Al-Hilal FC
Nishimura was appointed to the second leg of the 2014 AFC Champions League Final in which Al-Hilal FC faced Western Sydney Wanderers FC. The match ended in a 0-0 upset, which saw the Western Sydney Wanderers crowned AFC champions courtesy of their 1-0 victory in the first leg. However, he gained heavy criticism over his mistakes. Which, some say, stripped Al Hilal from the cup.
