In 1923, the Clube de Regatas Vasco da Gama takes part of the Rio de Janeiro state football First Division league for the very first time. The team wins the title having black and mulatto men among its players. With its impressive victories, that trajectory begins to occupy an important role in the imagination built on the early decades of Brazilian football. This whole construction is based on Mario Filho s work, The Negro in Brazilian Soccer . The book tells the achievements of this man as a heroic journey, in which a team made up of blacks and mulattos had to overcome racial prejudice in order to achieve his goals. The present research aims at comparing Mario Filho s narrative with what was written in the newspapers of that time. The main objective is to check for inconsistencies or more coincidences between what Mario Filho has written and what the newspapers reported. By taking up the newspapers from the 1920s, it is possible to examine how the event was seen by the press at the time. It is also possible to determine whether racial bias was present in the pages of newspapers, as Mario Filho s work makes us believe. The comparison showed that, in some parts, Mario Filho s narrative is greatly supported by reports published in 1923. However, on other occasions, the author finds no support in other sources consulted.
