German aim
In the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Monterrey raised a game from you to you to Dortmund. Rayados was not overwhelmed, nor surpassed in the tactical. What inclined the balance in the end was Dortmund’s offensive talent, which did not fail in the goal.
The 0-0 barely lasted 14 minutes, which needed Serhou Guirassy to control at the first touch to the area and back to goal for Karim Adeyemi, which also first and cheating the defenders returned it to ‘9’. He did not forgive Guirassy only against Esteban Andrada.
Monterrey replied, who never crouched his head. A ‘Tecatito’ shot crashed into Gregor Kobel’s post; The Colombian Nelson Deossa took advantage of the reject to direct a shot from outside the strong but centered, easy for the German goalkeeper.
Looking for the tie, Gerardo Arteaga lost a ball in attack that fell to Adeyemi, who rode the entire right wing, entered the area and after attracting Mexican defenders, he was delivered to Guirassy again for the double of the French striker.
In 24 minutes of the game, Andrada had already fit more goals than in the previous 270. However, the Argentine goalkeeper was providential to keep the Flame del Monterrey on. Guirassy had two very clear occasions for the triplet. In the first, the defense was anticipated, in the second Andrada stopped a shot to mouth.
Germans submitted
The Germans went to rest with 2-0, leaving Monterrey very touched. But far from sinking, the Mexicans jumped into the field to bite, looking for the goal that put them in the tie.
It didn’t take anything to arrive. It was in 48, following a center to the area by the left wing that finished forced Érick Aguirre, in a header that became assistance so that the Argentine Germán Berterame, also with his head, marked the one that would ultimately be the only one for Monterrey.
The Rayados went completely to Borussia Dortmund, with a drip of occasions, most ‘Tecatito’, little successful for the goal but left everything in the field. And Berterame was able to repeat the double he signed against Urawa, with a goal in 65 that did not go up to the scoreboard outside.
The Dortmund felt the danger so closely that he turned to the trade to sleep the game. After all, they were warned: Inter Milan and Manchester City had already fallen to Flamengo and Al-Hilal, respectively, in these eighths.
In addition, the passage of the minutes began to weigh on the legs of the Mexican players, who had made an immense effort.
About was the Spanish defender Sergio Ramos of becoming a “scratched” hero with a header already in the added time that was brushing the post, with Kobel doing the statue. It was one of the last sparks of Monterrey, who tried the deed until the last sigh.
