MD3: Ulsan HD (KOR) 0-2 Vissel Kobe (JPN)

Ulsan: Taisei Miyashiro scored twice as Vissel Kobe deepened Ulsan HD’s misery in the AFC Champions League Elite™ 2024/25 on Wednesday with the Japanese claiming a 2-0 win at Ulsan Complex Stadium to leave the K-League leaders bottom of the league phase standings.

Miyashiro netted in the 48th and 73rd minutes to earn Kobe a second win of the campaign that moves Takayuki Yoshida’s side onto seven points from three games and the J.League champions now sit two points behind early leaders Gwangju FC.

Ulsan, by contrast, have yet to pick up a point in this year’s revamped competition and the two-times Asian champions will need to turn their fortunes around if they are to claim a top eight finish in the group to advance to the knockout rounds.
