Star-studded Saudi club dominates final
-
Brazil winger Galeno broke Kawasaki’s resistance in the 35th minute when he sent an unstoppable strike into the top corner to send the home side on the way to their first Asian title, with Franck Kessie heading in the second seven minutes later.
The victory makes Al Ahli the third Saudi club to win the competition in its various guises, joining city rivals and twice winners Al Ittihad and Riyadh’s four-times champions Al Hilal.
“We are so proud,’ said Al Ahli goal-keeper Edouard Mendy. “Once we knew the final eight would be played in Jeddah itwas our goal to be champions in front of our fans. Since I came here 18 months ago they have supported us so much.
“As I said when I signed here, it’s to make history, to continue to win trophies and make this club as big as it was before.”
