SAITAMA -- Urawa Reds eased through to the semifinals of the Emperor's Cup with a convincing 2-0 win over Kawasaki Frontale on Saturday.

At Saitama Stadium 2002, midfielder Maric and defender Satoshi Horinouchi scored two second-half goals after the game swung in Urawa's favor with the sending off of Frontale defender Yusuke Mori at the tail end of the first half.

"I'm really happy to win and to do so at our home stadium," the 32-year-old Maric said.
