As soon as Asani got in, he scored the winning goal...Gwangju beats Shanghai and cruises to ACL

Professional soccer Gwangju FC defeated China's Shanghai Shenhua in the Asian Champions League to keep the East Asian group in second place.

Gwangju, led by head coach Lee Jung-hyo, beat Shanghai 1-0 in the fifth game of the tournament on its home turf with Asani's shot that broke out as soon as he was replaced in the 13th minute of the second half.

Gwangju, which accumulated 12 points with 4 wins and 1 loss, announced its possibility to advance to the round of 16.

At the same time, Pohang lost 0-2 in Yokohama, Japan, making it impossible to guarantee the round of 16.

Pohang, which operated its rotation in preparation for this weekend's Korea Cup final, ended the game scoreless as Kim Myung-joon's penalty was blocked in the second half.
