The best Campeonato Brasileiro of history, and one of the best in the world, came to an end today. After 38 rounds, 4 clubs were fighting for the title: Flamengo, Inter, Palmeiras and Sao Paulo. Many were the possibilities. And three of them won.

Flamengo, with goals by David and Ronaldo Angelim, became the champion for the 6th time.

In about 24 hours the 2009 Campeonato Brasileiro, one of the best in history, will be over. But the last round reserved lots of emotions. The title can be lifted by 4 sides. Another 3 fight for 1 spot in the Copa Libertadores. And other 4 try to escape the two seats still available in the second division.

It felt like it was never going to happen again. It seemed that Brazilian titles were going to be connected forever to the generation of Zico and Junior. But, today, Flamengo fans were released from the past. The most popular side in Brazil took home its 6th national title the first since 1992.

One day after the end of 2009 Campeonato Brasileiro, the best players of the tournament were awarded. Placar, the most traditional football magazine in Brazil, handed for the 40th time the Bola de Prata (silver ball) and the Bola de Ouro (golden ball). Later, CBF awarded its Craque Brasileirão, a newer prize but the one that gets an official seal.
