AFC Leagues - Weekly scores [R]

alIttihad beat aShabab 4-0 yesterday to all but mathmaticaly secure top spot. The win marks a bounce back from recent turbulent times which included the defeat at alHilal in the cup and the draw against bottom team aNajma and the sacking of the coach. It could've been more as Hamza Idrees missed a penalty (saved) and the referee dissallowed a legitimate goal.

goals:
Hamza Idrees

Well, with this win, finally all the teams have played all their postponed matches.

Don't know the scorers... all the goals were in the first half.

 

Looks like it's Jeddah's year. Is there a cross-town rivalry? IOW, would Ittihad's fans support Hilal in the match between hilal and ahli?

 

Scorers in Qadessia game:

Saeed alWad'ani 8 , Edmilton 30 , Yaser alQahtani 31 , Saleh aSarhani 44

--------------------

WuTang,

Yeah there is a city rivalry, and it can get pretty intense.
As for your example though, I'm not sure. Hilal and Ittihad don't get on very well. But it is very much the case when Ittihad play Hilal in Jeddah.
The Ahli supporters club gives free tickets and bus rides to any ahli fan wishing to support hilal. Or at least have done in the past.

 

shimizu sucks they've got tortured by jubilo. they lost the game 2-0 outshot by 16-2. they are now at the bottom of the table. amazing to see them suffer this much considering the number of well known players they have. so far they tied only once and lost 3 games

 

wow 16-2 that's a pretty wide margin. wtf's wrong with s-pulse? What's happening to Ahn and Alex...

 

Sho'ola 0 - 2 Ittihad
Camara 65 , Maurelio 70

Ta'ei 0 - 1 Shabab
Landomar 90

clap clap clapclapclap JUBILO IWATA!

glad we are still doing well without Takahara, though I am sure we would have had another goal or two with him.

 

I was at this game. I never heard of a single player on the field before the game. Kazu played liked two minutes in the end. Kobe outplayed Sendai in the first half. Sendai played with their backup keeper. He was awesome.... he kept Kobe from scoring in the first half. Sendai took 2-0 lead... the second goal was very nice from a player named Abe.

Sendai is now leading the league, right?????

 

now yokohama is top. when you checked it, sendai was top.

kashima beat tokyo verdy 1-0 with k nakata's header. mboma saw action in the second half. i heard he's now completely depleted.

gamba 3-3 ichihara. they need to do something with its defense. they've given up 8 goals already

Urawa scored the first 3 goals in like 11 minutes, only to totally crash.............

 

Yeah, the reds haven't built on last years good (ish) form. I was hoping for a competitive season. Unfortunately, the club is not giving what their huge fanbase deserves.

 

Kobe lost with an unlucky PK.... Sidicilei de Souza fell down by himself inside the box.... on his way down, he pulled Nakayama. He was trying to keep his balance.

Yoshito Okubo of Osaka was awesome. He had two goals and at least one assist. His first goal.... he dribbled past the last defender to score his first. He was liked Denilson. His second was a bicycle kick. No, I have not seen the game. I saw the highlight. the number of goals for this game is a J-League record(I think).

As for Mboma, I saw the highlight of his game. Basically, the camera follwed him around. He struggled. He was subbed. They showed him on the bench speechless. I do not know Japanese. I have no idea what they were saying.
