The 2012 season was Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama's 114th year in existence, the club's 97th season in existence of football, and the club's 41st season playing in the Brasileirão Série A, the top flight of Brazilian football. The 2008 season was the only season where the team was down graded resulting in their playing in the Brasileirão Série B in the 2009 season.
After doing well in the 2011 season, Vasco da Gama aimed to win its 5th title of the Brasileirão Série A. The team came close to achieving this in 2011, but lost to the Corinthians. As well as competing in the series A, Vasco da Gama returned to the Copa Libertadores (the main football competition of the Americas). In the eleven years after the 2001 Copa Libertadores, the team had enjoyed 8 consecutive wins which was a record, before being eliminated by Boca Juniors, the 2001 finalists. Despite doing so well, Vasco da Gama could not defend the title of champion of Copa do Brasil, because of conflicting schedules. (A Brazilian team competing in the Copa Libertadores cannot compete in the Copa do Brasil but this is planned for reconsideration for the 2013 Copa do Brasil).

Vasco da Gama, unlike some other Brazilian clubs, decided to keep its main lineup of the 2011 season for 2012. Top players, like Dedé, Rômulo, Felipe, Juninho Pernambucano and Bernardo, were kept on, at least for the Copa Libertadores competition, which only takes up the first half of the season.[3] Despite this, there are other players who may play for Vasco da Gama in the 2012 season. Some of them are: the centre backs Réver, of Atlético Mineiro, Rodolfo, from Grêmio (on loan from Lokomotiv Moscow), Miranda, from Atlético Madrid, and Leandro Almeida, from Dynamo Kyiv, the left backs Maxwell, from Barcelona, and Kléber, from Internacional, the Argentine attacking midfielder Walter Montillo, from Cruzeiro, the Chilean second striker Eduardo Vargas, from Universidad de Chile, the Colombian second striker Jonathan Copete, from Santa Fe, and the strikers Diego Tardelli, from Anzhi Makhachkala, and the Argentine Facundo Parra, from Independiente.[4][5] Another possibility would be the return, by loan from Al-Jaish, of the central back Anderson Martins. But despite his wishes to return, he stated that could not because of his contract. Moreover, he had not yet made his debut for his new club, as it had not registered for the Qatar Stars League.[6]
Players leaving the team
Vasco da Gama announced several outputs: on 8 December, announced the contract rescission of the Paraguayan full back Julio Irrazábal.[7] On 9 December, announced the free transfer of the central back Gian Mariano (which was loaned to Avaí) to Ponte Preta.[8] On 11 December, the contract rescission of the central back Jadson Viera, who was on loan to the Nacional (Montevideo) (coincidentally, the chief opponent of the Vasco da Gama in the group stage of the Copa Libertadores), was signed.[9] On 13 December, announced the loan of the second striker Rodrigo Pimpão (which was loaned to Omiya Ardija) and the attacking midfielder Enrico (which was loaned to Ceará) to Ponte Preta.[10] Also on 13 December, was announced the transfer of the striker Élton to Corinthians.[11] On 2 January, was announced the loan of the playmaker Jéferson for three seasons to Bahia, by winning a dispute with the Náutico.[12] On 4 January, Vasco da Gama announced the contract rescission of the striker Patrick.[13] On 7 January, Vasco da Gama announced the loan of the left back Márcio Careca to Mirassol.[14] On 20 January, Vasco da Gama lost the multipurpose Jumar. Jumar was traded to the Guangzhou R&F.[15]
Transfers
Vasco da Gama commenced their summer transfer activity on 3 January, signing the central back Rodolfo, after several negotiations with Lokomotiv Moscow, on a free transfer. Rodolfo has presented at the club in the same day.[16] Also on 3 January, the attacking midfielder Bernardo (who was loaned to Vasco da Gama since the 2011 season), has signed a new contract, this time of purchase. Bernardo signed for three seasons in a transfer reported to be worth €1,45 million.[17] On 4 January, the left-back Thiago Feltri sign contract for three seasons from Atlético Goianiense on a free transfer, after Feltri would be approved in the medical examinations on 27 December.[18][19] On 10 January, Vasco da Gama hit with Argentine midfielder Matías Abelairas. Abelairas came six months after being away from the fields, long after passing by the River Plate, where it was revealed.[20] On 14 January, Vasco da Gama hit the signing of Ecuatorian striker Carlos Tenorio. Tenorio was presented by the current club president Roberto Dinamite, who was also a striker, like Tenorio. Tenorio comes after passage through the Middle East, where he played for Al-Nasr and the Al-Sadd (in the latter, he played along with the playmaker Felipe).[21]
