24 degrees – the Black & Yellows looking forward to Atlanta
It was a step forward. 'With the ball, definitely,' said Julian Brandt in an interview with BVB-TV, going on to add: 'The big flaw was our finishing.' It had been very different on Saturday in the 4-3 win against Sundowns. While the chances created corresponded to 1.72 expected goals, clinical finishing resulted in four goals, a narrow 4-3 win and three important points. The opposite was true against Ulsan: Daniel Svensson's goal in the 36th minute was enough for a 1-0 win and the three points needed to win the group. The quality of the chances, resulting from 28 shots on goal to 3, should have led to 3.42 BVB goals. 'We could have put ourselves in a more comfortable position earlier,' said Brandt. 'Nevertheless, the lads did well, especially in thwarting counterattacks. We won the group and we're in the round of 16. That's all that matters.' Niko Kovac took a similar view at the press conference. 'I'm glad we managed to create significantly more chances than in the first two games,' said the head coach. 'We controlled the game and created good opportunities. In the second half, the temperatures contributed to us trying to wind the game down. All in all, we can be satisfied. We improved compared to the first two games. Now we're in first place, have an extra day to rest and then travel to Atlanta to play in a beautiful stadium.' Inline Image First place means one more day of recovery and preparation time. 'Especially when it comes to the strain of travelling,' says Brandt. 'We're always flying back and forth for a day. Another plus point is that after two matches at midday and one at 15:00, Borussia Dortmund can now avoid the intense heat. Kick-off in Atlanta is at 21:00 local time. The forecast is for 24 degrees Celsius when BVB take on CF Monterrey, who finished second in Group E, on Tuesday evening (Wednesday, 03:00 CEST). The Mexicans drew both their matches against Inter Milan (1-1) and River Plate (0-0) and won their final group match 4-0 against Urawa Reds from Japan. Three goals were scored between the 30th and 39th minutes. Advertisement On the flight back from Cincinnati to their base camp in Fort Lauderdale, the Borussia players watched the two games in the other group 'and then followed the final minutes of the game together in the hotel,' sporting director Sebastian Kehl told kicker: 'Now it's onto Monterrey on Tuesday evening in Atlanta, a team Borussia Dortmund have never played against before. We're up for it, we're taking on the challenge – and we're determined to progress to the next round.' Daniel Svensson believes the team can do it: 'We have to try to keep the tempo high throughout the game.' Given that Atlanta will have temperatures more akin to those in Europe, playing at the usual tempo shouldn't be a problem...

Europe faces first summer heatwave as temperatures soar
MARSEILLE: Sweating Europeans braced on Saturday for the first heatwave of the northern hemisphere summer, as climate change pushes the world's fastest-warming continent's thermometers increasingly into the red. Temperatures are set to rise to 37 degrees Celsius (99 degrees Fahrenheit) in Rome, driving the Eternal City's many tourists and Catholic pilgrims to the Vatican alike towards the Italian capital's some 2,500 public fountains for refreshment. With residents of the southern port city of Marseille expected to have to cope with temperatures flirting with 40C (104F), authorities in France's second-largest city ordered public swimming pools to be made free of charge to help residents beat the Mediterranean heat. Two-thirds of Portugal will be on high alert on Sunday for extreme heat and forest fires with 42C (108F) expected in the capital Lisbon, while visitors to -- and protesters against -- Amazon tycoon Jeff Bezos's Friday wedding in Venice likewise sweltered under the summer sun. 'I try not to think about it, but I drink a lot of water and never stay still, because that's when you get sunstroke,' Sriane Mina, an Italian student, told AFPTV on Friday in Venice. Meanwhile Spain, which has in past years seen a series of deadly summer blazes ravaging the Iberian peninsula, is expecting peak temperatures in excess of 40C (104F) across most of the country from Sunday. Scientists have long warned that humanity's burning of fossil fuels is heating up the world with disastrous consequences for the environment, with Europe's ever-hotter and increasingly common blistering summer heatwaves a direct result of that warming. With peaks of 39C (102F) expected in Naples and Palermo, Sicily has ordered a ban on outdoor work in the hottest hours of the day, as has the Liguria region in northern Italy. The country's trade unions are campaigning to extend the measure to other parts of the country. The heatwave comes hot on the heels of a series of tumbling records for extreme heat, including Europe's hottest March ever, according to the EU's Copernicus climate monitor. As a result of the planet's warming, extreme weather events including hurricanes, droughts, floods and heatwaves like this weekend's have become more frequent and intense, scientists warn. By some estimates 2024, the hottest year in recorded history so far, saw worldwide disasters which cost more than $300 billion.
