Group G: Kedah Darul Aman (MAS) 5-1 Visakha FC (CAM)

Denpasar: A Mahmoud Al Mardi hat-trick took Kedah Darul Aman into the AFC Cup™ 2022 knockout stage after an emphatic 5-1 win over Cambodia’s Visakha FC secured top spot in Group G at Stadion Kapten I Wayan Dipta on Thursday.

Mohammed Faeez Khan had opened the scoring for Visakha on 20 minutes, but Jordanian forward Al Mardi restored parity just eight minutes later, netted his brace with a set-piece on the brink of half-time, and completed his treble inside the hour mark. Further goals from Fayadh Zulkifli and Ronald Ngah Wanja on the 67th and 76th minute marks ended any hope of an improbable Visakha comeback.