Despite this back-and-coming players, the biggest change, so far, was in the club management: the departure of Rodrigo Caetano, director of football, which was doing a great and victorious job in the club since 2009.[22] Many names are speculative, but the favorite of the management is Marco Aurélio Cunha, currently alderman of São Paulo and former director of football of São Paulo. Furthermore, Cunha has a great relationship with coach Ricardo Gomes, which would facilitate his coming.[23] After many days with uncertainties and negotiations with various names like Newton Drummond (who refused the proposal) and Ocimar Bolicenho (who suffered rejection by the Vasco da Gama fans), finally announced the new director of football: Daniel Freitas (known as the "right-hand man" by Rodrigo Caetano) was presented on 5 January, along with Thiago Feltri.[24][25]
January
Vasco da Gama debuted in the state championship by defeating Americano: 2-0. With some subjects, such as Fernando Prass, Dedé, Juninho Pernambucano and Diego Souza, gave only two new faces among the Starting XI: Thiago Feltri, debuting in Vasco da Gama, and Leandro Chaparro, who for the first time in Vasco da Gama, begins a game as a starter. Even with all playing well, the highlight was Fagner. In the first goal, he crossed to Alecsandro score. And he did the second, after beautiful assist from Dedé. The highlight negative was Jonathan. Jonathan, who replaced Leandro Chaparro in the second half, was sent off after a scuffle with Mário Loyola.[26] On 25 January, Vasco da Gama announced the out of the central back Víctor Ramos. Víctor Ramos, player belonging to Standard Liège, was loaning to Vitória.[27] In the second round, in the debut of Rodolfo, Vasco da Gama won Duque de Caxias, 3-1. Juninho Pernambucano opened the scoring on a beautiful long shot. Gilcimar tied up, but Alecsandro, after corner kick from Juninho Pernambucano, and Diego Souza, after crossing from Fagner, finished the scoring. Not a very strong rain that hit Macaé during the game stopped the good work of Vasco da Gama.[28] On 31 January, Vasco da Gama announced the loan of the goalkeeper Tiago to Grêmio Barueri.[29]
February
Under intense pressure, Vasco da Gama beat Bangu with a final score of 3-1; Alecsandro, in a penalty kick, opened with the game's first goal. However, the game was paused for ten minutes after confusion arose between the fans and police; an explosion of tear gas occurred and everyone in the stadium was affected. Following the break, a tie was secured by Bangu after Tiano converted a penalty. Thiago Feltri and Bernardo then converted a free kick to regain the lead and secure eventual victory for their club.[30]
In the fourth round, Vasco da Gama beat Friburguense with a score of 2-0. The game marked the debut of the third uniform design for the season: a blue uniform, in reference to the maritime staff origins of the club. Diego Souza was the highlight of the match, scoring two goals, assisted by Juninho Pernambucano and Felipe, respectively.[31]
Considerable expectation surrounded the return of the Vasco da Gama club to the Copa Libertadores. However, the club was unable to emerge victorious, with observers citing nervousness, a lack of luck and unusual errors for the 2-1 defeat at São Januário to Nacional. The Nacional opened the scoring on a corner kick move. At first, the goal was given to Andrés Scotti, but then was marked own goal by Dedé. In the second half, on the first pitch, Vicente Sánchez opened 2-0. Alecsandro decreased the score (2-1), and Vasco da Gama drew a reaction, that included a goal from Carlos Tenorio (but that was canceled as well), but it was.[32]
The defeat of Vasco da Gama to the Nacional was considered overwhelming and contributed to a discussion about the level of Brazilian football at the time, which had been initiated following games like Flamengo vs. Universidad de Chile (0-4), and Santos vs. Barcelona (0-4).[33]
In a game on 12 February 2012, Vasco da Gama defeated the Fluminense Football Club, 2-1, in the Clássico dos Gigantes ("Giants derby"). Fluminense gained the lead position due to a goal from Thiago Neves, but Alecsandro, with two opportunistic goals, secured eventual victory for the Vasco da Gama club. However, the performances during the match was overshadowed by the Brazilian media's focus upon the perceived poor performance of referee, Antonio Schneider.[34]
