Group J: Wuhan Three Towns FC (CHN) 2-1 Hanoi FC (VIE)

Wuhan: Goals from Wei Shihao and Marcao saw China PR’s Wuhan Three Towns register their first-ever continental victory in a 2-1 win over Vietnam’s Hanoi FC in Tuesday’s Group J clash in the AFC Champions League™ 2023/24.

Wuhan had only a point to show from their opening two AFC Champions League ties, but Joel Tagueu’s early sending off put Wuhan in the ascendancy and goals either side of half-time from Wei Shihao and substitute Marcao proved decisive over a Hanoi side who recorded a third successive defeat in Asia, despite having time for both a late consolation strike via Pham Tuan Hai and second red card, this time for Dao Van Nam.
