Kitchee’s Mingazov dedicates match-winning goal to parents

Buriram: Ruslan Mingazov’s AFC Champions League™ debut turned out to be a memorable affair as the defender’s goal secured Kitchee SC a 1-0 win over Chiangrai United in Group J action on Saturday.

It was a fabulous debut for Turkmenistan’s Mingazov, named player of the match, as the win gave Kitchee SC’s Round of 16 hopes a massive boost.

Jeonnam not to be taken lightly in AFC Champions League™, says matchwinner Pllana

Pathum Thani: Jeonnam Dragons are not in the AFC Champions League™ 2022 just to make up the numbers according to Leonard Pllana, who scored a late winner in Friday’s 1-0 victory over United City.

After a lacklustre first half where they rarely threatened their Filipino opponents, the Korean FA Cup holders seized a greater sense of control after the interval, with Pllana a key threat down the right-hand side.
 
Their pressure finally paid off in the 87th minute, when Jeonnam’s recently signed Kosovan forward eased home the game’s decisive goal after evading the attention of a fatigued United City defence.

Ho Chi Minh City: Kevin Muscat hailed his Yokohama F. Marinos players after the Japanese side kicked off their AFC Champions League™ 2022 Group H campaign with a 2-1 win over Hoang Anh Gia Lai on Saturday.

Yokohama looked to be well on the way to victory after Brazilian Leo Ceara gave them a 2-0 lead by the 25th minute but an own goal by captain Takuya Kida changed the complexion of the match as Hoang Anh Gia Lai (HAGL) found renewed vigour and made their opponents work hard for the win under sweltering conditions.
