Monterrey secured their spot in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup Round of 16 after defeating Urawa Reds with a decisive 4-0 score at Rose Bowl Stadium, Pasadena, California.

The Mexican side showed complete dominance — Nelson Deossa opened the scoring in the 30th minute with a spectacular long-range shot. German Berterame extended the lead four minutes later, before Jesus Corona added a third goal in the 39th minute.
