Abdullah Al Hamddan – Al Nassr Club (v FK Arkadag) 
FK Arkadag’s resistance was broken when Angelo threaded a neat through ball for the forward to finish coolly past Rasul Charyyev. 

Yousef Abu Jalboush – Al Hussein (v Esteghlal FC) 
He pressed, he fired and he scored! Al Hussein’s late surge paid off when Esteghlal failed to fully clear a corner; Sisa collected some 30 yards out and produced a magnificent effort that swerved beyond Abbasi for the winner.

Ibrahim Gbadamosi - Al Zawraa SC (v Al Wasl FC) 
Full throttle, silky move and cold-blooded strike! The Nigerian left Gabriel Vareta hopeless on the grass before releasing a thunderous finish past Al Wasl keeper Khaled Al Senaani. 

Adryelson - Al Wasl FC (v Al Zawraa SC) 
Cometh the moment, cometh the man! Adryelson stepped up to convert Pedro Malheiro’s cross from inside the box in stoppage time to send the game into extra-time. That goal led to one of the most sensational comebacks of the season so far.

Jasir Asani - Esteghlal FC (v Al Hussein) 
He made the defenders pay the ultimate price for not clearing the ball in a pinch! Asani sent a curling effort past Al Hussein custodian Yazeed Abulaila to double his tally in style. 

Tana – Ratchaburi FC (v Persib Bandung) 
A dream start for the Thai side: Denilson Junior teed up Tana just outside the six-yard box, a composed side-foot finish leaving Teja Paku Alam flat-footed and Persib stunned. 

Ryoya Yamashita – Gamba Osaka (v FC Pohang Steelers) 
Running down the left flank, full throttle and unstoppable! Two minutes after the restart, Jebali split the defence with a perfect through ball; Yamashita burned past Park Chan-yong and curled sweetly into the top corner. 

Jorge Luiz – FC Pohang Steelers (v Gamba Osaka) 
An equaliser on 70 minutes: Gamba failed to clear, Luiz seized upon it and bent a superb finish into the top corner before Higashiguchi could react. Fine touches, class finish! 

Ilias Alhaft – Bangkok United (v Macarthur FC) 
Defenders could push him and give him no space, but they could not take away his persistence to score. Alhaft surged into a packed box and slipped his finish goal-wards, a kind deflection carrying it beyond Filip Kurto to hand Bangkok United a comfortable cushion for the return leg. 

Hide Higashikawa - Tampines Rovers FC (v Cong An Hanoi FC) 
Sealed his brace in style! The Japanese centre-forward was in absolute beast mode when the striker went around defender Doan Van Hau at the top of the area and unleashed an unstoppable shot.
