HONG KONG: A trademark Marouane Fellaini header propelled Shandong Luneng into the Asian Champions League knockouts on Wednesday as the former Manchester United midfielder earned the Chinese Super League side a 2-1 win over South Korea's Gyeongnam FC.
"It was difficult because Graziano Pelle was injured so we had many changes, in front and some other players, so it wasn't an easy game for us," said Fellaini, who joined Shandong in January.JDT took all three points from their meeting with Kashima thanks to Syafiq Ahmad's 69th-minute goal after the visitors squandered a host of chances to pick up the win that would have seen them progress to the last 16.
Sho Sasaki was credited with the only goal of the game for Hiroshi Jofuku's side, who lead the standings by three points from Daegu FC and cannot be passed by the South Korean side due to a better head-to-head record. In the west, Iran's Zobahan guaranteed their place in the last 16 from Group A with a 2-2 draw with Al Zawraa of Iraq while a 3-1 win over Al Wasl from the United Arab Emirates earned Al Nassr of Saudi Arabia a spot in the next round.
