JEDDAH (Reuters) - Al-Hilal coach Jorge Jesus took a swipe at the match officials after his side's exit from the Asian Champions League Elite on Tuesday as the four-times winners lost 3-1 to fellow Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli in Jeddah.

The Riyadh-based outfit were eliminated as first-half goals from Roberto Firmino and Ivan Toney set Al-Ahli on the path to a victory that secured the club's first appearance in the final since 2012.
