CAIRO – 17 October 2017: Al Hilal will meet Iranian club Persepolis on Tuesday at the AFC Champions League semi-finals’ second leg at Sultan Qaboos Sports Complex, Muscat.
Al Hilal enters the game with a strong offense that consists of Omar Kharbin, Carlos Eduardo and Salem Aldossari, but the team will miss their biggest star, Nawaf El Abed, for muscle injury.
“We are ready, and we seek to win tomorrow’s match to qualify for the final. We performed well in the first leg though we were missing a player in the second half, and we have the desire to play tomorrow at the same level,” Al Hilal manager, Ramon Diaz, told press on Monday.
On the other hand Persepolis fans seek for a comeback against Al Hilal though they are missing their top scorer, Mehdi Taremi.
It is worth mentioning that Al Hilal defeated Persepolis 4-0 in the first leg. Omar Kharbin scored three goals, while Yasser El Shahrani scored the fourth.
