Al-Hilal snatch thriller as Nasaf left pointless

Al-Hilal secured three points after defeating Nasaf 3-2 at Pakhtakor Central Stadium during the AFC Champions League second-round contest. Sergej Milinković-Savić opened scoring in the 22nd minute before Bakhramov leveled five minutes later, and Theo Hernandez restored the Saudi side's advantage during first-half stoppage time. Sidikov equalized again in the 61st minute, but Marcos Leonardo netted the decisive strike in the 79th minute to complete the comeback victory. The result lifted Al-Hilal to six points in second position, while the Uzbek hosts remained pointless through two matches.
