The AFC Champions League was a heart-stopping drama on a dawn Tuesday. The former league champions Aaan hosted Saudi Arabia's Hilal in a matchup that looked like a rematch of the last quarterfinals. Back then, Aaan eliminated Hilal in a thrilling 5-4 victory. But this is a different time, and Hilal are ready to take revenge on this battlefield, even if they have to let go of a goal to win the match.
In the last four rounds of the AFC Champions League, Aaan had knocked out the title favorites Hilal with three controversial penalties, leaving fans stunned. The United Arab Emirates, on the other hand, have been struggling this year, with only one point in the first two rounds and five goals scored by their opponents. Their defense has been stretched to the limit, making it difficult for them to withstand Hilal's onslaught. In the league, Aaan's performance is also not ideal, currently only ranked in the middle of the league, the players' form and confidence have hit rock bottom.
Hilal have failed to win in all their official matches since losing to Aaan in April, even forming an embarrassing record of 11 consecutive losses. But just in the last 7 official matches, they have collected at least 2 goals. World-class stars such as Alexandre Mizouwic, Margan and Rubin Neves are as bright as stars at the moment, and their strength is unique in the Asian football world. Today, they vowed to avenge their loss in the previous round and go all out for their rightful honor!
