Sepahan Loses to Al Wehdat in AFC Champions League Two
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Al Wehdat of Jordan came from behind to defeat Iran’s Sepahan 2-1 in the opening AFC Champions League Two Group C tie on Tuesday.
Trailing to a Vahdat Hanonov opener, Ousseynou Gueye drew Al Wehdat level before a second half strike from Ibrahim Sabra confirmed the points for the home side at Amman International Stadium.
Defending comfortably in numbers and with Sepahan's Hadi Mohammadi sent off in stoppage time, Al Wehdat saw off the remainder of the game to claim the win.
It will next face UAE’s Sharjah FC while Sepahan will host FC Istiklol of Tajikistan with both matches to be played on October 2.
