Borussia Dortmund struggled during the last 45 minutes against a Monterrey that gave it their all but it wasn't enough to advance to the Quarterfinals.

We bring you the three key men of the night.
Serhou Guirassy
The French-Guinean was the man of the night, as he scored the double that meant the pass for the Dortmund team. The striker had more opportunities during the match, but the two he scored were enough to bring joy to his fans.
Jesús 'Tecatito' Corona
Rayados had an important man during the match, and although Nelson Deossa and Sergio Canales gave a great performance, the Mexican was the protagonist of the clearest plays of the team, although he fell short in the definition.
Gregor Kobel
The Swiss goalkeeper also had his moment in the spotlight during the night, as he saved a couple of important shots from Rayados that could have meant the tie. Now Dortmund will have a tough task against an unbeatable Real Madrid.

Leverkusen signs England Under-21 defender Jarell Quansah from Liverpool
LEVERKUSEN, Germany — Bayer Leverkusen has replaced former captain Jonathan Tah with Jarell Quansah from Liverpool in a club-record signing for a defender. The 22-year-old Quansah signed a contract through June 2030 and will wear Tah's former No. 4 shirt, the Bundesliga club said Wednesday. The reported fee of more than 30 million euros ($35.3 million) rising to 40 million ($47 million) with bonuses corresponds roughly with what Liverpool agreed to pay Leverkusen for Netherlands right back Jeremie Frimpong in May.

Liverpool defender Quansah signs for Bayer Leverkusen
Centre-half Jarell Quansah has joined Bayer Leverkusen from Premier League champions Liverpool for a reported club record fee, the Bundesliga side announced on Wednesday. According to British and German press, the transfer fee for the 22-year-old could go up to 40 million euros ($47 million), including 10 million euros in add-ons. Advertisement German specialist media Kicker and The Athletic also reported the inclusion of a 60-million-euros buy-back clause in the contract, which Liverpool could activate from summer 2027 to re-sign Quansah. "We are very happy to be able to sign Jarell Quansah, one of the most promising English central defenders," said Leverkusen managing director of sport Simon Rolfes. "He made a very impressive contribution to a Liverpool defence full of world-class players. Jarell will give our defence extra dynamism, tempo and strength." Quansah becomes the most expensive signing in Leverkusen's history, following on from the previous record arrival of midfielder Kerem Demirbay for 32 million euros in 2019. Advertisement The 2025 European under-21 champion with England joined Liverpool's academy as a five-year-old, and rose through the ranks before making his first-team debut in 2023. He went on to appear 58 times for the Merseysiders, winning the League Cup in 2022 and 2024, as well as the Premier League title last season. After playing second fiddle to first-choice defensive duo Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate for much of the 2024/25 campaign, Quansah arrives at Leverkusen to replace departed former captain Jonathan Tah at the heart of the Bundesliga club's defence. "The ambitious targets here were clearly explained to me during the negotiations. It's a great role and challenge for me to be part of the current Leverkusen rebuild," said Quansah. Advertisement After creating league history by winning the Bundesliga undefeated in 2024, Leverkusen endured a difficult title defence last term, finishing 13 points adrift of winners Bayern Munich. Stars of their league-and-cup double from two seasons years ago, Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong, have recently gone in the opposite direction from Quansah, joining Liverpool from Leverkusen this close-season. tba/jld/nf/iwd
