AFC Cup Final Flashback: Kuwait SC v Arbil (2012)

Kuala Lumpur: It took eight years for the AFC Cup to finally see a side from outside West Asia crowned champions when, in 2011, Uzbekistan’s Nasaf won the competition after beating Kuwait SC in the final.

However, in 2012 normal service was resumed when former winners Kuwait, who would compete in their third final in four years, faced off against Iraq’s Arbil in the showpiece event in a repeat of the previous year’s semi-final.

Slow starts, strong finishes
