FELIX SHAKING HANDS WITH THE OPPOSITION AT FULL TIME STORY: Al Nassr put four past Tajikistan side FC Istiklol on Wednesday (November 26) in a comfortable victory that keeps them at least six points clear at the summit of their AFC Champions League Two group. A Joao Felix penalty opened the scoring in the 12th minute, before centre back Mohamed Simakan volleyed home to double the Saudi side's advantage just before the break. Al Nassr added gloss to the scoreline in the final knockings of the game, as Senegalese international Sadio Mane's finish was too strong for Istiklol goalkeeper Nikola Stosic, before Ayman Yahya curled home from the edge of the box in added time. Only Iraq's Al-Zawraa stand in the way of a clean sweep of group stage victories for Al Nassr, whilst Istiklol will travel to the division's bottom side FC Goa for their final group game.
