Ghana international Francis Amuzu delivered a scintillating performance as Grêmio FBPA secured a commanding 3-0 victory over fierce rivals Sport Club Internacional in the first leg of the Campeonato Gaúcho Final.

The 26-year-old winger found the back of the net in a high-stakes encounter that lived up to its billing, producing a performance full of pace, confidence and attacking intent. His influence on the game did not go unnoticed, as he was named Man of the Match after tormenting Internacional’s defence throughout the night.

‎Amuzu’s goal helped Grêmio take firm control of the tie ahead of the second leg, placing the club in a strong position to lift the state championship title.

For the former Anderlecht man, it could mark a significant milestone in his career. Having recently made the move to Brazil, Amuzu now stands just one match away from winning his first trophy in the country.

The emphatic result also underlines his growing importance to Grêmio’s attacking setup, with supporters already warming to his direct style and eye for goal.

‎All eyes will now turn to the return leg, where Grêmio will look to finish the job,y and where Amuzu could cap a memorable start to life in Brazil with silverware.
