Dejected Al Wahda players feature on The National Sport front page on Wednesday, February 18 after their defeat to Al Sadd in the AFC Champions League play-off.

The Abu Dhabi side drew 4-4 with Al Sadd after a thrilling 120 minutes only to lose on penalties.

There was further disappointment for the UAE capital clubs as earlier in the evening, Al Jazira lost away at Bunyodkor 2-1 to end their Champions League hopes.
