Gamba Osaka are the new kings of Asia

November 13, 2008

Gamba Osaka have comprehensively defeated Adelaide United to claim the Asian Champions League title for 2008. The team from Japan scored two goals in the first half to take the aggregate to 5-0 after they had won 3-0 in Osaka last week.

For Adelaide to make the final was an achievement in itself as they have a lot smaller operating budget compared to their JLeague opponents.
