Al-Nassr has demanded the AFC explain its postponement of the club's Champions League Elite match against Al-Wasl, backing the request with a file of documents.
- The AFC postponed the third-round match last week, citing Al-Wasl's inability to reach Saudi Arabia.
- Al-Nassr sent the AFC an official letter demanding legal grounds, attaching landing permits and official approvals for the Emirati delegation.
- The file included the private-plane flight number Al-Wasl provided before reversing its decision to depart for Riyadh.
- Al-Nassr said it would pursue all legal procedures with the Saudi Football Federation to secure the match points.
