In a groundbreaking triumph, Riyad Mahrez has led Al-Ahli to victory in the Asian Champions League Elite, marking a milestone for the Saudi Pro League side. The Algerian star, despite a reserved performance in the final against Japan's Kawasaki Frontale, proved influential throughout the tournament.
