AFC Cup 2017: Al Wehdat SC 2-1 Bengaluru FC, 5 talking points

Bengaluru FC Al Wehdat
In spite of a valiant effort, Bengaluru will have to trudge it out in the AFC Cup once again

#5 Al Wehdat failed to put the game to bed

Al Wehdat
The Jordanians could and should have won by a bigger margin

For all their dominance, the Jordanian side ended the match knowing very well they should have been in a much better position. Slick one-twos, overhead kicks and tricks, Al Wehdat executed them all, as they put on a show for the capacity home crowd. But their failure to finish off their well-worked moves meant that they were in for a nervous final fifteen minutes. Al Wehdat were effortless in their approach but not efficient.

Their midfielder Elias had a wonderful opportunity in the dying minutes to extend the lead. But his weak effort was parried away by Bengaluru keeper, Amrinder Singh. There was little doubt that the Jordanian outfit was the better side on the night. But had CK Vineeth connected better from Udanta Singh’s cross, things could have very well ended differently.
