Panini Campeonato Brasileiro 1998

The 42th edition of the Brazilian championship was contested by 24 clubs. Corinthians won the championship after a three games final (first leg, second leg, and replay) against Cruzeiro. In the last game they won 2-0 with the goals of Edilson and Marcelinho Carioca. In that season, Corinthians had players like Gamarra, Rincon and Vampeta in the squad. The best scorer of the Brasileirao 1998 was Viola (Santos) with 21 goals.

The Panini sticker album of the league includes all 24 clubs, after the licence problems with the championship 1997, when eight clubs were not included. The album begins with the table of contents and the foreword by the editor.

For each club there are 18 stickers displaced over three pages. In the two player pages there are 11 stickers of players and two stickers composing the puzzle of the star player in action. In the page with the club details and results we find five stickers: the badge (shiny sticker), the team (two stickers), the mascot and the home kit.

At the end of the album, after the presentation of the clubs, there are the stickers of the 24 stadiums of the championship 1998. An amazing section where we can admire legendary Brazilian stadium like the Olimpico Monumental, Morumbi, and Mineirao.
