NEW YORK, July 1 (Xinhua) -- Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid will clash in the FIFA Club World Cup quarterfinals after eliminating Monterrey and Juventus in the round of 16 on Tuesday.

In Atlanta, Guinea international striker Serhou Guirassy struck two first-half goals as Dortmund secured a 2-1 win over Monterrey.

Guirassy opened the scoring in the 14th minute when he played a slick one-two with Karim Adeyemi before side-footing a low effort that beat Argentine goalkeeper Esteban Andrada at his near post.

The Mexican side was undone once more by the Adeyemi-Guirassy combination in the 24th minute as the center-forward caressed a first-time shot past Andrada after Adeyemi's layoff.

Former Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos had a gilt-edged chance to equalize in the 91st minute but headed inches wide following Erick Aguirre's cross.

The result means Dortmund will face Real Madrid in New Jersey on Saturday for a place in the last four while Monterrey bows out.

"I think I could have scored at least three goals but I'm happy to have helped the team win," Guirassy told broadcaster DAZN.

"It was difficult, they are a good team with experienced players. I think we had a very good first half; the second half was a little bit harder, but our mindset was tough."

The 29-year-old said the Bundesliga club would be ready for the challenge of confronting the 15-time European champions.

"I expect a very tough game. Real Madrid want to go through so it will be a tough game but we will be prepared," Guirassy added.

Ramos, who joined Monterrey on a free transfer in February, praised his teammates and said his side deserved to advance.

"Everyone who saw tonight's game realizes that this team gave its all," the 39-year-old former Spain international said.

"Things sometimes don't go the way you want them to. We had tons of chances, we didn't know how to take advantage of them like in other games. It's sad to leave a Club World Cup, but today everyone feels proud of how we represented Rayados."

In Miami, Gonzalo Garcia continued his prolific scoring form as Real Madrid edged to a 1-0 victory over Juventus.

Garcia broke the deadlock in the 54th minute when he soared to meet Trent Alexander-Arnold's cross with a powerful header past Michele Di Gregorio.

The 21-year-old, who had never started for Real Madrid before this competition, has now scored three times and provided one assist in the United States.

"I'm very happy with my goal but especially with the way we fought as a team to reach the quarterfinals," said the Real Madrid youth academy graduate.

"I always try to be in the area and in a position to score, whether that be with my head, my knee or whatever."

Real Madrid dominated for long periods and could have put the result beyond doubt long before the final whistle if not for the heroics of Di Gregorio, who made 11 saves.

The Spanish club also had Kylian Mbappe back from illness, with the forward coming on in the 68th minute for his first appearance of the tournament.

Juventus manager Igor Tudor said his team had suffered in the sweltering South Florida heat.

"It's disappointing but we have to keep in mind the quality of the opponent, the conditions and the tiredness of the players," the former Croatia international defender said.

"At the end of the match I had 10 players who wanted to come off. But that was impossible. Everyone was exhausted." ■
