United City suffered another brutal defeat in Group I of the AFC Champions League, this time at the hands of Japanese side Kawasaki Frontale, 8-0, Friday, July 2 at the Lokomotiv Stadium in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
It looked like the Philippines Football League titleholders were poised to put up a good fight through the first half-hour until Kaoru Mitoma struck the opener in the 33rd minute before Ryota Oshima made it 2-0 for Kawasaki just before halftime.
The floodgates opened the second half as United City’s defense had no answers for last year’s JLeague 1 winners by unleashing six goals on their way to staying unbeaten in the group stage of Asia’s premier club competition.