In a postponed game (15 February), Vasco da Gama won the Volta Redonda 3-0 at São Januário. Alecsandro, assisted by Fellipe Bastos scored the first. Wiliam Barbio, assisted by Alecsandro, scored the second and his first goal for Vasco da Gama. And Alecsandro, in penalty suffered by Thiago Feltri, closed the scoring. All this in just the first time.[35] But, during this game, the news fell like a bombshell in the club: Bernardo, darling of the crowd, opened in a day, a lawsuit against the club, asking for the termination of his contract, on behalf of non-payment of your FGTS (Fundo de Garantia por Tempo de Serviço). The crowd, heard the news, booed Bernardo when it was replaced by Jonathan. Bernardo, in response, applauded (ironically) and made a gesture telling the crowd to shut up. The situation of Bernardo will be resolved only after the Carnival.[36]
On 18 February, in a match that was not worth much, Vasco da Gama beat Boavista 1-0. Vasco da Gama took the field already qualified, guaranteed first place and knowing your opponent in the next phase. Still, the team, most of them reserves, gave work and, with a goal by Kim, guaranteed perfect recovery team in the first phase of the Taça Guanabara.[37] On 22 February, in Clássico dos Milhões (the Millions Classic, the greatest classic of the Brazilian football), Vasco da Gama beat Flamengo, in his best style (turning), for 2-1. Flamengo took the lead with Vágner Love, after good bid with Ronaldinho and Deivid. But Vasco da Gama drew with Alecsandro, after poisonous kicking by Juninho Pernambucano and rebound granted by Felipe. In the first time, the game was extremely exciting, with various chances for both sides, and incredibly missed goal by Deivid.[38] In the second half, the teams got tired and slowed down. But the Vasco da Gama persisted and succeeded: after a cross from Kim, Fagner headed. Felipe rebound again and Diego Souza added to give final numbers to the game that has had a confusion between Willians and Fellipe Bastos.[39] The great performance of the team of Vasco da Gama, especially Juninho Pernambucano and Dedé, and the poor performances of Ronaldinho and Felipe, both of the Flamengo, were overshadowed by the unbelievable bid of Deivid, who won worldwide repercussions.[40]
On 26 February, Vasco da Gama reached the final with a perfect recovery. But everything went downhill. The team went unrecognized and lost to Fluminense, 3-1. The game got exciting with bids for both sides and some refereeing errors by Marcelo Henrique de Lima. Until Fagner d'fouls inside the area in Wellington Nem. Penalty marked and converted by Fred. The second goal came on a brilliant move: Deco saw the position of Fernando Prass (who was preparing to cross, like the other players who were in the area) and sent directly to the goal, opening 2-0. In the second half, Vasco da Gama was to attack, in despair, including Dedé, like a striker. Thus, spaces were left and the counter-attack came Fluminense: Fred, after pass from Thiago Neves, made 3-0. After that, the game became a defensive attack. And Vasco da Gama was able to decrease: crossing by Fagner, butt from Eduardo Costa: 3-1 and a glimmer of hope to Vasco da Gama. But there was not time and Fluminense were crowned champion of the 2012 Taça Guanabara.[41]
On 29 February, Vasco da Gama disappointed in his debut in Taça Rio. After open 2-0, with Alecsandro and Felipe (on a beautiful play with Juninho Pernambucano), gave the tie to the Bonsucesso in São Januário. The surprising draw and the bad performance was explained by the defeat of the team in Taça Guanabara Final, which rocked the group.[42]

The dispute of Bernardo with Vasco da Gama over. Sorry and have with the debts paid, Bernardo, along with his agent and his lawyer, will take action against the club. Bernardo, unlike Carlos Alberto (who trains at the club separately for a bad relationship with Roberto Dinamite since early 2011), will rejoin the squad.[43]
On 3 March, Vasco da Gama, with an almost full-time reserve (the owners, only Fernando Prass served) won Olaria by 2-0. The situation was defined as the first time: Carlos Tenorio, after pass Felipe, made the first; Éder Luís, after crossing the young Dieyson, concluded with enough cold to give final numbers to match. The bad news was on account of Carlos Tenorio: the striker, in the second time in a cross, tore the Achilles tendon and had to have surgery the day after the game (4 January). Tenorio will have to stay away for six months and is out of the Libertadores' squad.[44][45]
On 5 March, Vasco da Gama landed with centre back Fabrício, who last season played for Atlético Paranaense.[46]
