Wednesday won the East Asian knockout round, Jeonbuk Hyundai 2-0, Bangkok United 2-2, two scores in both directions are fine! Comfortable! Today, let's take a look at what will happen in Thursday's AFC Champions League knockout match, Sepahan and Riyadh Crescent. Other views on Thursday are placed in Big Goose's football diary, and everyone rationally refers to it.
Sepahan has removed the controversial sculpture and the Riyadh crescent state is unresolved
Riyadh Crescent, as the existence of the Asian Galaxy Battleship, has been in an inexplicable state recently, whether it is a league or a cup match, or even a warm-up match. The league is currently far ahead of the second-place Riyadh victory by as many as 7 points, winning the league championship is not a big problem, in the Saudi crown Cup front, has also reached the semi-finals, the next Riyadh crescent goal is very simple, that is, the AFC Champions League front impact champion! After all, it was a real shame for Riyadh Crescent to win the championship by Urawa Red Diamonds last season.
At present, Neymar is still recovering from injury, although Neymar has ended his vacation and returned to Saudi Arabia by private jet, but Riyadh Crescent mainly depends on Mitrovic, Malcolm, Milinkovic, and the offensive core of the Saudi national team, Dausari. Since Saudi Arabia failed to qualify for the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup, the Saudi international in the Riyadh Crescent team has already returned to the team, and there is no fitness problem.
In the group stage of the AFC Champions League, Sepahan was in the same group as Jeddah United, another Saudi Arabian team that actively recruited him, but because of the controversial sculpture at home, Jeddah United boycotted the game away, and finally the AFC and the muddy direct penalty Sepahan lost 0-3 to Jeddah United. However, before the AFC Champions League knockout round, Sepahan had already removed the controversial sculpture, so there is no need to worry that Riyadh Crescent will choose to strike due to some off-field factors after it leaves for Iran.
This Riyadh Crescent away game can give a direct concession to 0.75, and the attitude can be regarded as strong, after all, Riyadh Crescent previously played Sepahan in Iran in the AFC Champions League, and it was basically the recipient side. Considering that the lineup of Riyadh Crescent is really incomprehensible, and Sepahan does not have any strong foreign aid, it is quite difficult to bring down Riyadh Crescent, the "Asian Galaxy Battleship", so this game supports Riyadh Crescent to win.
