Japanese double winners Kashima Antlers continued their red-hot start to the season with a 6-0 demolition of Vietnam's Nam Dinh in the Asian Champions League on Wednesday night.

Doubles from Masashi Motoyama and Marquinhos and goals from Yuzo Tashiro and Danilo made it two wins out of two for Kashima in Group F and completed a triumphant night for Japanese clubs as Gamba Osaka picked up its first win in Group G with a thrilling 4-3 defeat of South Korea's Chunnam Dragons.

Kashima came into the match on the back of three wins in as many competitive games this term, sandwiching last week's 9-1 win away to Krung Thai Bank between J. League victories over Consadole Sapporo and Tokyo Verdy.

And Oswaldo Oliveira's men were never in danger of seeing their perfect start ended as they controlled from start to finish at a sparsely populated Kashima Stadium.
