Gremio reaches Copa do Brasil final

Rio De Janeiro, Nov 8 (UNI) Gremio advanced to the Copa do Brasil final with a 1-1 draw at Atletico Mineiro, securing a 3-1 aggregate victory despite an early scare.

Holding a 2-0 cushion from the first leg in Porto Alegre, Gremio started tentatively at the Arena MRV in Belo Horizonte. Former Atletico Madrid left-back Renan Lodi unlocked the visitors'
five-man defense to put the hosts ahead with a 26th-minute strike on Saturday.
The goal sprung the visitors into action and Carlos Vinicius equalized by latching onto Erick Noriega's delivery from a set piece with a 38th-minute header, according to Xinhua.
Atletico Mineiro was forced to play the last 10 minutes with a numerical disadvantage after Vitao was shown a straight red card for a rash challenge on former Barcelona forward Martin Braithwaite.
Gremio will face either Palmeiras or Vasco da Gama in the final in Brasilia on December 6.
