Shabab Al-Ahly bid farewell to the AFC Champions League from the preliminary round stage, after losing to Al-Nasr Al-Saudi 2/4 in the match that took place between them on Tuesday evening, at Al-Awal Park Stadium in the capital, Al-Riya.
Al-Nasr advanced first through Talisca, “11”, then Shabab Al-Ahly responded with two goals through Yahya Al-Ghassani, “18 and 64”, then the Saudi team responded with three goals through each of Sultan Al-Ghanam, “88”, and Talisca, “90 + 5”. , and Brozovic “90 + 7”.
Shabab Al-Ahly presented a distinguished performance throughout the two halves of the match, despite the strong start that victory had in the beginning, which witnessed a threat to its own goal after only four minutes, from a Talisca shot, which was caught firmly by goalkeeper Majed Nasser.
But Talisca managed, on a second occasion, to reach the net of the Dubai Knights, taking advantage of a corner kick distributed by Brozovic, and he rose to it before the defenders and deposited it with his head to the right of Majed Nasser.
Shabab Al-Ahly showed a strong personality after the goal, and rushed offensively, so its player, Milivojevic, hit a ground shot from outside the box, which was caught by the victory goalkeeper.
Immediately after that, the Emirati team was able to equalize after a distinguished individual effort by Moanes Dabour, who dodged two of the Al-Nasr defense, and distributed a ball on a plate of gold to his colleague Yahya Al-Ghassani, who turned it into the net.
Shabab Al-Ahly retreated to defend again amid multiple attempts by Cristiano Ronaldo, who demanded on more than one occasion a penalty kick, but Chinese referee Mang Fu indicated each time to resume play.
At the beginning of the second half, Yahya Al-Ghassani succeeded in snatching the Al-Nasr defense after skipping the right-back, Sultan Al-Ghanam, and was alone in the goal to put the ball over goalkeeper Nawaf Al-Aqidi the moment he left to meet him.
Al-Nasr tried to advance after the goal and pressed with all its lines in order to equalize, and almost achieved its goal with a cross distributed by the left-back Konan, to deceive goalkeeper Majed Nasser and fall from behind him, but the left post was present and blocked the game “62”.
Two minutes before the end, Al-Nasr snatched the equalizing goal through Sultan Al-Ghanam, after a ball hit the head of defender Walid Abbas, and Majed Nasser’s attempts to counter it failed.
And Talisca snatched the winning goal for Al-Nassr in stoppage time, taking advantage of the repeated gap between the two defense hearts and diverting Conan’s cross with his head into the goal.
And the decline of Al-Ahly youth continued, and it received a fourth goal through Brozovic, from a shot that settled to the left of Majed Nasser.
