PS - Group C: Master FC (LAO) 0-9 Banaat FC (UAE)
Qarshi: Banaat FC kept their progression hopes alive after securing a 9-0 win against Master FC in their AFC Women’s Champions League 2026/27™ Preliminary Stage match on Thursday.
The United Arab Emirates side, however, know there’s still much to do as they will take on Uzbekistan’s PFC Nasaf on Sunday to determine who tops Group C and advances to the group stage.
