Al Seeb Club were the next to test Kuwait SC's resolve, with the Omani side taking the lead through Abdulaziz Al Maqbali in the 34th minute. Amr Abd El Fattah Ammouri drew Kuwait SC level two minutes before the break as the sides settled for a share of the points.

Quarter-final
Their last eight stage tie against Oman's Al Shabab Club was played as a single-leg tie and it was a thriller with Kuwait SC seemingly home and dry after taking a 4-0 lead.

Al Shabab, however, fought back to narrow make it 4-3 but Faisal Al Harbi's 90th minute strike calmed the nerves and took Kuwait SC into the final.

Semi-final
