Osh: FC Ahal came from two goals down to earn a hard-fought 3-2 win on the road against FC Alay in their Group D 2018 AFC Cup clash on Wednesday.
With the two teams already eliminated heading into the game, both were desperate to end their campaign on a high note, with the home side still looking for their first win of the campaign.
Nemat Koshokov’s side made the perfect start when Alia Sylla opened the scoring from the penalty spot after Amredin Sharifi was fouled by Annaguliyev Guychmyrat after 16 minutes.
FC Alay doubled their lead just over five minutes later after some lovely build up play from Sylla and Aldiyar Kabylbekov down the right, with Kozho Joel turning in Kabylbekov’s deflected cross.
But just minutes before the half time break FC Ahal were awarded a penalty of their own and Myrat Annayev converted from the spot to pull a goal back for the visitors.
