ACL or J.League? Urawa won the toughest match, while Kawasaki throw up? of 0-4 defeat.



The 26th week of the J.league is the middle day of the home and away of AFC Champions league quarter final for Urawa Reds and Kawasaki Frontale. The league leader Urawa beat the current-best-team Yokohama F-Marinos by the score of 1-0 in Yokohama. The match was so tough that best players payed thier full effort to the match. On the other, the mid of the league Kawasaki gave absenses to 8 best players of starting 11 from last Wednesday's ACL. The result was the complete loss by Kashiwa Raysol. The answer for ACL Q-final will be on next Wedney, and another answer will be told on 1st December.

J-League has so-called "best-member-regulation" that the starting eleven of the league and league cup match MUST include 6 members who played from the start at least one match of the predeceasing five matches. Today's Kawasaki does not violate the regulation.
