Ivan Toney celebrated his first trophy with Al-Ahli as they won the Asian Champions League, defeating Kawasaki Frontale 2-0. The victory marked Al-Ahli's first title in this competition, and they became the third Saudi club to achieve this feat. Toney, who joined from Brentford, had a strong season, contributing significantly to his team's success. Former Liverpool star Firmino shined by scoring six goals and assisting two in the final, expressing pride in the team's mentality and achievement. The win signifies a rebound for Al-Ahli, previously relegated but revitalized after investment from the Public Investment Fund.
Firmino was named the AFC Champions League's most valuable player after scoring six goals in this season's competition and playing a key role in the final.
This title win shows us to have a monster mentality. We always believed we could be champions and we have done it.
