Guirassy Strikes Twice to Power Dortmund Into Quarter-Finals

Borussia Dortmund are moving on to the next round of the FIFA Club World Cup after beating Monterrey 2-1 in a tough match.

The star of the game was Serhou Guirassy, who scored two goals early in the first half. His first goal came in the 14th minute after a great team play. Just ten minutes later, he scored again after Monterrey made a mistake in defence. By halftime, Dortmund were winning 2-0.

But Monterrey didn’t give up. In the second half, Germán Berterame scored with a nice header to make it 2-1. He even scored again later, but the second goal was cancelled because he was offside—thanks to a VAR check.

Monterrey kept trying to score again, but Dortmund’s goalkeeper Gregor Kobel made sure they didn’t. Dortmund stayed strong until the final whistle.