On 6 March, Vasco da Gama got his first victory in the Libertadores: 3-2 in Alianza Lima. Dominating the action throughout the match, Vasco da Gama could get away with a quiet victory. But it turned out well. An unpretentious big kick became a launching pad for Sebastián Charquero, who, after failure of Rodolfo, came face to face with Fernando Prass, silent São Januário and doing 1-0. The team, unlike the game against Nacional, not felt the blow and kept pushing. And after the launch of Diego Souza, Wiliam Barbio was left alone with the goalkeeper. He pass looking for Alecsandro, but before that, Christian Ramos arrived and ended up doing against. The turning point came in the second half: Fagner in a corner, crossed, and Dedé, quite technical, headed to the back of the net, making 2-1. The Vasco da Gama has increased: after dubious penalty marked, Juninho Pernambucano was for the recovery and did. The Alianza Lima still scared, doing 3-2 with Walter Ibáñez. But it did not pass. The main character of the match was eventually Alecsandro: striker missed two penalties when the game was 1-1 (causing the expulsion of Giancarlo Carmona) and 2-1. For this reason, it ended up being unable to beat the third penalty by Felipe and Juninho Pernambucano.[47]
In the press conference surprise, on 8 March, Vasco da Gama announced the hiring of a new CEO: Franklin Assunção.[48] The new "enhanced" Vasco arrived surrounded by many misgivings. In his presentation, Assunção had planned to make a speech. But ended up not doing and looking nervously at the press conference. Assunção appeared saying that he had worked in clubs lesser extent, as the Swiss Chiasso and the Italian Ascoli, which would have been contradicted by the current leaders of the clubs mentioned.[49]
On 11 March, Vasco da Gama won with authority Madureira: 3-0. Play with the little public and low technical quality, was resolved in the second half: Juninho Pernambucano, Fellipe Bastos and Allan tried to leave the small crowd in the stadium happy.[50]
On 14 March, Vasco da Gama draw, in Estadio Dr. Nicolás Léoz, in Asunción, with Libertad: 1-1.[51] Vasco da Gama dominated the first half and made 1-0 with Diego Souza in the header after a cross by Fagner. In the second half, the game, which was already tense, won the air war: Diego Souza took unfair Ismael Benegas entry (which caused him a mark on the left calf), and the judge just gave the foul. In the next move, Diego Souza retaliated with an elbow, and sent off. The move caused a general confusion, which caused a yellow card for Wiliam Barbio and Sergio Aquino. At the exit to the locker room, Diego Souza had a bottle thrown in his direction. Diego Souza "pushed" the 4th referee and threw the bottle back to the fans of Libertad, hitting two fans. After the confusion, the Vasco da Gama began to have three difficulties: playing a man down, the violence of the Libertad players and passivity of arbitration commanded by the Chilean Enrique Osses in this regard. And the draw of the Libertad came: after pinball, the ball fell to José Ariel Núñez, who scored the goal that defined the game. But while the game is not over, the battle continued: Allan received a yellow card, possibly haven't been allowed into the place of Renato Silva. In a similar bid, which occurred prior to the side of Libertad, the judge didn't impose a yellow card for Pablo Velázquez, which came even before leaving Rodolfo Gamarra. José Ariel Nunez, after missing violent on Rodolfo, and received a second yellow card, and hence the red card. Miguel Samudio (who had previously discussed with Nílton) beat Fagner, giving you a fuller in the belly. The referee Enrique Osses chafed at the Brazilian and sent up. The game ended, but the war climate, no. On the way back to Rio de Janeiro, in the Aeroporto Internacional do Galeão, Fernando Prass, Felipe and Diego Souza complained about the hostile treatment of Libertad and their fans and incompetence of the arbitration led by Enrique Osses. But the worst would come: Dedé and Renato Silva complained of racism: the fans have imitated and called the central defense duo of "macacos".[52][53] The case of racism caused a national task force, and, supported by athletes as Neymar, a campaign began for the team playing against Libertad in São Januário with the third kit of the 2011 season, where the shirt commemorating the historic 1923 team (known as the "Camisas Negras" (the Blackshirts)) that overthrew racism in Brazilian football.[54]
On 16 March, despite all the debts paid off, the loan of Bernardo for the Santos was announced. The case had caused discomfort for the fans and the entire club, which would cost a lot to take him back after he attitude committed. Bernardo was loaned to the end of the year for the Santos (Bernardo has a contract with Vasco da Gama until the end of 2015).[55]
On 18 March, aiming at the game against Libertad, Vasco da Gama saved players in the Clássico da Amizade (the "Friendship Derby"), against Botafogo, and paid dearly for it: lost by 3-1. After failure of the defense, Fellype Gabriel opened 2-0 in the first time. In the second half, Fellipe Bastos, in a beautiful free kick, declined. But Fellype Gabriel, inspired, made another, signed a hat-trick and confirmed the victory of Botafogo.[56]
