This Tuesday, for their debut in Group C of the Libertadores, Grêmio visited Strongest-BOL at the Hernando Siles Stadium, and were defeated by a score of 2-0. The home team’s goals were scored by Luciano Ursino and Enrique Triverio.
Thus, with the negative result, Grêmio, who entered with the reserve team due to the return game of the Campeonato Gaúcho final, remained at zero in the points, thus going to the last place in the group. On the other hand, with the victory, Strongest took the lead with the first three combined. However, it is worth remembering that Estudiantes-ARG still faces Huachipato-CHI this Wednesday, in the same group.
Grêmio’s next duel will be this Saturday, against Juventude, in the second leg of the Campeonato Gaúcho final. The ball rolls at 4:30 pm (Brasília time), at Arena do Grêmio. For the Libertadores, the team returns to the pitch on Tuesday, against Huachipato-CHI, at 7 pm (Brasília time), also at home. Strongest hosts San Antonio Bulo Bulo this Friday, for the Bolivian Championship. The team’s second game in the Libertadores takes place on Tuesday, at 7 pm (Brasília time), against Estudiantes, at the Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium, in Argentina.
The goals
At 16 minutes of the first stage, Daniel De Freitas made a great lift for Luciano Ursino. The athlete rose high and headed firmly into the right corner of goalkeeper Agustín Marchesín.
At 33 minutes into the second half, Enrique Triverio took advantage of Joel Amoroso’s cross and, inside the small area, headed the ball into the back of the net.
