AMMAN — Wihdat and Jazira’s impressive run at Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Cup came to an end in the Round of 16 this season. Wihdat lost to AFC Cup titleholders Kuwait’s Qadissieh 1-0.

The same team beat them 1-0 earlier this season in the AFC Champions League.

Jazira, who participated in the event for the first time after two-time AFC Cup champs Faisali declined, lost to former AFC Cup champs Syria’s Jeish 1-0.

The second-tier Asian club competition was won by Syria’s Jeish in its inaugural edition in 2004. Jordan’s Faisali won in 2005 and 2006, and Shabab Urdun in 2007.