On 21 March, Vasco da Gama received the Libertad and won, 2-0.[57] Before the game begins, the crowd did a wonderful party to show their indignation with respect to the case of racism in the previous week by supporters of Libertad.[58] When the ball starts rolling, the Vasco da Gama is a boom's team Libertad. The team from Rio de Janeiro was about 70% of ball possession, but turned into opportunities, which made the crowd anxious and nervous (even because of Libertad tues docked some counter-attacks and power to be winners). In return for the second time, two substitutions changed the landscape of departure: Juninho Pernambucano and Allan entered in place of Eduardo Costa and Éder Luís, respectively. And before long the two who entered the show that came: Juninho Pernambucano charged corner, the defense temporarily removed, and Juninho Pernambucano, with almost no angle, kicked into the goal, surprising the goalkeeper Rodrigo Muñoz and scoring a beautiful goal, attesting to its great quality technique. Minutes later, Allan made beautiful play by the right and crossed low to Alecsandro, free and do, with easily, 2-0 on the scoreboard. The answer turned out to be discrimination on the pitch, playing a beautiful football and leaving the crowd satisfied with what he saw.
On 25 March, was agreed to reinstate of Carlos Alberto to the first squad. Carlos Alberto had been training separated from the first squad, along with Bruno Paulo and Renato Augusto. The highest salary he receives, in addition to having good technical quality and output of Bernardo to Santos contributed for his return.[59] On the same day, Vasco da Gama only drew with Resende, 1-1, in São Januário. In days of tributes to Chico Anysio (Brazilian comedian who died on 23 March, who was a Vasco da Gama fan),[60] Resende opened the scoring with Elias, after pass from Marcelo Régis. Alecsandro (who had earlier missed a penalty), tied, head, after a cross from Allan.[61]
On 28 March, the emotion took over in São Januário: Edmundo said farewell to the football, and in style. São Januário received so far, the largest crowd of the season (21,247) to bid farewell to one of his greatest idols. And the party was even bigger with the rout imposed: 9-1 on the reserve team of Barcelona de Guayaquil, in a rematch of the final of the Copa Libertadores 1998. Edmundo, a penalty kick, opened the scoring, and even made the third goal, in a beautiful play with Fagner and immortalizing the "rolling" (celebrating the fourth goal against Flamengo in a 4-1 in 1997 Brazilian Série A Semifinal). Alecsandro made it two in an incredible move involving Edmundo and Éder Luís. Nicolás Asencio, after failure of Dedé, tried to spoil the party, making the score 3-1. But after that, only gave Vasco da Gama: Juninho Pernambucano made the fourth goal before the end of the first time. In the second half, Éder Luís, heel, made the fifth; Fellipe Bastos, in a free kick, after the goalkeeper Washington Vera failed; made the sixth, Allan, after table with Fellipe Bastos, made the seventh; eighth goal, Diego Souza did; Edmundo, replaced by Wiliam Barbio in 86 minutes, was dismissed from the football. But still had time for one more: in all rehearsed, Allan made his second goal and gave final numbers to the party: 9-1.[62]
On 31 March, Vasco da Gama thrashed the Macaé, away: 4-1. The first was Diego Souza, after pass from Alecsandro. Then it was Diego Souza who gave the pass for Juninho Pernambucano enlarge.

In the first goal, Fellipe Bastos dribbled Edgar González and kicked the ball: the ball slipped in Giancarlo Carmona and ended up covering Salomón Libman, entering angle. Beautiful goal. But Fellipe Bastos scored a goal even more beautiful: Éder Luís, on the right, rolled to Fellipe Bastos make a placed and powerful kick, making a great goal: 2-0. The game, which apparently was quiet, gained an air of tension. Renato Silva, Felipe and Dedé stages a scenes worthy of slapstick, and the ball fell to Miguel Curiel, who did 2-1 and set fire to the game. In the last move of the match, Nílton split with a super strong in Giancarlo Carmona and was sent off in a move that angered both the players (who were upwards of Nílton), and the fans of Alianza Lima (which began to hit it towards objects in Vasco da Gama players).[64]
On 7 April, in the second Clássico dos Milhões in this season, Vasco da Gama, shorn of many of its key players, lost 2-1 to Flamengo.[65] Vágner Love, after bid claim that there was a lack in Rodolfo, and ended up kicked, getting Fernando Prass by surprise, you just hitting the feet of Deivid, who opened the scoring.

