AFC Champions League Review: Mixed fortunes for Suning stars Teixeira and Ramires
Jiangus Suning's Alex Teixeira and Ramires had contrasting fortunes while Tokyo benefited from a 'keeper error in the AFC Champions League.
Goalkeeper Bui Tan Truong had a moment to forget as Binh Duong fell 3-1 at Tokyo in the AFC Champions League, while Alex Teixeira scored his first Jiangsu Suning goal against Jeonbuk Motors in a match that saw Ramires sent off.
Tokyo, who lost their Group E opener to Jeonbuk, fell behind to Nguyen Anh Duc's first-half opener, but the hosts were level five minutes after the break through Nathan Burns.
Tan Truong then kept out Francisco Sandaza's penalty, only to go from hero to zero with a horror moment in the 68th minute.
A corner from the right looked easy enough for Tan Truong to deal with, but the goalkeeper misjudged his punch and headed into his own goal - Ryoichi Maeda's late strike compounding the Vietnamese side's misery.

Lee Dong-gook levelled shortly after the hour, only for quickfire goals from Jo and Wu Xi to put Suning in control.
