acheminer
Explanation:
Il s'agit de "route" (acheminer, faire suivre un chemin en particulier) et non "rout" (fouir et, par analogy, "virer" et "administrer une défaîte cuisante).

"To route" vient de "route" (chemin).

"To rout" vient de / se compare à "to root" (creuser/soulever les racines [avec son museau], c.-à-d "fouir").
