It could have been a win, it should have been a tie, but it ended up as one of the most frustrating losses of the year. Gremio 5-game winning streak came to an end on a 4-3 defeat in the hands of Velez Sarsfield. The seesaw battle started when Mauricio put Gremio up 1-0. Velez responded tying the game shortly after. Gremio went ahead 2-1 when birthday boy Jon Elison finished off a great play by Pete. Velez tied again, 2-2.
Gremio went up 3-2 on what appeared to be the game-winning goal by Paul but Velez scored on a lucky bounce to tie the games once more. 3-3.
When the time was up, the ref let the game continue only to see Velez scored one more goal and winning the game 4-3. A great effort by Gremio, but an undeserved brutal loss.
