Algerian footballer Riyad Mahrez, playing for the Saudi club Al-Ahli, called on his teammates not to relax, as the club strives for victory in the Asian Champions League for the first time. Today they face the Japanese club Kawasaki Frontale. The team has the advantage of playing the final in front of its fans at Abdulaziz Sports Complex and is trying to win the cup for the third time after losing in the finals in 1986 and 2012.
Al-Ahli is considered the main favorite for victory due to the presence of outstanding players such as Mahrez, Roberto Firmino, and Ivan Toni. However, the Algerian footballer emphasizes the need to take advantage of the opportunity that has opened up before their team in the final. In his statement, Mahrez noted: "When you participate in this type of tournament, you are ready to win, especially when you play on your own field."