At the last minute, Fernando Prass committed penalty in Leonardo Moura. Ronaldinho hit and converts: 2-1. After the game, players, managers and coaches of Vasco da Gama departed upward from the referee Wagner dos Santos Rosa, before his bad and biased performance, and had to be restrained by the Military Police and the GEPE (Grupamento Especial de Policiamento em Estádios), both present. After the game, players such as Rodolfo, Eduardo Costa, Diego Souza, Fagner and Fellipe Bastos, and leaders such as Roberto Dinamite and Daniel Freitas did harsh criticism of arbitration, which was defended by Jorge Rabello (chairman of the FERJ Arbitration Commission).[66][67][68]

Moreover, in talks with the Italian strikers Vincenzo Iaquinta, also of Cesena, and Marco Borriello, from Juventus (on loan from Roma). The news was that Franklin Assunção was in Italy persuading the Romanian player to go to Vasco da Gama, at the end of the season. But on 11 April, news arrived: Franklin Assunção would be waived so the return trip. The justification was that assumption would not have come with an international sponsorship of high value, as promised, and that still would not have authority to negotiate players for Vasco da Gama. But then it was said that Assunção would not be excused. But there is dissatisfaction with their work, there.[69][70]
On 12 April, Vasco da Gama closed his campaign in the group stage of the Copa Libertadores with a flourish, winning Nacional at Gran Parque Central in Montevideo, by 1-0. Vasco da Gama, before the game was already qualified for round of 16, as well as the Libertad, but it was what was best to try to secure first place; unlike this, Nacional was a mixed as the team was eliminated from the competition. The game was good, with attacks on both sides, but with a certain area of Vasco da Gama. Until the goal came on a counterattack: Alecsandro pass for Diego Souza, who kicked; Jorge Bava managed to defend, but Diego Souza grabbed the rebound and scored the goal of the match. The party of the Nacional crowd was the highlight of the match: despite the elimination confirmed one week before and lost the last game, the crowd made the party, singing, jumping, letting off fireworks, among others.

The crowd rebuked the output of the player, both for the quality and the identification of Allan with the club.[81] Because of the transfer window, Allan can play for another month by Vasco da Gama.[82]
On 16 May, Vasco da Gama and Corinthians staged a truncated game and fought with little technical (strength of the teams). The result was no different: 0-0 at São Januário. With the storm that hit the Rio de Janeiro, the lawn was filled with mud. In addition, the times were in excess with respect to each other. The football game turned into a chess game, and there were few clear opportunities to score. The first: Jorge Henrique butt and Fernando Prass make a great save, with the right foot. And the second: Alecsandro butt, and make a goal (nullified by the referee Sandro Ricci).[83]
On 20 May, Vasco da Gama made his debut with victory in the Brazilian Série A: 2-1 at Grêmio in São Januário. While Vasco da Gama played with the reserve team, aiming the game against Corinthians 3 days later, Grêmio played with mixed team, aiming the game against Bahia 4 days later (for the Copa do Brasil). In a strong and creeping free-kick, Fellipe Bastos scored the first goal of Vasco da Gama in the competition. The Grêmio's answer came soon after a good played with Rondinelly, Fernando had with the luck (Nílton's deviation) to break even. In the second half, Juninho Pernambucano and Alecsandro entered the game and set: intersection of Juninho Pernambucano and butt from Alecsandro: 2-1. The game also featured a penalty: Marcelo Martins Moreno hit, but Fernando Prass saved.[84]
On 23 May, Vasco da Gama said goodbye to the Copa Libertadores, after being defeated by Corinthians by 1-0 at Pacaembu in São Paulo. The game, like the first, was hotly disputed, with both teams cautious, and because of that, there were few clear opportunities. The clearest of these was Diego Souza: after failure of Alessandro, who kicked the ball on the attacking midfielder, Diego Souza shot of middle-of-field, unmarked, alone. When he arrived in the area, Diego Souza just kicking poor and dirty, allowing the defense of Cássio in a move that left the Pacaembu in silence. At 88 minutes, when the match was heading for penalties, Alex knocked sideways and Paulinho jumped and headed, with no chance for Fernando Prass; Corinthians' joy and relief, and Vasco da Gama's sadness and disbelief, who bade farewell to the Copa Libertadores in a traumatic way.[85]
