PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil (Reuters) - Gremio’s dismal start to the Serie A season continued on Saturday when they drew 0-0 at home to mid-table Internacional in the big Porto Alegre derby.

The result means that Gremio, for whom goalkeeper Gabriel Chapeco was their best player, have still not won any of their opening nine games and remain at the foot of Brazil's 20-team Serie A with three points.
