Mancha Verde, Independente miss promotion, Camisa 12 relegated | OneFootball

The samba schools Mancha Verde and Independente Tricolor, organized groups associated with Palmeiras and São Paulo, respectively, did not achieve access to the Special Group of the São Paulo Carnival. Only the top two finishers move up to the first division.

Mancha Verde finished in third place with 269.4 points, the same score as the second-placed Pérola Negra, which was ahead due to tiebreaker criteria. Independente finished just below, in fourth place, with 269.3.

For exceeding the maximum parade time, Independente was penalized with the loss of two-tenths in its final score. Had it not been penalized, it would have finished in the top 2, above Mancha Verde and Pérola Negra. The champion school of the Access Group was Acadêmicos do Tucuruvi.

Camisa 12

Considered the second largest organized fan group of Corinthians, Camisa 12 finished in eighth and last position of the Access Group and was relegated. In 2027, the alvinegra association will compete in Access Group 2, which is equivalent to the third division of the São Paulo carnival.

The parades took place last Sunday at the Anhembi Sambadrome. The schools were evaluated in nine categories: Allegory, Percussion, Front Commission, Theme, Evolution, Costume, Harmony, Master of Ceremonies and Flag Bearer, and Samba Theme Song.
