Unseen hero's penalty save keeps Grêmio steady against Remo | OneFootball

Weverton saved a penalty in the 42nd minute to secure Grêmio's 0-0 draw against Remo. The goalkeeper's interventions steadied the hosts throughout.

Early on, he set the tone by smothering Yago Pikachu from close range after Mayk's cross (4.).

He then guessed right from the spot to palm away Alef Manga's effort (42.), a decisive stop that kept Imortal level heading towards the interval.

After the restart, he tipped Pikachu's long range strike over (60.) and stayed clean under pressure, punching clear and claiming high balls as Leão Azul chased set pieces. He finished with four saves, three from shots in the box, underlining his command of the area.

Even after Remo were reduced to ten when Pikachu received a second yellow (68.), Weverton's handling remained assured and his distribution calm, helping Tricolor Gaúcho manage territory and see the tie out.

Tricolor Gaúcho visit City Torque in the CONMEBOL Sudamericana next, while Leão Azul host Vasco da Gama in the league.
