Yokohama F. Marinos collected their first point of the Asian Champions League with a 1-1 draw to champions Guangzhou Evergrande on Wednesday night at Nissan Stadium.

The Emperor's Cup holders, who were thumped 3-0 away to Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors last month in their first match of the campaign, held on for a point against Marcello Lippi's side after Jin Hanato struck in the first half with Alessandro Diamanti leveling shortly before the break.

In the evening's other Group F affair, Melbourne Victory drew 2-2 at home to 2006 champions Jeonbuk for their first point of the competition.
