  • OFFICIAL PROGRAMME Shaikh Salman Bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa AFC President AFC MESSAGE Dear Friends
    OFFICIAL PROGRAMME Shaikh Salman Bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa AFC President AFC MESSAGE Dear friends, As President of the Asian Football Confederation I would like to congratulate both Al Ahli of the United Arab Emirates and Guangzhou Evergrande of China on the wonderful achievement in reaching the final of the AFC Champions League. This promises to be an exciting final which will provide a fitting climax to a record breaking season in this, the AFC’s pinnacle club competition. Never before have so many supporters attended AFC Champions League games and never before has the average attendance for the matches been so high. More than 2.25 million people have watched the 141 matches so far and the average attendance is almost 16,000. Those are extremely impressive and encouraging statistics. The supporters who have packed the stadia across this great continent - and those who have watched on television- have also been rewarded with some outstanding football - with many goals of remarkable quality. I am sure that the two legs of this final will live up to the great play and sportsmanship that has gone before in the matches played so far. Thanks must also go not only to our officials who have worked with such dedication throughout the AFC Champions League, but also to the other 47 competing clubs and the other 19 Member Associations for the role they play in making the event such a success. We must also recognise the two host Member Associations for the logistical support they provide for the final matches. I should also like to add my gratitude to our commercial partners, broadcasters and media who play such an important role in supporting the AFC Champions League each year, helping to grow its appeal not only in Asia but across the world.
