Perth Glory snare first ever Asian Champions League point in six-goal thriller against Shanghai Shenhua

Perth Glory have secured their first point in the Asian Champions League after a 3-3 thriller against Shanghai Shenhua in Qatar on Tuesday morning.

The Australians established a two-goal lead by mid-way through the second half after a pair of magnificent free-kick goals from Bruno Fornaroli and Carlo Armiento.

But Shanghai hit back with a quick-fire double from Giovanni Moreno and Yu Hanchao's go-ahead goal to put the Chinese Super League side in front with 17 minutes to play.

However, Glory dug deep snare a late equaliser with veteran Neil Kilkenny converting from the penalty spot in the 86th minute to earn Richard Garcia's side a point.