On 26 May, Vasco da Gama released Kim to negotiate with Náutico. Kim, and didn't have many chances, didn't play a good role in the season, although he scored a beautiful goal.[86]
On the same day of the Kim's release, Vasco da Gama healed the "hangover" by the elimination in Copa Libertadores winning Portuguesa by 1-0 at Canindé in São Paulo. Despite the erosion of fighting against Corinthians, the team struggled and succeeded, after a beautiful goal: Fagner won in a divided against Raí and crossed; Alecsandro straightened his body and hit a beautiful bicycle kick: a golazo![87]
June
On 6 June, in a beautiful game, Vasco da Gama beat Náutico by 4-2 in São Januário. Alecsandro, following table between Éder Luís and Fellipe Bastos, opened the scoring. After, Felipe was free to go ahead and drop a missile and scoring the second goal of the night. In the second half, a lot of goals left: Diego Souza passed for Juninho Pernambucano, who even marked by four defenders, made a beautiful goal: 3-0. After this, Souza stole the ball of Fellipe Bastos, and touched for Martinez, who dribbled Juninho Pernambucano before making 3-1. Immediately, Alecsandro scored his second goal of the match, after a cross from Felipe. Still had time for one more: after a long pass from Rhayner, Araújo won Renato Silva in the race, dribbled Fernando Prass, and gave final numbers to match: 4-2, and party in Rio de Janeiro.[88]
On 10 June, in another great game, Vasco da Gama won Bahia 2-1 at Pituaçu in Salvador, Bahia. The two crowds were out in force at the stadium, and provided a show, which combined with the proper game. Early on, Diego Souza was fouled, and Juninho Pernambucano showed why he is considered one of the best free kickers in history to score a goal that left Marcelo Lomba property. The game continued at high speed and with both teams looking to attack. And Vasco da Gama arrived at his second goal: after a chest pass by Alecsandro, Diego Souza dribbled Titi and covered Marcelo Lomba, making a golazo and being cheered by the crowd in this stadium. In the second half, the rate decreased, and Bahia, desperate for a reaction, did Vasco da Gama become more cornered. But the goal of honor only came in stoppage: Júnior, after fighting in the area, made the goal of Bahia in the last move of the match: a Samba party in the Axé land.[89]
On 13 June, the Argentine Matías Abelairas was released to negotiate with Puebla. Abelairas showed their dissatisfaction by not getting many chances in the team, and asked to be released (this claim has been satisfied), and enter into negotiation with the Mexican team.[90]

Mazinho, after a broken up dribbling in Dedé, opened the scoring. But Juninho Pernambucano made his second consecutive goal in the competition in a free kick that surprised Deola.[91]
On 23 June, Vasco da Gama suffered his first defeat in Brazilian Série A: 1-3 against Cruzeiro in a packed São Januário. Vasco da Gama printed your tiki-taka style, coming to be with 65% of ball possession. But Cruzeiro, with a well-armed boom, managed to hold the Vasco da Gama's momentum, and was rewarded: after an error between Fernando Prass and Éder Luís, Wellington Paulista kicked, and the ball fell to Walter Montillo, who kicked at an angle, silencing the stadium. In the second half, the outlook has not changed. Then came the Cruzeiro second goal: Walter Montillo released for Wellington Paulista, which gave a light touch, covering Fernando Prass. Immediately, the Vasco da Gama scored his goal: to cross the area, Fábio went wrong, and Rodolfo dropped. But the reaction stopped there: New counterattack, Tinga crossed for Anselmo Ramon, who gave the final numbers game.[92]
On 28 June, Vasco da Gama announced the transfer of the defensive midfielder Rômulo for Spartak Moscow. Rômulo's transfer was highly criticized by fans and media, who commented that, at worst hypothesis, should wait until the end of 2012 Summer Olympics for a possible appreciation of the young player.[93]
On 30 June, Vasco da Gama beat Ponte Preta 3-2 in a dramatic game and highly disputed. Ponte Preta went ahead: Baraka launched, and Roger opened the scoring in São Januário.

