Jordan side Faisali reached the final of the Asian Confederations Cup (AFC Cup), after beating Al-Wehdat, led by Egyptian coach Ismail Youssef, 2-1 on Monday night in Amman.

Moayed Abou Keshk, 30, and Hasouna Al-Sheikh, 59, scored in both sides of the break to seal the victory while Raafat Ali scored from the spot Al-Wehdat's consolation goal in the 70th minute.

Ali was sent off after his goal for an unsporting behavior towards the fans.

Faisali, the defending champions, got through to the final game on a 3-2 aggregate as the first leg ended in a 1-1 draw.

They will face the winner of Chabab of Jordan and Lebanon's Nejmeh, who will meet on Tuesday.
