Zobahan had begun with a goalless draw against Al Zawraa Club before going on to beat Al Nassr 3-2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Zobahan wasted little time in taking a hold of the game by going ahead on two minutes. Amir Arsalan Motahari came up with a fine assist\u00a0 and Alireza Cheraghali struck his right-footer, from inside the box, past goalkeeper Humaid Abdulla. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zobahan increased the pressure with Ghasem Hadadifar and Motahari coming close in the opening 10 minutes and while Hadadifar drilled his left-footer over the cross bar, Abdulla did well to deny Motahari.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite conceding early, Al Wasl held their line and Zobahan&#8217;s Ighodaro Christian Osaguona and Mohammad Reza Hosseini were caught off-side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Zobahan FC 2-0  Al Wasl FC  (AFC Champions League 2019: Group Stage)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BSyQuPk5auM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Khaleej Times &#8211; DUBAI, Al Wasl fell behind to early strikes from the Iranian club&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26307,"featured_media":36154,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90,84,164,136],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36153","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-c17-asian-competitions","category-c47-featured-news","category-ipl","category-iran-first-division"],"views":549,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36153","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/26307"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36153"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36153\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36155,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36153\/revisions\/36155"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36154"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36153"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36153"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=36153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
