Sapporo manager Shuhei Yomoda praised Chanathip and Bothroyd, who once played for Thai League 1 champions SCG Muang Thong United. Having arrived in Japan earlier this month, Chanathip is playing for Sapporo on a 18-month loan deal from Muang Thong. Despite being two men down, Reds looked lively in the second half and substitute Zlatan Ljubijankic headed Tomoya Ugajin's cross against the right-hand post in the 54th minute.
