59 consecutive wins! The incredible streak of the Turkmen club Arkadag has come to an end

FC Arkadag from Turkmenistan has concluded its historic streak of 59 consecutive victories, losing 3-2 to Al Arabi from Kuwait.

Details. This streak, which became the longest in football history, has not been officially recognized by FIFA. Turkmenistan, known for its closed nature, has not provided sufficient information about its football club, casting doubt on the accuracy of the reported results.

The club managed to secure victories against teams from other countries; however, the defeat to Al Arabi marked a significant moment. Despite this, Arkadag was able to advance further in the tournament.

This successful performance earned the club the title of champion and the Turkmen Cup.
