Saudi Arabia's Al Ahli defeated Kawasaki Frontale (Japan) to win the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League Elite (ACLE).

Al-Ahli defeated Kawasaki 2-0 in the ACLE final of the 2024-25 season at King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on the 4th (Korea time).

Al-Ahli became the first team to win the AFC Championship. Al-Ahli had previously won the runner-up prize in 1986 and 2012.

Firmino, who scored two assists in the final, was named MVP of the competition. Firmino scored six goals and seven assists in the upcoming competition. Notably, he scored the first goal in the semifinal with Alhilal, and made a brilliant contribution to winning the title by helping him with both goals in the final.

Kawasaki, who advanced to the AFC-hosted final for the first time in the club's history by beating Middle Eastern teams with "oil money" such as Al-Sad (UAE) and Al-Nasr (Saudi Arabia), was satisfied with the runner-up.

Al-Ahli, who had been bothering Kawasaki's defense since the beginning of the game, was led by a goal from Wenderson Galeno, who received a pass from Firmino in the 35th minute of the first half. 메이저사이트

Six minutes later, Kesier scored Firmino's cross and Al-Ahli ran away by two goals.
