ACL 2 schedules a fresh kick: Al-Nassr vs Al-Wasl dates confirmed for April
ACL 2 clash: Al-Nassr travels to Al-Wasl for the April opener.

What you need to know

According to sports reports, fresh dates have been set for the AFC Champions League 2 clash between Al-Nassr of Saudi Arabia and Al-Wasl of the United Arab Emirates.

Originally, the tie was scheduled for March 3 and March 10 as the home-and-away quarterfinals of ACL 2, but the matches were postponed due to Iranian strikes on several Arab countries.

The Saudi newspaper Al-Jazirah reported that AFC officials have now confirmed a new schedule for the Al-Nassr–Al-Wasl ties to be played in April.

According to the report, Al-Nassr will visit Al-Wasl on Tuesday, April 7, with the return leg a week later on April 14.

The winner will advance to the semifinals to face either Al-Arabi of Qatar or Al-Hussein Irbid of Jordan, who themselves meet in the quarterfinals.

The ACL 2 ties are set to reignite cross-border rivalry as clubs chase a continental title.

Punchline (in the style of a top comedian): Timing is everything in football, and in calendars too; this release date is apparently sponsored by the word “delayed.”

Punchline 2: If this schedule gets any tighter, the players might need a GPS to locate the ball on April 14.
