Arman FC delivered one of their strongest results of the Roshan Afghanistan Champions League season with a 4–0 victory over Toofan Herat, while Ariana Khost and Khurasan Faryab shared the points in a 1–1 draw.

Arman took all three points from their meeting with Toofan after scoring four times without reply.

Malcolm Shaw was named Player of the Match for Arman following his performance in the emphatic victory.

The result was a significant one for Arman, who entered the latest round in the lower half of the standings, while Toofan were looking to build on the seven points they had collected through the opening six weeks.

There was no winner in the other match as Ariana Khost were held to a 1–1 draw by Khurasan Faryab.

Khurasan goalkeeper Lal Mohammad Rahimi was selected as Player of the Match after his performance against the Khost side.

The point was particularly important for Khurasan following a difficult opening six weeks in which they had collected only one point.

Ariana, meanwhile, entered the latest round among the group pursuing leaders Sorkh Poshan Khwafi after taking 13 points from their first six matches.

The two results add another four completed fixtures to the developing picture of the Roshan Afghanistan Champions League season, with the standings beginning to take shape as clubs move beyond the sixth week of competition.
