AFC chooses Abdelkarim Hassan

QNA

The goal by Al Sadd player Abdelkarim Hassan against Uzbek Lokomotiv in the match that brought the two teams in the third round of the 2015 AFC Champions League is chosen to be among the top five long-range goals.


The 2018 AFC Player of the Year Abdelkarim Hassan has his personal showreel of great goals, the AFC said. The left-back's strike against Lokomotiv in 2015 is up there with his finest.


Al Sadd were 4-1 up and cruising when Hassan intercepted the ball in his own half, drove forward in typical fashion, spotted the goalkeeper off his line, and sent a beautiful chip from fully 45 yards over Mamur Okramov's head before celebrating in style.


The top five goals list also included: the goal of Persepolis' Mahdi Torabi against Al Sadd; the goal of Lee Chang-min of Jeju United versus Gamba Osaka; the goal of Ikromjom Alibaev of Lokomotiv against Al Wahda; the goal of Andranik Teymourian of Esteghlal versus Buriram United.
