JOHOR BARU: Johor Darul Ta’zim’s (JDT) dream of retaining the AFC Cup lies in tatters after they could only manage a 1-1 draw with India’s Bengaluru in the semi-final first leg.

Having won a historic third straight Super League title last week to add to their earlier Charity Shield and FA Cup triumphs, JDT were favourites to win on home ground at the Larkin Stadium on Wednesday.
