Gremio invites TP Mazembe to play in new stadium


RIO DE JANEIRO, Dec 15, 2010 (Xinhua via COMTEX) -- Eduardo Antonini, president of Brazilian soccer club Gremio, said on Wednesday that he is willing to invite African champions TP Mazembe to play the inaugural match in their newly-built stadium, the Arena do Gremio.



The side from the Democratic Republic of Congo pulled off a huge upset by defeating Gremio's archrival Internacional 2-0 on Tuesday to reach the Club World Cup final.

Antonini said he and all Gremio fans were not shy to hide their satisfaction with Internacional's defeat.


"The team would enjoy hosting TP Mazembe in the inaugural match of his club's new stadium," he said.
