Malaysia's JDT reach Asian Champions League quarter-finals
Japan's Vissel Kobe joined them in the last eight after beating South Korea's FC Seoul 2-1 in the second leg for a 3-1 aggregate win.
JDT did just enough to frustrate Sanfrecce in a scrappy second leg in Hiroshima.
Kosuke Kinoshita's 90th-minute penalty was not enough for Sanfrecce, who were also looking to reach the quarter-finals for the first time.
"To suffer today, to be able to keep the result in a really difficult game, to make history for the team, for the club -- very proud of everybody," said JDT midfielder Nacho Mendez.
