Singapore: Muangthong United will believe they can complete the comeback when they travel to face Lion City Sailors in the return leg of their AFC Champions League Two™ 2024/25 last 16 tie on Thursday.

The Thai side looked to be down and out after trailing 3-0 just 27 minutes into the first leg but then capitalised on their numerical advantage when Singapore's Lion City Sailors were reduced to 10 men to pull two goals back.

We showed our quality, says Sharjah's Olaroiu

Sharjah: Cosmin Olaroiu praised the focus and determination of his players after Sharjah FC defeated Al Hussein on penalties to advance to the AFC Champions League Two™ 2024/25 quarter-finals on Tuesday.

UAE's Sharjah, having won the first leg 1-0, started as favourites on home ground but were undone by Mahmoud Al Mardi's goal as the tie went into a shootout at the end of 120 minutes.

Olaroiu, however, believed Sharjah came to the fore when it mattered the most.
