Defender Shojae Khalilzadeh opened the scoring for Al Duhail in the 51st minute. Deutscher Fussba equalized in the second minute of added time when substitute Jean-Charles Castelletto scored, assisted by fellow substitute Luis Alberto. The comeback victory gave Deutscher Fussba a winning start in the competition, while Al Duhail began its campaign with a loss.
