In 2010, the champions of national tournaments from 1959 to 1970—Taça Brasil and Torneio Roberto Gomes Pedrosa—have been declared official winners of the Brazilian championship or "champions of Brazil" (not winners of "Brasileirão" or "Série A") by the Brazilian Football Confederation. The titles of old tournaments, cited in the Brazilian championship history, are equated to the title of "Série A," but the tournaments are cataloging with their original name in the statistics (despite being different competitions, they confer the same title).
