Grêmio eliminated from Copa Libertadores by Bolívar at home

Summary

Grêmio's Copa Libertadores campaign ended on July 30, 2026, after a 1-0 home defeat to Bolívar at the Arena. Following a 3-2 loss in La Paz, Grêmio needed to win by at least two goals to advance. The team struggled to capitalize on possession, and a red card incident late in the match further complicated their efforts. Bolívar's victory marks only their second time eliminating a Brazilian team in Conmebol competitions. Bolivar will face São Paulo in the next round, while Grêmio shifts focus to the Copa do Brasil.
