Brazil 1987

Originally a championship with 28 teams was to be organized by the CBF;
however, Botafogo and Coritiba, who had been left out, went to a sports
court and there won the right to participate.  This of course led to many
other teams trying to enter the tournament.  Moeover, the CBF at the time
was broke and could not finance a Brazilian championship.  This led to
the breakaway of the Clube dos Treze, and two tournaments, the Copa
União or Green Module and the Yellow Module organized by CBF.

I COPA UNIÃO/GREEN MODULE

NB: this championship was organized by the "Clube dos Treze" (Club of Thirteen),
independently of the Brazilian Federation (CBF).  The thirteen "big" clubs
invited three others (Coritiba, Goiás and Santa Cruz-PE) and played for 
the Copa União.  Meanwhile the CBF organized a tournament for 16 of the
clubs left out (including 1986 runners-up Guarani of Campinas), called the 
Yellow Module, see below, and insisted on semifinals between the top-2 of the 
Copa União (Flamengo and Internacional-RS) and those of the Yellow Module
(Sport Recife and Guarani).  Flamengo and Internacional did not enter, and CBF 
inscribed Sport Recife and Guarani for the Copa Libertadores, but in 1988 the
composition of the championship (called II Copa União) was based on that 
of the 16 teams of the Copa União 1987 (the top-7 of the Yellow Module
and América-RJ were added).
