The 30-year-old player from Turkmenistan managed to find the net directly from a corner with a swerve-filled shot; his second of the game and third of the competition

The name Olympic goal originated in 1924 when Argentina's Cesareo Onzari scored in this way against Uruguay, who had just won the Olympic title.

Nasaf now sit in second place in the Group D table with seven points, just two ahead of Al-Ahli who still have to play one game.
