Leonardo da Silva Sousa's equalizer in the 53rd minute carried Al-Wahda to a series-opening 1-1 road draw with Al-Nassr.

Abdo Hamdallah scored for the hosts in the 17th minute.

At Dubai, United Arab Emirates (due to ongoing deteriorating relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran):

Ziyadh Al-Sahafi scored the game winner in the 71st minute as Al-Ittihad of Saudi Arabia held off Iran's Zob Ahan 2-1 in their series-opening contest.
