Argentine forward Cesar Delgado scored twice for Mexico's Monterrey in a 3-1 win over South Koreans Ulsan Hyundai on Sunday to set up a Club World Cup semi-final against European champions Chelsea. African champions Al-Ahly beat Japan's Sanfrecce Hiroshima 2-1 in blizzard-like conditions in the second quarter-final and will face Brazil's Corinthians in the last four.

Slick-passing Monterrey dominated Asian Champions League winners Ulsan in snow-sprinkled Toyota and showed to enough to suggest they will be no pushovers for Chelsea. "If we can play like we did today against Chelsea we will have a chance," Monterrey coach Victor Vucetich told reporters. Jesus Corona opened the scoring after nine minutes, finishing a superb three-man move from close range before his back-heel fell for Delgado to tap home in the 77th minute. Delgado smashed in his second seven minutes later to kill off the game, in which Hawk-Eye's goal-line technology was being used for the first time, although Ulsan grabbed a late consolation through Lee Keun-ho.
