São Paulo Dominates Gremio de Porto Alegre in a Thrilling Match: James Rodríguez Shines

São Paulo defeated Gremio de Porto Alegre 2-0 in one of the most attractive matches of matchday 28 of the Brasileirao, where two Copa Libertadores champions and two historic players in world football came face to face.

In the run-up to the match, the São Paulo fans had sent a clear message to coach Dorival Júnior and it was the start of the Colombian James Rodríguez, who had just had a great performance with the Colombian National Team in the Qualifiers for the World Cup.

Dorivál listened to the fans and the Colombian did not disappoint him, because in just 21 minutes he made Morumbi explode with a magical assist on a corner kick that ended in a goal thanks to a header from Michel Araújo.

After Araújo’s goal, São Paulo took over the game and did not stop attacking Gremio, who looked unknown and had great difficulty recovering the ball.

Around the 67th minute, James Rodríguez started a counterattack in favor of his team, but was abruptly cut off by a Gremio attacker. However, the play continued its course and the Colombian accompanied the play, being key by receiving a ball and assisting with Pablo Maia had a lot of class, who sent him to save the ball.

At minute 70 and amidst applause, the Colombian retired, little by little gaining the affection of the fans with good football. What’s next for James in Brazil will be Palmeiras next Wednesday at the Allianz Parque.
