The Case For Them
Botafogo play their football in the Brazil Serie A, and have been at it since 1904. Adopting a club from Brazil means a new calendar, a new commentary language and a league table you'll be checking at odd hours. That's the point.
- · Pick a matchday and follow one full season
- · Learn one chant before you buy the shirt
- · Plan a trip around a home fixture, not the other way round
