Long-serving Urawa Reds midfielder Keita Suzuki won every domestic title on offer in the Japanese game before recently deciding to call time on his 16-year playing career.
But the 34-year-old former Japan international says that helping Reds avoid relegation to the second tier in 2011 beats winning the 2007 Asian Champions League along with the other four domestic titles.
"The matches when we became champions really stick in my mind. They were massive both from the club's perspective and on a personal level as a player," Suzuki told a press conference held in Saitama on Sunday to mark his retirement as a player.
