Kenyan football fans craving high-octane football drama were treated to a thrilling FIFA Club World Cup 2025 spectacle as Borussia Dortmund edged Monterrey 2-1 at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. The win sets up a sizzling quarter-final showdown against five-time CWC champions Real Madrid in New York this Saturday—a rematch of the 2024 UEFA Champions League final that still lingers in fans’ memories.
For football lovers in Kenya who passionately follow European and global tournaments, this upcoming tie promises to be pure box-office entertainment.
Serhou Guirassy: Dortmund’s Goal Machine
Guinean striker Serhou Guirassy was the hero of the night, bagging a brilliant brace that propelled Dortmund into the next round. Dortmund, unbeaten in ten games heading into the clash, wasted no time asserting dominance. Just 14 minutes in, Guirassy latched onto Karim Adeyemi’s classy back-heel pass to slot home past Monterrey’s Esteban Andrada.
Only ten minutes later, the lethal forward doubled the advantage, again set up by Adeyemi’s sharp vision. Guirassy was mere inches from a hat-trick before the half-hour mark, narrowly missing Jobe Bellingham’s dangerous cross.
For Kenyan fans familiar with the Bundesliga and Guirassy’s growing reputation, his scoring prowess continues to reinforce his status as one of Africa’s top striking talents.
Monterrey’s Brave Fightback
Despite Dortmund’s fast start, Monterrey refused to roll over. Mexican winger Jesús Corona rattled the woodwork with a cross-shot moments after Dortmund’s opener, and Nelson Deossa forced a strong save from Gregor Kobel.
Three minutes into the second half, Germán Berterame headed in his third goal of the tournament to breathe life into Monterrey’s hopes. A disallowed goal for marginal offside kept the Mexican side from forcing extra time, but they departed the Club World Cup with pride after an unbeaten group stage (W1, D2).
A European Blockbuster Awaits
With the victory secured, Dortmund fans—and Kenyan neutrals eager for a footballing spectacle—can now look forward to the quarter-final clash against Real Madrid in New York. This match is not merely a Club World Cup fixture; it’s a continuation of the gripping rivalry from last season’s UEFA Champions League final.
