MATCH OFFICIALS BREAKING UP ARGUMENT BETWEEN AL-AHLI AND SHARJAH STAFF STORY: Saudi Arabia's Al-Ahli lost 1-0 to Sharjah FC from the United Arab Emirates in Jeddah on Monday (November 24) as the Asian Champions League Elite title holders suffered a rare defeat in front of their own fans in the continental championship. Ousmane Camara's 81st-minute strike handed Matthias Jaissle's heavily rotated side their first loss in this season's western league phase and the club's first defeat in the competition since April 2021. Jaissle started with first-choice goalkeeper Edouard Mendy, midfielder Franck Kessie and England forward Ivan Toney on the bench and the champions were hit when Luanzinho released Camara to score the game's only goal. The result leaves Al-Ahli in third place after five matches in the 12-team standings, two points behind leaders Al-Hilal, who face Iraq's Al-Shorta on Tuesday. The first eight finishers will advance to the knockout rounds in March with the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final to be played in a centralised venue in Saudi Arabia in April.
