The second leg of the 23-24 AFC Champions League final ended not long ago, facing the UAE giants Al Ain, the Japanese team Yokohama Marinos, who won the first leg, failed to grasp the advantage, they lost 1-5 away from home, and the overall score was 3-6 unfortunately relegated to the runner-up, and the dream of entering the 2025 Club World Cup came to naught!

In this AFC Champions League, the UAE's Al Ain team went all the way, and after knocking out two Saudi favourites Riyadh Victory and Riyadh Crescent in succession, they successfully met Yokohama Mariners from East Asia in the final. And when it comes to Yokohama Mariners, I believe that Shandong Taishan fans will not be unfamiliar, in this AFC Champions League, Shandong Taishan has been in the group stage and the knockout round 4 times and Yokohama Mariner has played against each other, as a result of all 4 games Shandong Taishan lost, can only watch the opponent, step by step into the final finals.

In the first leg between the two teams, the Yokohama Marinores, who were playing at home, defeated Al Ain 2-1 and firmly held the initiative in their own hands. As long as the Yokohama Mariners remain unbeaten this time, they will be able to lift the AFC Champions League trophy for the first time and get a ticket to the revamped Club World Cup. The Club World Cup next year has a fatal attraction for all clubs, because each participating team will receive a participation bonus of 50 million pounds, equivalent to more than 460 million yuan!

But Al Ain, who is fighting at home, is not so easy to deal with. Just eight minutes into the game, Rahimi scored a goal to level the aggregate score for the home side. In the 33rd minute, Kaku scored another penalty to extend the score to 2-0 and rewrite the aggregate score to 3-2. Although before half-time, Yokohama Mariner equalized the aggregate score with a goal from foreign player Mateus, but their goalkeeper made a big mistake in half-time stoppage time, he brought down the opposing attacking player outside the penalty area, and was directly shown a red card by the referee, and this penalty also directly changed the trend of the game.

In the 67th minute, Rahimi got rid of the defender on the right side of the penalty area, and then volleyed from a small angle to the near corner, and Al Ain led again with a total score of 4-3! In the stoppage time of the game, the Yokohama Marinos, who were under heavy pressure, suffered a collapse, and substitute striker Raba scored two goals in four minutes to lock the final score at 5-1! In the end, Al Ain defeated the Yokohama Mariners 5-1, won the 6-3 on aggregate, won the AFC Champions League, and got the last ticket to the Club World Cup in Asia!

And this key defeat also made the Yokohama Mariners suffer heavy losses, counting the AFC Champions League winning prize of 4 million US dollars and the participation prize of the Club World Cup of 50 million pounds, they lost the AFC Champions League, and the direct economic loss has exceeded 490 million yuan! Seeing this scene, I wonder if the Shandong Taishan fans who were killed four times in the season will feel better?
