With a show from Guirassy, Dortmund managed to get a ticket in 1/8

The next obstacle for the Westphalians is Real Madrid, against whom they will be called upon to overcome in order to get a ticket to the semi-finals, on Saturday.

Serhou Guirassy was the great hero of BVB in his win about Rayados Monterrey in 1/16 round 2-1 .

Thus, the erratic Borussia Dortmund this year seemed consistent in the appointment with the qualification to the "8". Now the next obstacle for the Westphalians is Real Madrid, against whom they will be called upon to overcome in order to get a ticket to the semi-finals, on Saturday. Although the "Westphalians" of Niko Kovac found it difficult against the team of Sergio Ramos, they managed to prevail in the end with a score of 2-1 and celebrate their qualification to the "8" of the institution.

International forward Serhu Guirassy, the child born in France to immigrant parents (they arrived there from Guinea), was the one who provided the solution. He scored two goals, while missing other opportunities to score more goals. In the 14th and 30th minutes, the young central striker of the German team laid the foundations for his team to reach victory.


In the second half, the Mexican club reduced the distances and stepped on the gas to add suspense to the duel. In the 48th minute, Berderame reduced it to 2-1. However, this was not enough to equalize against Borussia Dortmund. Despite the opportunities it created, Monterrey did not convert them into goals and so the final score remained in favor of Dortmund until the final whistle.


Niko Kovac


Meanwhile, Dortmund coach Niko Kovac was particularly happy about his team's qualification: "We are very happy. We showed determination, passion and managed to win and qualify.."
