Parque Antártica was the stage for a true green party in the semifinals of the 1996 Copa do Brasil. Palmeiras, fueled by Luxemburgo's magical football, beat Grêmio 3-1 and took a giant step towards the tournament's finals. The team that scored 102 goals once again showed its strength and superiority. Coach Luiz Felipe Scolari, with his Libertadores champion team, was unable to contain the green avalanche. Djalminha, with his genius, Rivaldo, with his skill, and Müller, with his physical strength, led the Palmeiras attack and left the Grêmio defense completely lost. Grêmio, in turn, was unable to repeat the same performances that led them to the Libertadores title. Arce, Paulo Nunes, Carlos Miguel and Jardel, who had shone so much in the continental competition, felt the pressure from Palmeiras and were unable to produce much. Palmeiras' victory was a football spectacle. Palmeiras fans left the stadium ecstatic with their team's performance. Luxemburgo's team showed that they are in a magical moment and that they are one of the favorites to win the Copa do Brasil. Watch this amazing game in its FULL version!
