Luis Suarez continues to be active with Gremio in a highly contested match where the two clubs had an important meeting. However, things became tense after a cross between Reinaldo and defender Gustavo Gomez. Something that was carried to the locker room. Gremio beat Palmeiras 1-0 this Thursday night at home on matchday 24 of the Brasileirão with a goal from player Joao Pedro.

 

But before that, at halftime, there were loud crossings in the tunnel area towards the locker rooms. Reinaldo, from Gremio, argued with Gustavo Gómez, until Suárez appeared and confronted the Paraguayan to defend his teammate: “Go ahead, idiot. "Go inside, sell smoke." This phrase was reminiscent of what Lionel Messi did with Weghorst in the 2022 World Cup after the match between Argentina and the Netherlands.

 

"Go inside and sell smoke," the captain of the Porto Alegre team shouted angrily. Of course, the defender who once knew how to be very close to Boca seemed determined to fight. Let us remember that he had equalized in the 96th minute of the second half, but his shot hit the post. Consequently, Palmeiras, who wants to get closer to the leader Botafogo, could not add even a point.

 

Luis Suarez new record

The Uruguayan striker achieved an important record at the age of 36 with his new club. In his 20 games in the main Brazilian soccer tournament, the Uruguayan scored seven goals and this Thursday, he scored six assists. In this way, Suárez has become the footballer who has given the most assists in the 2023 Brazilian Championship. His club is in the so-called G-4 of the tournament, that is, it is among the four that qualify directly for the next edition of the Copa Libertadores of America. At the moment, the player still has not defined his future, but his retirement is not an option after recent rumors.
