In the second round of the Asian Football Champions League final, Ain and Yokohama Mariners played an exciting match. Ain won the second AFC Champions League trophy with a 6-3 victory over the ten-man Yokohama Mariners, thanks to a great team effort and a great performance by the players.
At the beginning of the match, Ain showed a strong desire to attack. In the 9th minute, Nadir's sublime return allowed Rahimi to capitalize on the opportunity and score the first goal, bringing the score to 2-2. This goal boosted Ain's morale and they started to take the initiative on the field.
However, the Yokohama Mariners did not take defeat lightly. They showed tenacity in the game as well. In the 40th minute, Jan Matthäus broke the ball in front of the goal and broke into the penalty area and managed to score a goal to make the score 2-1. However, just when the game looked like it was going to be a stalemate, the Ain were once again on the ball. In the 45th+10th minute, William Pope was shown a straight red card by the referee after bringing down Rahimi outside the box. This unforeseen situation put the Yokohama Mariners in a passive position.
In the second half, Ain continued their onslaught with the advantage of one more player. In the 67th minute, Rahimi once again showed his individuality by dribbling past a defender and firing a shot from a narrow angle to extend the lead to 3-1. Rahimi then threatened again when his cross created a penalty kick opportunity for teammate Kaku, who made it 4-1 with a single shot.
The Yokohama Mariners were powerless in the final stages of the match. In extra time, Rabah scored two consecutive goals to seal the win for the Ain. In the end, Ain defeated the ten-man Yokohama Mariners by a score of 5-1, and succeeded in winning the championship with a total score of 6-3 in the two rounds.
