Runner-up: with 68 points, Tricolor Gaúcho ends Series A in second place. There were 21 wins, five draws and 12 defeats, which made Renato Gaúcho’s team surpass Flamengo and Atlético-MG in the last round.
How was the game
The match started evenly at Maracanã. Fluminense got scared with Cano’s shot from midfield, and Grêmio responded with a good move from Suárez on the right. Cano was again in danger after a great plot, but stopped in Caíque’s defense.
The insistence had an effect in the 31st minute, when Rodrigo Ely blocked Martinelli’s dribbling attempt with his hand, and the referee signaled the penalty. Arias charged with class and opened the scoring.
The Grêmio turnaround came shortly after, in an interval of two minutes: in the 42nd minute, Suárez received the ball alone behind the defense, shot through the middle, dribbled past Fábio and scored a great goal. At 44, after a ball poorly hit by the Rio defence, Galdino took the ball and sent a firm shot into the corner.
In the second stage, Suárez prolonged the show: at 17, he suffered a penalty for Guga’s foul. Reinaldo was going to take the penalty, but, to the ovation and requests of the fans, the Uruguayan went for the ball and scored a beautiful goal with a dig.
