The track “Here we treasure lives” was expanded again at the Nilton Santos stadium for the classic between Botafogo and Flamengo. The object became the subject of controversy after the vice president of Flamengo, Rodrigo Dunshee, took to social networks to request withdrawal and threatened to enter the STJD (Superior Court of Sports Justice).
Asked about the return of the banner, the Botafogo squad responded that the statements refer to the club’s position since the beginning of the pandemic and that they have nothing to do with Flamengo.

– I will take advantage of this space to ask the president of Botafogo to take out this aggressive band that is not very elegant and I am sure it did not come from him, but if he allows it, it will be. I think this does not have to become an issue that is referred to the STJD. We are adversaries and not enemies, Dunshee wrote on social media.

After the Dunshee demo, the banner was even removed. However, the movement “Nobody loves like people”, of the Botafogo fans, also took a position and stated that the band did not refer to Flamengo.
Read the official note from “Nobody Loves Us”:
1) The track has absolutely nothing to do with any other club, whatever it is.
2) The banner is a reaffirmation of the pride we feel in seeing our club take the initiative that we consider appropriate in the midst of a pandemic.
3) BOTAFOGO has just obtained a sponsorship where the attitude of the club to the pandemic was essential for the brand that sponsors us.
4) We are surprised that someone gets angry when they see a sign with the words “Here we value lives”. It should be the rule and we believe that all clubs think or at least should think that way and prioritize life more than money, titles or whatever.
5) We are sorry to have removed the banner. We consider it absurd that we do not have freedom of expression to position ourselves in favor of our club’s position.
