KUALA LUMPUR - Johor Darul Ta zim (JDT), the Southern Tigers, have shattered the world record for the longest unbeaten streak in domestic football history. On Friday, JDT defeated Kuching City 3-0 in the Sultan Ahmad Shah Cup, extending their unbeaten run to 109 matches. This surpasses the previous record of 108 consecutive wins set by Ivorian club ASEC Mimosas between 1989 and 1994.

The record-breaking victory came at the Sultan Ibrahim Stadium, where a passionate crowd witnessed JDT's relentless attack. Brazilian Marcos Guilherme opened the scoring just 11 minutes into the match with a well-executed goal. Oscar Arribas and Shahab Zahedi added to the tally later in the game, sealing JDT's historic achievement.
