Leaders sink Niigata by 4 goals

Albirex Niigata 0-4 Kashiwa Reysol
J-1 League Game 31 @ Kashiwa Hitachi Stadium
3rd November 2011

Kashiwa outclassed Niigata by 4-0. All you can say is that Kashiwa showed their strength as leaders.
Niigata use 4-3-3 system to make up for Michel's suspenstion but this worked negatively. In the first half, Niigata had little chance to attack. They shoted only twice which were from set piece and conceded two goals. Kurosaki changed the system to their familiar 4-4-2 to break such circumstances from the start of 2nd half. They could improved their performance but they have absolutely no chance to score in front of mighty Kashiwa.

A good thing for Niigata today is the news 16th place Kofu was also defeated.
