Palmeiras and Puma shirt has ‘intrusive, undue’ accent error

Palmeiras and Puma have launched the third kit for the 2026 season, and the design pays tribute to the title won by Italy two decades ago, while also highlighting the club’s origins.

‘Wrong accent’

On the back of the shirt, there is the inscription “Scoppia che la vittoria è nostra,” but there is an accentuation mistake. In Italian, the word vittoria does not take an accent as it does in Portuguese, and it also has a double t.

– With an intrusive, improper accent – explains Professor Pasquale Cipro Neto, in a conversation with NOSSO PALESTRA.

– In Italian, there are only accents on words stressed on the last syllable and on some stressed monosyllables. And when there is one, it is grave when the vowel has an open sound (farò), and acute when the sound is closed (perché) – Pasquale comments before adding:

– This makes no sense, because the whole phrase is in Italian, except for the word “vittoria,” which is spelled incorrectly. They have to fix it. Let them change it in the next batch.

Same phrase and correction

Another detail of Palmeiras’ blue shirt is the patch on the lower part, featuring the map of Italy. In the image, the phrase is also present and written correctly, without the accent on “vittoria.”

Debut

The debut of the new model is scheduled for next Sunday (23), in the match against Vasco in the Brazilian Championship.
