SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - Dejan Damjanovic scored two late goals to give Suwon Bluewings a 3-0 win over Jeonbuk Motors on Wednesday in the first leg of the Asian Champions League quarterfinals.

Jeonbuk, the 2016 champion and 21 points ahead of Suwon in South Korea’s K-League, was expected to win at Jeonju World Cup Stadium but conceded three goals in the final 15 minutes.

Damjanovic, a 37-year-old forward from Montenegro, has scored 34 goals in the competition, only two behind all-time leader Lee Dong-gook - who came on as a second-half substitute for Jeonbuk.



Han Eui-gwon also scored for Suwon.

The winner will face either Kashima Antlers of Tianjin Quanjian in the semifinals.
