Tai Po FC wore black arm bands and stood in silence ahead of their match in Asian club competition in Sydney on Thursday.
The club faced Australian side Macarthur FC away in the AFC Champions League Two, the second-tier club tournament in Asian football.
Tai Po’s players wore black arm bands and both teams stood in solemn silence ahead of kickoff at Campbelltown Sports Stadium outside Sydney.
Tai Po’s Brazilian captain Igor Sartori declined to celebrate after putting his side ahead in the 24th minute, instead putting his hands together in prayer.
However, the west Sydney side came from behind with two goals from Luke Vickery in the 50th and 70th minutes to edge out the fighting Tai Po FC. (AFP)
