History

[edit]

The beginning

[edit]

Arkadag was formed in the run-up to the 2023 domestic season.[3] Many of the country's best players joined the club in a transfer window that was specially expanded to allow for this.[3] Competing in the Turkmenistan top flight right from its foundation,[4][5][6][7] they have undergone criticism by fans who have accused them of being favored by the authorities in the 2023 Ýokary Liga.[8][3]

In November, Wladimir Baýramow became the new manager of FK Arkadag, receiving a one-year contract.[9] Also in this month the team logo with the image of an Akhal-Teke horse was presented.[10]

Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow, second President of Turkmenistan, the team founder.

On 3 December, Arkadag clinched their first championship title in the Turkmenistan Higher League, by defeating Altyn Asyr 4–0, and won all 24 league matches.[11] The team scored a total of 72 points with a goal difference of 83–17. The club's and league top scorer with 27 goals was Didar Durdyev.[12][13] They also secured place in the 2024–25 AFC Champions League Two qualifiers.[14][15][16][17] On 24 December 2023, Wladimir Baýramow guided Arkadag to their second trophy, defeating Ahal FK 3–0 in Turkmenistan Cup final at the Arkadag Stadium.[18][19] For the team's successful performance in the 2023 season, the team was gifted a MAN bus.[20][21][22]

In June 2023, Arkadag was licensed to participate the AFC Challenge League.[23] On 7 October 2024, defending champions Arkadag successfully retained their League title after a 5-1 victory over Nebitçi.[24]

In the AFC Challenge League, Arkadag got into the group with Kuwait giants Al-Arabi SC and reigning Maldives and Kyrgyz champions Maziya and FC Abdysh-Ata Kant, respectively. [25] Their first match was a 2–1 win against Maziya SRC in Al Kuwait Sports Club Stadium in Kuwait City. [26] On 29 October 2024, FK Arkadag recorded an upset over FC Abdysh-Ata Kant in the AFC Challenge League by winning 2–0. [27][28]

On 1 November 2024, the team suffered its first defeat since its establishment against Al-Arabi of Kuwait on the third day of the group stage of the Challenge League, to end a streak of 61 consecutive wins in all official competitions (50 in the Ýokary Liga, 9 in the Turkmenistan Cup, and 2 in the AFC Challenge Cup), marking the longest winning streak in football history. Additionally, the club was only one match away from equaling the world record unbeaten streak of 62 matches, held by Celtic between 1915 and 1917.