In the second half, Vasco da Gama proved why it is known as the "time of the turn". Éder Luís, after touch of Alecsandro, equalized. Missing 15 minutes to the end of the game, William Matheus is overthrown by Lucas: Diego Souza charges very strong, and takes Vasco da Gama to victory.[94]

Despite the victory, the team was extremely booed by the crowd because of its poor performance, causing Fernando Prass leave the field as the hero of the night.[97]
On 18 July, Vasco da Gama defeat São Paulo 1-0 in Morumbi, São Paulo. Since the beginning of the match, Vasco da Gama imposed his tiki-taka play style, involving a confused and messy São Paulo team. The team took a lot of danger with the Juninho Pernambucano's knuckleballs, who were stopped, or by Denis, or by post. But the goal came in the second half: after a beautiful table with Wiliam Barbio, Fagner invaded the area and made the only goal of the match, which could have been such a rout the superiority of Vasco da Gama on top of São Paulo.[97]
On 21 July, Vasco da Gama suffered two casualties: the outputs of Diego Souza and Fagner. The first was coveted by Al-Ittihad for a long time. And the desire of the Saudi team was able to realize his wish, and managed to sign the midfielder, who was greeted with celebrations at the Airport International of Jeddah. Fagner already received an offer last minute of Wolfsburg. The proposal was readily accepted by the player.[98] On the same day, the crew of Vasco da Gama completed the signing of Dakson. The midfielder, from the Bulgarian Lokomotiv Plovdiv, came to the club surrounded by mistrust, because, despite being an idol in the Bulgarian team, is virtually unknown in Brazilian football.[99]
On 25 July, Vasco da Gama defeat Botafogo 1-0 in Engenhão. The game was pretty much expected by the confrontation between Juninho Pernambucano and Clarence Seedorf, two of the best players in the Brasileirão. The Surinamese-Dutch midfielder got to play well, but the Brazilian midfielder had another gala performance: missing 2 minutes, Juninho Pernambucano invaded the area, but if balance and fell. Lying on the lawn, dribbled two Botafogo players and touch to Alecsandro scoring the winning goal, making O Reizinho da Colina ("The King of the Hill") got out of the field cheered.[100]

August
On 5 August, Vasco da Gama drew 0-0 with Corinthians in São Januário, Rio de Janeiro. Like the first match between them for Copa Libertadores, the game was very truncated, and very few clear opportunities, which resulted in a goalless score.[102]
On 8 August, Vasco da Gama won Sport 2-0 at Ilha do Retiro, Recife. In a complicated game and truncated, mainly because of the soggy lawn because of the rain, the Vasco da Gama opened the scoring on a beautiful free kick from Juninho Pernambucano (the entire game booed by the crowd of Sport, being ex-player club).

On 12 August, Vasco da Gama lost to Atlético Mineiro: 1-0 in Independência, in Belo Horizonte. The game between two of the top three teams was as expected: busy, rushed, and extremely technical.

With that, eventually reaching its goal: Ronaldinho dribbled Auremir and crossed; Fernando Prass flattened, and Jô headed into the goal, leading to delirium nearly 20,000 fans who were at the stadium and made a party.[104]
On 16 August, Vasco da Gama drew 2-2 with Coritiba in São Januário, Rio de Janeiro.

In the second half, Vasco da Gama recovered: in the beautiful play from Carlos Alberto, Felipe equalized the match. At 88 minutes, a free kick from Juninho Pernambucano, Wendel turned the match. The crowd began to party, but two minutes later, Éverton Ribeiro, after crossing scored the equalizer. The crowd, which was celebrating two minutes before, started booing and humiliate the team and his crew until after the end of the match.[105]

Friendlies
Edmundo's farewell
The only friendly of the Vasco da Gama in 2012 season was against Barcelona de Guayaquil, in a rematch of the final of the Copa Libertadores 1998. The friendly match was marked specially to mark the farewell of Edmundo, one of the greatest idols in the history of Vasco da Gama. The last match of Edmundo was the lost by 2-0, in São Januário, against Vitória, for the 2008 Brazilian Série A, which marked the only e unprecedented relegated of Vasco da Gama. The choice of opponent (Barcelona Guayaquil) was the fact that the game that Edmundo would most like to play is the final of the Copa Libertadores, taking into account that Edmundo in this time was at Fiorentina, and that was the main player in Brazilian football in 1997, with more than primordial for the winning the 1997 Brazilian Série A.[134]
