Officially.. postponement of Al Nassr vs Al Wasl match in AFC Champions League Elite

The federation clarified, through its official website, that it has been decided to reschedule the match between the two teams in the Western Conference, which was originally set to take place on Monday, October 26, 2026.

The match was scheduled to take place at King Saud University Stadium in the capital Riyadh, with anticipation for the participation of Al Nassr and Al Wasl in the third round of the AFC Champions League Elite.

The decision came after reports indicated, on Sunday morning, that Al Wasl Club had contacted the AFC to request a postponement of the match due to the team's inability to travel to the Kingdom.

Reports indicate that travel difficulties affected foreign professional players, preventing the Emirati team from arriving on time and disrupting their preparations for the upcoming match.

The official statement did not include an alternative date for the match, with details of the encounter to be determined later according to the new arrangements of the AFC Champions League Elite.

The AFC has announced the postponement of the match between Al Nassr and Al Wasl, which was set to take place in the third round of the AFC Champions League Elite for the 2026-2027 season, to a new date that has not yet been specified.
