Who the heck decided that they play those games in Oman?

Can we watch the matches on "The Afc Hub" youtube?

If Esteghlal manages a draw against Al Ahli that would be an accomplishment- they have the best strikers in all of Asia- Asamoah Gyan, Ahmad Khalil, Everton Ribiera, and Dioup.


I think SS.Khuzestan can get a result(hopefully a win) against al Fateh.

Zob Ahan is tricky.. again another draw is my prediction.

PP is our best shot at any win this week, and they face an in form Al Hilal team.


Tough week ahead for our clubs. My prediction is 1 win, 2 draws and a loss.

That URL is almost as long as the article itself!

Persepolis earn 75 000 euros from the 13,000 tickets Al Hilal bought from them.

[Kian Persepolis]

Wait, why was Taremi not able to play in the first place, and why did Al Hilal by 13,000 tickets from persepolis?

TO fill the stadium with Al Hilal fans.

[_Navid_]

The pattern shows that our teams always perform the best in the first week of ACL. But with these matches I predict 5 points max.

wwooooowwww...... can't believe they would stoop that low

[04041374]

There were claims by Saudi media, that the tickets were sold to an Omani Sheikh, which was denied by Taheri. On the other side they claim, that Al-Hilal bought 13.000 tickets for the game. According to AFC rules, 8% of the stadium capacity belongs to the away fans, 13.000 tickets would make 35% of the stadium.

That is how expensive tickets should be. Whether from an UCL match or La Liga or ACL. Football fans are not cows, they shouldn't milked and forced to pay 50 euros for a single ticket.

Acutally the tickets are 5 and 20 Omani Rials (12,5 and 50 USD)
