A track laid in the Nilton Santos stadium before the classic between Botafogo and Flamengo increased the tension between the clubs. The object, with the words “Here we value life” was repudiated by the red-black vice-general, Rodrigo Dunshee, who requested the withdrawal and threatened to go to the STJD (Superior Court of Sports Justice).

– 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.

Shortly after Dunshee’s placement, the banner was removed from view. Ge’s report sought contact with the Botafogo board, but there was still no response.
In social networks, the movement “Nobody loves like people”, of the Botafogo fans, affirmed that the banner was not a reference to Flamengo, but an exaltation of the position of the black and white club during the coronavirus pandemic.
Read the 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.
