Sunday, 25 April 2010


TOKYO, Apr 24 (AFP): Shimizu S-Pulse went top of the J-League on Saturday with a lucky late win as front-runners Urawa Red Diamonds crashed to a 1-0 defeat to Jubilo Iwata.
Masaki Yamamoto's cross from the right went straight in in the 86th minute to give Shimizu a 2-1 win over Omiya Ardija. "I have a strange feeling because it was a cross, but a goal is a goal," said a jubilant Yamamoto.
