Western Sydney is Asian champ
Print Edition
THE youngest of the Australian A-League clubs became the first to win the Asian Champions League title, with Western Sydney Wanderers holding Saudi powerhouse Al Hilal to a 0-0 draw in the second leg of the final for a 1-0 aggregate victory.
Western Sydney spent most of the game defending as Al Hilal poured forward in waves off attack in front of a frenetic home crowd, but goalkeeper Ante Covic made a string of saves to keep the two-time champions scoreless for a second straight game. “The game was everything you expect from a final,” Wanderers coach Tony Popovic said. “They are a very good team, they had fantastic support, but we are an excellent team and we showed over two legs how good we are.”
Western Sydney was playing in the continental competition for the first time, and was only founded in 2012.
