BVB edge Mamelodi 4-3 thriller, Jobe scores debut goal, heatwave 🥵
After a nightmare start, Borussia Dortmund regains its composure and legs, narrowly overcoming South Africa's Mamelodi Sundowns 4-3 to secure their first victory at the Club World Cup. In Cincinnati, where the heat played a match of its own, the Black and Yellows had to sweat more than expected. But among the protagonists, there's a new (and familiar) face: Jobe Bellingham, Jude's brother, found his first joy in the yellow and black shirt. 🤯 Everything happens in the first 45' The game heats up immediately: in the 10th minute, Lucas Ribeiro takes advantage of a lapse in the German defense and with a precise left-footed shot beats Kobel, putting Mamelodi ahead. A shocking start for Dortmund, but they respond immediately. Just five minutes later, Felix Nmecha scores the equalizer, capitalizing on a mistake by the Mamelodi goalkeeper during the build-up. The turnaround comes at the half-hour mark: Serhou Guirassy, in top scoring form, rises above everyone on a cross from the right and makes it 2-1. For him, that's 10 goals in the last 8 games: a true goal machine. 🎯 Jobe scores right away: fans go wild Just before halftime, the most anticipated moment: Jobe Bellingham, born in 2005 and Jude's younger brother, makes it 3-1 with a poacher's finish from the center of the box. Emotional celebration, arms to the sky and a kiss towards the fans: in the American stands, 'Hey Jude,' the chant of the Black and Yellow fans dedicated to his brother now at Real Madrid, transforms into 'Hey Jobe.' Talent runs in the family. 🥵 Scorching second half, heart-stopping finale In the second half, the script remains unpredictable. In the 58th minute, an own goal by Mudau—unlucky in deflecting a Svensson cross—gives the Germans their fourth goal. But Mamelodi doesn't give up: three minutes later, Rayners narrows the gap with a fine header from a set piece. Dortmund seems in control, but in the 90th minute Lebo Motiba stuns the Germans with a goal to make it 4-3, throwing everything open again. In the final minutes, Mamelodi tries for a sensational comeback, but it remains unfinished. Kovac is furious. 🌡️ Under the Cincinnati sun, Dortmund holds on Beyond the scoreline, the match had another major protagonist: the scorching heat. Dortmund's bench stayed sheltered in the locker room for most of the first half, only returning to the field after the break, armed with umbrellas to shield themselves from the relentless sun. In the end, mission accomplished for Terzić and his men. But the defense wobbles and the thermometer goes crazy: something more will be needed in the next round. Meanwhile, Jobe takes center stage. And the future. Advertisement This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇮🇹 here. 📸 Michael Reaves - 2025 Getty Images

Bellingham strikes as Dortmund sink Sundowns
Borussia Dortmund's English midfielder Jobe Bellingham celebrates scoring his team's third goal against the Sundowns (Federico PARRA) Jobe Bellingham netted his first Borussia Dortmund goal in a thrilling 4-3 win over Mamelodi Sundowns at the Club World Cup on Saturday. The English midfielder, who this month followed older brother Jude's footsteps in joining the German side, started for the first time for Dortmund. Advertisement Sundowns of South Africa took a surprise early lead but Dortmund hit back strongly to triumph in sweltering conditions in Cincinnati at the TQL Stadium and move top of Group F. Dortmund coach Niko Kovac had claimed teams from the "south" had an advantage because of the heat, and the Sundowns 11th minute opener appeared to confirm his fears. Lucas Ribeiro's fine solo goal put the CAF Champions League runners-up ahead, with the Brazilian charging forward from his own half before beating Gregor Kobel. However Sundowns goalkeeper Ronwen Williams handed Dortmund their equaliser on a plate, passing the ball straight to Felix Nmecha, who stroked home. Advertisement Both stoppers made good saves in an end-to-end clash before Dortmund claimed the lead through striker Serhou Guirassy. Dortmund won the ball high up the pitch and Julian Brandt crossed for the Guinea international to score with a fine leap and header, continuing his fine form this season. Bellingham, who joined earlier in June from Sunderland for 33 million euros ($37 million), netted Dortmund's third just before the break. Williams parried a cross into his path and after controlling on his chest, Bellingham drilled home. His brother Jude signed for Dortmund five years ago, before joining Spanish giants Real Madrid in 2023. Advertisement "Hey Jobe," sang Dortmund fans, adapting the Beatles classic "Hey Jude" which they used to sing to Jude Bellingham. Dortmund were toothless in their opening draw against Fluminense but grabbed their fourth when Kuliso Mudau turned into his own net as he tried to cut out a cross. Three minutes later Iqraam Rayners pulled one back as the Sundowns, who have won the last eight South African league titles, refused to give up. Rayners, who netted Sundowns' winner in the first match against Ulsan HD, hit the post with a header and reacted quickly to nod home the rebound. Portuguese coach Miguel Cardoso's side pulled back another through Lebo Mothiba in the 90th minute, forcing Dortmund to sweat through six minutes of stoppage time before they were able to celebrate their victory. Later Saturday in the other Group F clash Fluminense take on Ulsan at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford. rbs/ea

🧐 During the match?! BVB substitutes stay in the dressing room
This is something we've never experienced before. During the entire first half, the BVB substitutes sat in the locker room during the Club World Cup match against Mamelodi Sundowns. But why? You can sign up for DAZN to watch every game of the FIFA Club World Cup for free. The reason is as simple as it is curious: In the TQL Stadium in Cincinnati, the guys were supposed to protect themselves from the sweltering heat in Ohio. Currently, it's a scorching 31 degrees Celsius – understandable that even professionals can't take it after a while. Advertisement Let's just hope that Nico Kovač doesn't get a sunstroke in the meantime. The coach had to stay outside out of necessity. At least he's been able to celebrate four goals from his Borussians so far – maybe he doesn't even notice the sun anymore. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
