Attention River: the possible opponents for the round of 16 have already been determined

While Millonario prepares for its match against Inter Milan, Group F has already confirmed its qualifiers for the next round

Logic finally prevailed: Borussia Dortmund and Fluminense will be present in the Round of 16 of the  Club World Cup. The Germans defeated Ulsan Hyundai 1-0, while the Brazilians drew 0-0 with Mamelodi Sundowns. Both teams could face River in the next round, depending on their final position after tonight's match.

Borussia was vastly superior to its South Korean opponent, but could only win by the minimum, thanks to a goal from Swedish player Daniel Svensson. With this victory, the European team finished as the  leader of Group F with seven points and  will face the second-place team from Group E, which for now is Inter, on Tuesday, July 1 at 22:00 at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

Meanwhile, Fluminense drew 0-0 with a South African team that played a leading role due to its need for a win to advance, but was unable to change the score. With this draw, Flu finished as runner-up to the Germans with  five points and will face the first-place team from Group E, which for now is River, on Monday,  June 30 at 16:00 at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte.
