Helluva a Win

Mauricio netted the game winner with less than a minute left

No subs, no problem. Gremio displayed one of the best outings in recent years defeating Chi City Chi Rats by the score of 2-1 last night. A very shorthanded squad was missing Sory, Evan, Brendan and Jon B. With no subs for the entire game, the tricolor found itself playing against a bunch of young guys and plenty of subs but Gremio stepped up. A long ball and a tricky header flick put Gremio down 1-0 but the response came quickly. Paul took a corner kick and found Pete in front of the net for the tying mark. Pete continues his solid play and scoring streak, netting a goal per game. Late in the game and running out of legs, Gremio was content with a tie but a great counter attack set up by Rick and Paul ended up with a poor clear and Mauricio ripped home the game winner with one minute left in the game. GK Chris Berg was the man of the match with a dozen of great saves and Kevin and Jon Elison get honorable mention for their solid and steady effort on defense. Gremio will be back in action next Tuesday versus U Penn at 6:09pm.
