TOKYO, Mar 15 (AFP): Urawa Red Diamonds beat J-League champions Sanfrecce Hiroshima 2-0 Saturday, appearing unscathed on the pitch despite fans being embroiled in a racism scandal. The J-League on Thursday ruled that Urawa must play it's next home game-against Shimizu S-Pulse on March 23 -- in an empty stadium, unprecedented punishment after fans hoisted a "Japanese only" banner at a league game last week.
