Arguably the finest player the Maldives has ever produced, Ali Ashfaq's wonder goal in 2013, scored in Indonesia against Persibo Bojonegoro, emerged top of the 32-goal AFC Cup Bracket Challenge.

A stunning solo goal, having already rounded the 'keeper it appeared Ashfaq had an easy tap-in, but the striker seemed intent on tormenting the Persibo backline, twisting one way and then the next before coolly finishing into the centre of the goal for a memorable effort that Asia's football fans clearly haven't forgotten.

Doha: Chiangrai United's Bill has been voted by the fans as the 2020 AFC Champions League (East) Toyota Player of the Week after the striker's exceptional performance against FC Seoul last Friday.

The Brazilian striker's double saw the Thai side defeat their Korean opponents with his two goals coming from three shots on target, while he also made 26 passes for his 8.2 rating.

An icon mourned, history made and milestones achieved - here's what those involved had to say following the latest matches from the 2020 AFC Champions League (East) in Doha.

The Braziiian-born Chinese international, formerly known as Elkeson, became just the fourth player in the competition’s history to reach the 30-goal barrier, taking him to within seven of the all-time record holder, Korea Republic legend Lee Dong-gook.

SIPG took the lead in the Group H tie through Cai Huikang’s powerful header early on before Ado Onaiwo struck the equaliser a few minutes later. Ricardo Lopes had the final say though, putting the Chinese Super League side ahead midway through the second half after combining with Oscar who sent the former in on goal.

The Beetles had lost 5-0 to Seoul just three days earlier, and even a draw would have seen them eliminated from the competition, but two goals from 36-year-old Brazilian striker Bill gave them a historic win which not only lifted the club’s spirits but revived their hopes of reaching the Round of 16.

Chiangrai’s win gives them three points from four matches, putting them within three of second placed Seoul with two group stage matches remaining.
