Rival Al Jazira Loses / Gol Gohar Gets Late Gift After Defeat!

The UAE side scored in the 95th minute to beat Arkadag and take top spot in the group. The defeat could keep Gol Gohar's promotion hopes alive.

According to the report of Al Jazeera Sports, Emirates managed to defeat Arkadag Turkmenistan with a score of 2-1 in one of the most sensitive matches of the second week of the group stage of the AFC Champions League 2 with a goal in the final moments. A result that both changed the top of the table and made the competition for the promotion of Iran's Golgohar group more attractive.

In this match, which was hosted by Al Jazeera in Abu Dhabi, Malcolm gave the hosts the lead from the penalty spot in the 55th minute, but Baisimov scored the equalizing goal for Arkadagh in the 66th minute to bring everything to the final minutes. In a situation where it seemed that the two teams would share the points, Nermin Mojkic scored Al Jazeera's second goal in the 90th + 5th minute to keep three valuable points at home.

Al-Jazeera, who had a goalless draw against Golgohar in their first match, gained four points with this victory and reached the top of the group table at the end of the second match. On the other hand, Arkadagh, which started with a victory against Al-Muharraq, remained with three points and lost the opportunity to increase the gap with its direct competitors.

This result is important for Golgohar because the competition in this group is still intense and none of the teams have been able to create a decisive distance with other competitors.

Golgohar lost in the other match of this group against Bahrain's Al Muharraq. The result made the situation of Iran's representative more difficult in the table, but it does not mean the end of this team's chances of promotion.

Considering the victory of Al-Jazeera against Arkadagh and the defeat of Golgohar against Al-Muharraq, Iran's representative still has the opportunity to change his situation by gaining points in future matches, especially direct matches against the group's rivals.
