Gremio's in

Gremio of Brazil advanced to the Copa Libertadores final after a 3-1 loss to Santos. Gremio will play either Boca Juniors or Cucuta Deportivo of Colombia in the final. Those two sides play on Thursday night.

Gremio is a two-time champ, having won the Copa in 1983 and 1995. In recent years, clubs like Sao Paulo and Internacional have tasted their own Copa glory but Gremio is for real and as strong as any other Brazilian team at the moment.

The Santos x Gremio match was the most exciting soccer game I've seen in 2007, and I'm including the Barca x Mardid, 3-3 draw as its competition. I officially declare the Copa Libertadores more fun that the UEFA CL
