Gremio Beats Villanova

The first win the season had to be in comeback style. Gremio defeated Villanova last night by the score of 2-1. The Wildcats got an early lead but the tricolor recovered playing one of its best defensive games in recent years. Led by GK Chris Berg, Gremio held Villanova to just one goal and only a few scoring chances.
Paul tied the game finishing off a loose ball after a shot by Jon B. deflected on a Nova defender. Mauricio scored the game winning goal converting on a Penalty Kick late in the game and putting final numbers in the win, 2-1. Gremio is now 1-2-0 and moved up in the standings as Kevin pointed out prior the game, "I was really irritated by the 0-2 start. We were like all the way at the bottom, it ain't right, it ain't right" he said.
