Al Wakrah beat Tajikstan’s Ravsshan 1-0

DOHA: Gelson Dala’s first-half strike helped Al Wakrah overcome FC Ravshan in their AFC Champions League Two Group A tie on Wednesday.

The Ghanaian’s first-half strike secured Al Wakrah their first points while Ravshan are still in search of a win, having opened their campaign with a draw.

The quality of the match wasn’t that great as both the teams jostled for possession with Ravshan’s Samuel Ofori sending his long range effort high, while Al Wakrah Lucas Mendes angled his free-kick just over the bar before Hamdi Fathy failed to find the target after sending his shot from distance wide.
