Down the Table

Behind the two finalists, Avaí and Chapecoense both mounted strong postseason pushes before falling short in the semi-finals. Chapecoense pushed the eventual champions to sudden death in a penalty shootout, while Avaí could not overturn Barra's narrow aggregate lead. Further down the standings, Figueirense, Joinville, Brusque, Concórdia, and Carlos Renaux all missed out on the top four playoff positions during the 18-round regular phase. For the remaining sides, attention now shifts toward rebuilding youth rosters ahead of forthcoming national cup qualifiers.
