Turan Tovuz repeated the record in the Azerbaijan Premier League.
Oku.Az reports that the Professional Football League (PFL) has published information on this matter.
It was reported that the team coached by Kurban Berdiyev achieved this by not conceding a single goal in the first five rounds.
For the seventh time in the 32-year history of the national championships, a team did not see a single ball in its goal in the first 5 games.
The first time the Baku Constructor achieved this was in the 1993/1994 season. Khazri did it in the 1995/1996 season, Dinamo Baku in the 1998/1999 season. Only one team, Khazar Lankaran, signed two such series at the beginning: in the 2007/2008 and 2010/2011 seasons. Before Turan Tovuz, the last team not to concede a goal in 5 opening matches was Gabala. In the 2016/2017 season, Dmitry Bezotosny went down in history as the first goalkeeper of the legionnaires not to concede a goal in the first 5 rounds of the championship. If Turan Tovuz went down in history as the author of the seventh series, then Ivan Konovalov became the second foreign goalkeeper after Bezotosny.
It should be noted that Turan Tovuz lost points only in the match against Neftchi with a 0-0 draw. The Westerners then defeated “Sumgayit”, “Qarabag” and “Sabail” by one goal, and “Kepaz” by three goals without reply.
