SAITAMA —

Urawa Reds overcame the early loss of Keita Suzuki to finally stop the rot with a comfortable 3-0 defeat of Albirex Niigata in the J-League first division on Sunday. Takahito Soma opened the scoring just before halftime and defender-turned-midfielder Marcus Tulio Tanaka added the second before Yuichiro Nagai completed the Reds’ first win of the season and first under new boss Gert Engels.
