their 2nd stage tiebreak match against Botafogo. Their request was granted but the league was
not resumed until May 1973.

Após o terceiro turno, o campeonato foi interrompido porque o Treze pediu a anulação da sua
partida contra o Botafogo pelo desempate do segundo turno. A anulação foi concedida mas o
campeonato só recomeçou em maio de 1973.
