Esteghlal Held by Al Nassr in 2024-25 ACL R16 First Leg
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Esteghlal and Al Nassr Club settled for a goalless stalemate in their AFC Champions League Elite 2024-25 Round of 16 first leg at the Azadi Stadium on Monday.
Both sides had chances but failed to finish with Saudi Arabia's Al Nassr set to host Iran's Esteghlal in the return leg on March 11.
Al Nassr was missing five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo and Aymeric Laporte, who scored the only goal when the sides met on Matchday Three of the League Stage.
Esteghlal will travel to Saudi Arabia to play Al Nassr in the second leg next week.
