[Gremio and Flamengo starred in a close game](https://www.tycsports.com/amp/copa-libertadores/var-y-polemica-en-gremio-flamengo-el-primer-capitulo-de-la-otra-semifinal-de-la-libertadores-20191002.html)

Flamengo was superior to Gremio in his visit to Porto Alegre. Especially in the first half, in which the visiting team came to convert twice, although both conquests had to be subsequently canceled at the request of the VAR by the referee Pitana and the teams went to rest without opening the scoreboard.

In the second half Gremio was more aggressive and came to the rival goal with danger, but the goalkeeper Diego Alves, of great performance, avoided the fall of his fence. The opening of the marker would come about 24 minutes of the second half with a header from Bruno Henrique.

With the goal of advantage (which as a visitor has more value) Flamengo won in peace and became dominant again. So much so that soon after he converted again, but again the goal was canceled by an advanced position (this time without the intervention of the VAR).

It seemed that Flamengo was leaving with a triumph of Porto Alegre; however, at the end of the game Pepe pushed a Maicon center to tie the game.

It was 1 to 1, a result that Flamengo feels good in the face of the rematch that will be played within twenty days in his stadium, despite the bitter taste that leaves him to be tied on time.
