Australian defender Eddy Bosnar scored the goal completed a Shimizu S-Pulse revival in the J-League yesterday.

The league leaders found themselves in an uncustomary position this season when they were 2-0 down against Kyoto Sanga but four second-half goals gave them their seventh win of the season and maintained their unbeaten start.

Bosnar netted in the 83rd minute to kill off the contest after both sides had earlier been reduced to ten men.

Jungo Fujimoto scored a double for Shimizu whilst Norwegian striker Frode Johnsen was also on the scoresheet.
