Best of Alvahda for Iran's National Team Player; Qurbani Shines in Asia: Rescuing the Leader

Iranian star Alvahda played a key role in his team's valuable win over Nasaf Qarshi of Uzbekistan.

According to "Varzesh Se", in one of the matches of the second week of the group stage of the Asian Champions League, the Al Wahda team of the Emirates, which had Mohammad Ghorbani in the lineup and the defense line like the previous game, faced the Nasef team of Uzbekistan at 17:15 tonight at the Qarshi Central Stadium.

Mohammad Ghorbani, who five days ago was used in the midfield position in the match of the third week of the group stage of the Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank Cup, and had a brilliant performance during the 2-0 victory of Al Wahda Emirates against Al Dhafra, played in the same position against Nasaf Qarshi tonight and played a role in his team's victory.

In the 21st minute, when the game was tied with no goals, Ghorbani made two outstanding saves in the 6-yard area and prevented Nasef Qarshi from scoring the first goal with two interceptions and a ball save.

Two minutes after this save by the Iranian star Al-Wahdeh, the UAE team scored a goal by Fakondo Kruspejki and Nasaf Qarshi of Uzbekistan opened the goal to make the result 1-0.

In the 38th minute, Nassef Qarshi got a penalty kick, which was missed by the Uzbek national goalkeeper Abdulvahid Nematov, and Facundo Insafran, the Paraguayan goalkeeper of Al-Wahdeh, blocked the ball in the rebound so that the advantage of the Emirati team was not lost.

Even though Nasef Qarshi scored a goal in the second half, the brilliant performance of Al Wahda's defense line led by Mohammad Ghorbani, who gave the most successful aerial battle, the most successful defensive performance, the most interception of the ball and the most correct pass, helped them to finally win.

Yaran Ghorbani, who at the beginning of their career in the Asian Champions League, had won against Al Kuwait Kuwait, tonight in Uzbekistan also won 2:1 against Nasaf Qarshi to get 6 points and stand at the top of the group A table.
