Urawa Reds maintained their strong start to the new J.League season with a 1-0 win over Nagoya Grampus on Saturday.

Reds went into the match at Saitama Stadium having begun the campaign with a victory over champions Sanfrecce Hiroshima the previous weekend, and a goal from Tomoya Ugajin in the 54th minute was enough to make it two out of two for Mihailo Petrovic's side.

The win means Urawa joins FC Tokyo, Yokohama F. Marinos and Cerezo Osaka as the only teams with perfect records after two rounds of the new season, and Petrovic can see his players' confidence growing already.
