Omar Khribin finally succeeded to score Al Hilal’s only goal in the game minutes before the first half whistle.
Al Hilal will meet Iranian club Persepolis on Tuesday at the AFC Champions League semi-finals’ second leg at Sultan Qaboos Sports Complex, Muscat.
Al Hilal players will not miss their fans, as Al Hilal fans are expected to travel to UAE to support the club, along with the expected support from Emirati fans.
Al Hilal won the Asian Champions League in 1991 and 2000, while their opponent, Persepolis, never did.
