The teams that will play in the final of the AFC Champions League in Asia have been decided.

The first finalist was a club from the UAE, Al Ain. Yesterday, it defeated Al Hilal (Saudi Arabia) on the aggregate of two matches: a 4-2 win on home field and a 1-2 defeat away.

The second semi-final pairing provided much more drama.

Ulsan from South Korea won 1-0 on home field. But in the second match, Yokohama Marinos were already winning 3-0 by the 30th minute. However, the visitors scored two goals in reply (3-2) and the hosts were left in the minority. With the score 3:3 on aggregate, the game went into overtime and penalty shootout. Yokohama's players were more successful there.

Thus, Yokohama Marinos (Japan) and Al Ain (UAE) will play in the final of the AFC Champions League. The stage consists of two matches: the rivals will meet in Yokohama on 11 May and Al Ain on 25 May.

Yokohama and Al Ain have never met each other before.
