Last Sunday night (5), Botafogo and Bahia faced each other at the Nilton Santos stadium in the fifth round of the Brasileirão and the Bahian team beat Flamengo's rival. After the match, a video of Totói, son of former Flamengo player Everton Ribeiro, went viral on social media.

In the video in question, Totói appears singing the famous song that Flamengo fans use to make fun of Botafoguenses, who are considered as the "crying team": “and no one can shut up this crying person, the president is crying, the whole team is crying, the fans are crying.”

After going viral On social media, Marília Nery, Everton Ribeiro's wife and Totói's mother, reported that the filming was only supposed to be shared with Instagram's "best friends", however, the video ended up going to the social network's stories and everyone could see it.< /p> YOUNG ROWER

Totói is the youngest son of Everton Ribeiro and is considered one of the young rowers who founded Flamengo. This is because the child is an avid Rubro-Negro fan and does not hide the fact that he is in love with Mengo. The little one lives wearing the robes and singing Mais Querido's songs, even after moving from Everton to Bahia.
