AFC CUP 2015 MD1 – GROUP C: FC ISTIKLOL 1-3 ARBIL     26/02/2015 1:14:17 AM


Dushanbe: Iraq’s Arbil underlined their AFC Cup title credentials as the 2014 finalists began their Group C campaign on Wednesday with a 3-1 win over Tajikistan double winners FC Istiklol.
Defender Ahmed Mohammed opened the scoring 10 minutes before half-time at Republican Central Stadium only for an own goal from team-mate Mustafa Al Shabbani to hand the home side an equaliser on the hour mark.
But after Nabeel Sabah restored Arbil’s advantage five minutes later, fellow forward Luay Salah sealed the win with 15 minutes remaining.
