Overview
- Flamengo finished champions on 79 points, with Palmeiras vice on 76, and Cruzeiro and Mirassol completing the G4 and direct Libertadores berths.
- Fluminense beat Bahia 2–0 to claim fifth and the last direct group-stage spot, while Botafogo ended sixth on 63 and awaits Copa do Brasil outcomes to know its Libertadores path.
- Internacional beat Bragantino and Vitória edged São Paulo to avoid the drop, as Ceará lost to Palmeiras and Fortaleza fell to Botafogo to complete the relegated quartet with Juventude and Sport.
- Prize and continental allocations below the G4 remain subject to Copa do Brasil results, under a new TV-rights landscape that heightens the financial impact of final positions.
- Alerj votes today on whether to keep its president Rodrigo Bacellar in custody after his PF arrest in operation Unha e Carne, while the STF First Panel opens the ‘núcleo 2’ coup-related criminal trial on Dec. 9, with six defendants including ex-PRF chief Silvinei Vasques and proceedings expected to run into next week.
