Urawa stop Kashima in the NATIONAL MATCH





Urawa Reds stopped Kashima Antlers 15-match winning streak in the J-League.
It is the right place and the right team that stops Kashima. The victory is a revenge after Kashima run away with 2007 title from Urawa on 24th November in the same stadium.
Kashima prooved their strength in front of 50,000 Urawa supporters but the short interval from ACL tough match Wednesday stopped thier motion. Kashima has kept winning in league and the cups matches and it is the first loss since they lost against Gamba Osaka on the last October of the League Cup match.

After playing six matches each, Dragan Stojkovic's new Nagoya goes to the top this week. Today is a start of tight 2008 race.
