KUALA LUMPUR, June 18 (Reuters) - Former winners Jeonbuk Motors of South Korea and Japan's Gamba Osaka will face off in the quarter-finals of the AFC Champions League.
Jeonbuk, winners of Asia's premier club tournament in 2006, will host the first leg in Jeonju in late August before travelling to Japan for the second leg in mid-September to face the 2008 champions.
Thursday's draw in Kuala Lumpur also pitted Japan's Kashiwa Reysol against four-times reigning Chinese champions Guangzhou Evergrande, now under the guidance of Brazilian Luiz Felipe Scolari following the surprise sacking of Fabio Cannavaro.
Guangzhou, winners of the tournament in 2013, will host the second leg.
