By IANS News September 22, 2023 • 12:26 PM View: 879

Rio De Janeiro: Joao Pedro scored a brilliantly worked team goal as Gremio kept alive their Brazilian Serie A title hopes on Thursday with a 1-0 home win over fellow contenders Palmeiras.

Gremio split Palmeiras' defense open with a series of slick passes that culminated in Luis Suarez's one-touch through ball for Pedro, who lashed an angled finish into the far corner.

The hosts were reduced to 10 men in the 86th minute when Mathias Villasanti was shown a second yellow card for a bad challenge.
