Here is explanation:
You are comparing two things here I. e last year and the present year that they performed brilliantly, so, u need to use the comparative form which is (more). Thanks .... I believe this really helped
Let's analyze this ....
Saying brilliant than last year is wrong, because you are comparing two years, so it should be more brilliantly or much more brilliantly (2nd degree comparison)
But these are not in the options,
We have more brilliant than, instead of more brilliantly, which makes that option wrong.
The only option that is right here, is Option A.
A without doubt is highly correct
