Dortmund meet Monterrey in the Club World Cup knockout stage, fueled by contrasting trajectories. The German side dominates with 8 wins in 9 games, including clean sheets in 3 of their last 4 matches. Monterrey, managed by ex-NYCFC coach Domenec Torrent, counter with momentum from a 4-0 rout of Urawa Red Diamonds and threats like forward German Berterame. American talents Gio Reyna (Dortmund) and academy product Cole Campbell add local intrigue in Atlanta. Monterrey’s veteran defender Sergio Ramos anchors their defense, but Dortmund’s pressing and Serhou Guirassy’s scoring streak may tip the scales. A test of European structure versus Mexican flair.
