Q-final: Al Ahli beat Al Hussein to keep dream alive

Dubai: Former Germany midfielder Julian Draxler scored direct from a corner to lead Al Ahli SC to a 3-1 win over Al Hussein from Jordan on Sunday as the Qatari side progressed to the semi-finals of the AFC Champions League Two 2025/26™.

Erik Exposito had given Al Ahli the lead in the second minute but, while Yousef Qashi levelled the scores 19 minutes later, it was Draxler who proved to be the difference between the teams, spectacularly bending in his set-piece in the 65th minute.

Michel Vlap also scored a stoppage time penalty and the result means Al Ahli will take on Al Nassr Club from Saudi Arabia in the semi-final on Wednesday, with the winners facing Japan’s Gamba Osaka in the final next month.

Gamba live up to Wissing’s expectations

Bangkok: Jens Wissing expressed satisfaction after his Gamba Osaka side dominated their AFC Champions League Two 2025/26™ semi-final, second leg on Wednesday, sweeping past Bangkok United to advance 3-1 on aggregate.

Chasing a 1-0 deficit from the first leg, Wissing had his Gamba side playing with incredible intensity from the opening whistle as they swarmed all over the pitch to keep the home side on the back foot. 

It was only a matter of time before the breakthrough came with Ryoya Yamashita finding the net in the 19th minute before further strikes from Issam Jebali (39th) and Ryotaro Meshino (82nd) settled the contest.
