The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) is set to postpone an AFC Champions League Elite third-round match between Al Nassr from Saudi Arabia and Al Wasl from the UAE due to travel issues. Al Wasl chose not to travel to Riyadh because of flight problems, particularly the scarcity of available flights, which has led to the fixture being unable to proceed as planned, according to Al Khaleej Arabic daily.
The AFC is expected to officially announce the postponement, which was scheduled to occur in Riyadh as part of the competition's third round. A revised date for the match has not been announced yet, and both teams are awaiting an official decision from the Asian football governing body. Other postponed second-leg ties in the competition include matches involving Ronaldo and Al Nassr's Dubai fixture.
