Last year's champions of Brazil, Fluminense, retained their first division status, as the appeal of the Portugese, who were relegated from the elite division, were rejected as they were stripped of points.

The Brazilian Sports Court rejected an appeal by Portugese, who lost four points for having a suspended player in the team in the last round of the championship.

Without these points, Portugesa fell below Fluminense in the 20-team table and will play in the second division next season.

The four-time champion of Brazil, Fluminense, was thus saved from relegation by the court's decision.

The new champion of Brazil is Cruzeiro, who dominated this season with 11 points more than the second-placed Gremio.
