Johor Darul Ta’zim and Kuching City
Friday
Johor Darul Ta’zim have set a world record for the longest unbeaten run in men’s domestic league football after beating Kuching City 3-0. The Malaysian champions reached 109 consecutive league matches without defeat, surpassing ASEC Mimosas’ 32-year-old record.
JDT had equalled the previous mark of 108 games in last season’s finale and had to wait until the new campaign to break it. The achievement accompanies a record 12 consecutive Malaysian league titles under the club’s dominant modern era.
