VIDEO: Luis Suarez Bags Brace, Scores Panenka Penalty In Final Gremio Game 

Luis Suarez is farewelling himself at Gremio in grand fashion, with the Uruguayan – who is expected to head for Inter Miami – bagging a brace in his final appearance.

The veteran striker, who has scored 29 goals in 54 games, is ending a fruitful run in Brazilian sport. The 36-year-old has said that his chronic knee issues may force him to retire, but he and former Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi are preparing for one last MLS challenge.

Prior to heading to the United States, Suarez brought the curtain down on his stint at Gremio by netting twice in a 3-2 victory over Fluminense. His first of the game was a typical Suarez strike, as he beat the offside trap and raced through on goal to round the goalkeeper and slide into an empty net.
