Urawa Red Diamonds defender Marius Hoibraten has backed his team mates to sustain their bid for the club's first J.League title in 17 years after helping the Japanese outfit claim the Asian Champions League crown on Saturday with a victory over Al-Hilal.
Reds secured a 2-1 aggregate win and a third Asian title for the country's best-supported team with a 1-0 victory over the defending champions from Saudi Arabia at Saitama Stadium, courtesy of an own goal by Al-Hilal's Andre Carrillo.
Hoibraten believes Maciej Skorza's team can be among the challengers for this season's title after the morale-boosting victory over their Riyadh-based opponents."In the two games against Al-Hilal we showed that we're a solid team, but we have a lot of qualities. We have to take one game at a time but if we can keep staying solid we can get there."
