoted!
