Leo Ceara bagged two goals and two assists Saturday as J. League first-division leaders Yokohama F Marinos maintained their grip on the top spot by thrashing Kashiwa Reysol 4-0.

The Brazilian striker doubled his J1 goal tally after netting for Kevin Muscat's side in each half at Nissan Stadium.

He set up Takuma Nishimura's 17th-minute opener with a clever back heel, then scored his first goal two minutes later, tapping in after compatriot Elber intercepted the ball and laid it off inside the area.
