Notes:

  2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 Tied in points

As there is no tiebreaker criteria for the points tie, a quadrangular involving Botafogo, Corinthians, Santos and Vasco should be played. However, due to the preparation of Brazil national football team to 1966 FIFA World Cup, the CBD decided to proclaim all four clubs as champions.
