## Championship

The twenty-eight teams competing in the championship were divided into two groups of fourteen teams. The Green Group comprised the teams that had qualified to the Third Phase and the winners of the Second Phase's two groups in the previous year, and the Yellow Group comprised other the ten teams that had been eliminated in the Second Phase, and the four teams that had been promoted from the second level. The bottom team in the Yellow Group would be relegated.
