RIYADH: Al-Nassr have secured a spot in the semi-finals of the Women’s Clubs Championship after defeating Jordan’s Orthodox 2-1 on Monday at King Abdullah II Stadium in Amman.
Lina Bousaha and Dalal Al-Shafi scored for the team from Riyadh, the last to qualify for the semis.
Meanwhile, Al-Shabab exited the tournament despite recording a 2-1 win over Jordan’s Al-Naser. It was the Saudi club’s only victory of the competition, and the first time they had recorded a win against an international opponent.
Saudi Arabia’s other participating clubs, Al-Ittihad and Al-Hilal, were eliminated from the contest on Sunday.
The eight-club tournament includes four teams each from Jordan and Saudi Arabia.
Wednesday’s semi-finals will see Al-Nassr take on Jordan’s Al-Ittihad, while Amman play Al-Naser in an all-Jordanian clash.
