Soccer-Reds thrash Sagan Tosu 6-1 to move six points clear

TOKYO, May 30 (Reuters) - Urawa Reds scored six second-half goals as the undefeated J-League leaders came from behind to thrash Sagan Tosu 6-1 away on Saturday and stretch their advantage to six points.

Trailing 1-0 at halftime after Kota Mizunuma had opened the scoring for the hosts in the 31st minute, Urawa drew level soon after the break through Yuki Muto.

Yosuke Kashiwagi put them ahead on hour mark before Shinzo Koroki, Slovenian striker Zlatan Ljubijankic, with a late double, and Tsukasa Umesaki took the Reds to 33 points with their 10th win in 13 matches.
