Kuala Lumpur: The AFC Cup expanded to 32 teams in 2009 and a Round of 16 was introduced for the first time as the tournament moved into its sixth edition.
The first representatives from Kuwait took to the field and it would mark the beginning of a period of dominance for the Gulf state as each of the ensuing six finals would feature at least one side from the country, starting with Kuwait SC, who faced Syria’s Al Karamah in the final.
