The Flags of Urawa Reds, AFC Champions League Semi-Final

I would not like to take a penalty in front of Urawa Reds’ supporters at their Saitama stadium, myself. Watch this shootout from an Asian Champions League semi-final against South Korea’s Seongnam Ilhwa last week, and marvel at the spectacle of the giant flags. It’s really no surprise they won, is it?

(By the way, we’ll be featuring the ultras from Japan throughout the week in photo daily.)
