(Reuters) - Salem Al Dawsari's deflected second-half strike took Al Hilal into their second Asian Champions League final in three seasons with a 2-1 win over 10-man Al Nassr in Riyadh on Tuesday.

Al Dawsari settled the semi-final between the Saudi Arabian rivals at a packed King Saud University Stadium with 19 minutes remaining to take Al Hilal into next month's final, when they will face either Ulsan Hyundai or Pohang Steelers.

Al Hilal's attempt to successfully defend their title last year ended in expulsion from the competition in the group phase after a COVID-19 outbreak within their squad left them unable to field a team for a game against Shabab Al Ahli. Al Hilal's hopes improved further when, two minutes into first-half added time, Al Nassr went down to 10 men as referee Chris Beath showed a straight red card to Lajami following a lunge that caught Morega on the inside of his calf.
