📹 Grêmio lose to Alianza Lima in Sula play-off first leg, in trouble
In Peru, Grêmio lost to Alianza Lima 2-0 on Wednesday (16th) in the first leg of the Conmebol Sudamericana 2025 round of 16 playoffs. The first half was more balanced, with ball possession close to 50% and real chances for both teams. The Tricolor Gaúcho threatened with André, 10 seconds into the game, with Alysson (18') and with Edenilson (35'). The Peruvians, on the other hand, attacked with Guerrero and Castillo, twice, with the second attempt being saved by Serrote with a sliding tackle. But after the break, Alianza Lima turned opportunities into goals, and Grêmio simply watched. At 13 minutes, Castillo dribbled in front of Serrote near the byline and passed to the small area. After a scramble, a ball hitting the crossbar, and a miraculous save by Volpi, Gentile (13') took the rebound to open the scoring. Wasting no time, Alianza Lima extended the lead when Castillo (15') won the ball against Serrote, cut to the middle, and shot into Volpi's left corner. Unable to finish on the opponent's goal, Grêmio defended as best as they could to avoid further damage and complicate their fight for the round of 16.🚦 What it means With the defeat, Grêmio will need to win by three goals next Wednesday (23rd) at the Arena to advance to the round of 16. If the Gaúcho team wins by two goals, the spot will be decided on penalties. The Peruvians can lose by up to one goal and still advance. Before that, the Tricolor Imortal faces Vasco at São Januário on Saturday (19th) for the 15th round of the Brasileirão. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
