Defeat at home against the Asian champion with the presence of Iranian stars/ Taremi and Al-Wasl, under the strong Saudi team

Saudi Arabia's Al-Ahli achieved a valuable victory at Al-Wasl house in the UAE and celebrated its first win in the new season of the Asian Elite League with a 3-1 advantage. A match in which Mehdi Taremi played for the UAE representative from the beginning.

According to Sport Se, Al-Wasl of the United Arab Emirates and Al-Ahly of Saudi Arabia faced each other in the second week of the Asian Elite League at the Zabeel Stadium in Dubai. After losing 2-1 against Al-Qadisiyah in the first week, Al-Wasl hoped to get back on the winning track by using the host point, but Al-Ahly, who had drawn against Pakhtakor in the first round, got their first three points with an effective performance in Dubai.

Al-Ahly started the game better and scored in the 20th minute. Roger Ibanez opened the door for Al-Wasl so that the defending champions could hope for a victory from the first half. However, Al-Wasl returned to the game in the last moments of the first half. Pedro Malheiro's shot was accompanied by a mistake by Al-Ahly's goalkeeper, so that the home team scored an equalizing goal before going to the dressing room, and the first half ended with a 1-1 result.

Al-Ahly took the initiative again in the second half and scored the second goal in the 58th minute by Francisco Trincao. This goal once again put the representative of Saudi Arabia ahead and put pressure on Al-Wasl to compensate for the result.

The Emirati team tried to equalize in the final minutes, but received the final blow in stoppage time. Firas Al-Barikan scored Al-Ahly's third goal in the 90+1 minute to ensure the victory of the powerful Saudi team.

In the end, Al-Ahly left Al-Wasl with a score of 3-1 and won their first win in the current season of the Asian Elite League. Mehdi Taremi, the striker of the Iranian national team, who was in the Al-Wasl starting line-up, could not help his team to prevent this defeat at home on a night when his team saw their goal open twice after the equalizing goal.
