And the AFC announced on Wednesday evening that Al Hilal had withdrawn from the current version of the AFC Champions League, after canceling the team’s meeting against Emirati youth Al-Ahly in the sixth round of the group stage, knowing that it was within the reach of the next round.
Al-Hilal was unable to complete its list for the match according to the regulations that stipulate the necessity of 13 players, including a goalkeeper, due to Corona injuries that struck the mission in Doha, as the main squad included only 9 players beside two goalkeepers on the bench.
After the decision to exclude, some members of the Crescent mission who were not infected with Corona returned to the Saudi capital, “Riyadh”, last Saturday.
However, with regard to the mission personnel suffering from Corona, it was not possible for them to return to “Riyadh”, after their return was refused until the end of the 10-day isolation period and a swab was taken for them before leaving their place of residence.
It is noteworthy that the appeal made by Al Hilal against the decision to exclude him from the AFC Champions League was rejected by the AFC, amid press reports confirming the intention of the “leader” to escalate the matter to the Sports Arbitration Court.
