In a thrilling encounter in the Asian Champions League Two, Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr secured a 2-1 victory against FC Goa on Wednesday, maintaining their flawless record in the tournament. Despite the absence of their star player Cristiano Ronaldo, who remained in Riyadh for rest, Al-Nassr showcased their depth and resilience. Brazilian winger Angelo Gabriel and Haroune Camara netted crucial goals to give the Saudi side the lead, while Brison Fernandes managed to pull one back for Goa, though it wasn’t enough to alter the outcome. This victory marked Al-Nassr’s third consecutive win in Asia’s second-tier continental club championship. Meanwhile, in the AFC Champions League Elite, Al-Hilal continued their dominant run with a 3-1 triumph over Qatar’s Al-Sadd. Turkish midfielder Yusuf Akcicek opened the scoring in the 25th minute, followed by a goal from former Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly just before halftime. Although Roberto Firmino reduced the deficit for Al-Sadd in the second half, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic sealed the win for Al-Hilal in the 81st minute. Al-Hilal, a four-time champion, now leads the western group of the 24-team tournament, which is divided into two geographic zones. The top eight teams from each zone will advance to the knockout stage. In other matches, South Korean clubs Ulsan HD and Gangwon FC emerged victorious over their Japanese counterparts, Sanfrecce Hiroshima and Vissel Kobe, respectively. Additionally, former AC Milan coach Sergio Conceição celebrated his first win as the head of Saudi club Al-Ittihad with a commanding 4-1 victory over Iraq’s Al-Shorta.
