Venue

edit

The AFC decided that the final would be hosted by one of the finalists.[2] This format is the same as the 2009 and 2010 editions. On 7 June 2011, the draw for the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final was made. For the final, the winner of semi-final 1 (played between the winners of quarter-finals 2 and 4) would be the home team, while the winner of semi-final 2 (played between the winners of quarter-finals 1 and 3) would be the away team.[3] Therefore Nasaf Qarshi were the home team, and Al-Kuwait were the away team.
