Oman today_ In the first leg of the AFC Elite League Round of 16, Al-Ahli Saudi secured a significant 3-1 victory against Al-Rayyan Qatar, taking a major step towards advancing to the next stage.
In this match, Al-Ahli’s goals were scored by Galeno, Mahrez, and Al-Buraikan. Al-Rayyan managed to score their only goal in the 71st minute through a precise shot by Guedes into Mendy’s net. In the closing moments of the game, during the 10th minute of stoppage time, Adam Borrero from Al-Rayyan received a red card and was sent off, which not only left his team shorthanded but also ruled him out of the return leg in Saudi Arabia.
It is worth noting that the second-leg match between the two teams will take place next Tuesday in Jeddah, where Al-Ahli will aim to solidify their advancement.
