Guirassy brace powers Borussia Dortmund through to quarter-finals
PA Media/dpa London Borussia Dortmund will face Real Madrid in the Club World Cup quarter-finals after a narrow 2-1 win over Monterrey. Serhou Guirassy opened scoring for the German club with a right-footed shot from 12 yards out in the 14th minute following an assist from Karim Adeyemi. Adeyemi turned provider again as he set up Guirassy less than 10 minutes later after breaking free from Monterray's Julian Ryerson and sliding a square pass to his teammate. Dortmund could not add to their tally after that, although Guirassy squandered two good chances to complete his hat-trick before half-time. German Berterame pulled one back for Monterrey shortly after half-time, but it was not enough to spark a full comeback for the Mexican club. Jobe Bellingham will miss the upcoming match against Real, and a reunion with his brother Jude, due to suspension after picking up a second yellow card of the tournament in the 28th minute. Monterrey dominated the second half with 59 percent possession but squandered several chances to level the score, including a header from Sergio Ramos that went wide in stoppage time. Guirassy said the match had been 'difficult'. 'They are a great team. We had a good first half; it got a bit harder in the second,' he told 'We were quite tough from a mindset perspective. I should have scored at least three goals today, but the most important thing is the victory. 'It was a good experience. I like to play against players like Sergio Ramos. He is a good guy. Against Real Madrid, I expect another tough match. We will be prepared for them.'

(AP Photo/Brynn Anderson) Jobe Bellingham is suspended for the Club World Cup quarterfinals after picking up a yellow card in Borussia Dortmund's victory against Monterrey, meaning he will miss the chance to face his brother, Jude, and Real Madrid in the next round. Dortmund plays Madrid at MetLife Stadium on Saturday, but midfielder Jobe will serve a one match suspension for his second yellow card of the tournament. He was previously booked in the win against Ulsan HD in the group stage. Advertisement The clash between Dortmund and Madrid would have been a proud moment for the Bellingham family, showcasing the rapid rise of the brothers, who were both developed at Birmingham's academy. Jude Bellingham left Birmingham for Dortmund in 2020 at the age of 17 and has gone on to establish himself as one of the world's top players, securing a move to Madrid three years later for a fee that could rise to $139 million. He has already won the Spanish league title and the Champions League with Madrid and is also a key figure for England. Jobe moved from Birmingham to Sunderland in 2023. After helping the team to promotion to the Premier League last season, he followed in his brother's footsteps by signing for Dortmund last month.

Official: Real Madrid to face Bundesliga giants in FIFA Club World Cup quarterfinals
Real Madrid booked their place in the quarterfinals of the FIFA Club World Cup thanks to a narrow 1-0 victory over Juventus. It was a gritty game for Los Blancos, with Gonzalo Garcia's 54th minute header becoming the only difference between the two sides. Advertisement With Real Madrid's win, many expected Los Blancos to take on Monterrey in the quarterfinal as it is now home to defensive legend Sergio Ramos. Ramos himself was reportedly hoping to face his former club in the quarterfinals. Real Madrid to face Borussia Dortmund in quarterfinals Unfortunately, Monterrey and Ramos' hopes of facing Real Madrid in the quarterfinals are now dead in the water following the club's defeat in the Round of 16 stage. The Mexican outfit lost to Borussia Dortmund 2-1, with two goals from Serhou Guirassy making a huge difference, despite German Berterame's early second half goal. Serhou Guirassy will be a major thorn for the Real Madrid defence. (Photo by) Advertisement Thanks to the win, Dortmund have also booked their place in the quarterfinals, where they will take on Real Madrid. This will be a rematch of the 2023/24 campaign's UEFA Champions League final, where Real Madrid were able to clinch their 15th UCL title. Dortmund, though, are heading into this game on the back of stellar form, having managed a tremendous turnaround during the backend of last season. Even in the Club World Cup, the Black and Yellows have gone from strength to strength after a dismal performance against Fluminense in the opening game. Not too long ago, Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen were humbled by Dortmund in a 4-2 scoreline. It now remains to be seen whether or not the Spanish tactician can exact revenge on the Black and Yellows.

🎥Guirassy sends Dortmund flying, but Ramos' header in the 91st minute...😱
Serhou Guirassy was the star of the night: the Guinean striker scored a brace in the first 24 minutes, giving Borussia Dortmund the qualification for the quarterfinals of the Club World Cup. First with a left-footed shot into the corner after an exchange with Adeyemi, then with a central insertion and precise touch always on assist from number 27. Monterrey suffered the blow, struggling to contain the German accelerations and risking capitulation. In the second half, however, the music changed. The Mexicans reopened the challenge at 48' with a winning header from Germán Berterame and from there on it was a long chase, with Dortmund crushed in their own half. Kobel was decisive in at least three occasions and allowed his team to defend the result, until Sergio Ramos' header at 90'+2 that finished just a few millimeters wide. 📊 The numbers say balance, but... Monterrey dominated possession (59% against 41%), but Borussia Dortmund shot more (20 total shots against 10) and hit the target in half of the occasions. The cross data (14 to 10 for the Germans) highlights the greater offensive pressure in the first part of the game, the one in which Guirassy scored twice. Advertisement Yellow cards were six per side, confirming a very intense but correct match. No expulsions, although Jobe Bellingham received a heavy warning: being cautioned, he will miss the match against Real Madrid, his brother Jude's team. Easy, then, to understand the reason for Jobe's disappointment when he realizes that the referee has the yellow card in hand. ⚔️ Now there's Real Madrid The success projects Dortmund to the quarterfinals, where they will face a favored but still Bellingham-less Real Madrid. For Monterrey, there's the bitter taste of a missed comeback. The performance in the second half and the journey in this World Cup are still a reason for pride for the Mexican club, which has surprised and put in difficulty two European big clubs like Inter and - precisely - Dortmund. The yellows, on the other hand, are preparing for the most difficult challenge, the rematch of the Champions League final lost two years ago at Wembley.
