Despite the coronavirus pandemic, the new football season started in Tajikistan on Saturday.
FC Istiklol from the capital Dushanbe won the traditional Supercup at the season opener 2-1 against FK Khujand. The game in the central stadium of the capital Dushanbe took place against the announcement of precautionary measures without spectators.
The regular league games should then start on Sunday. So far there are no coronavirus infected people in Tajikistan, according to official information.
This makes the Central Asian country one of the few in which football is still played despite the spread of the corona virus. In Belarus, the football games of the national championship continue despite widespread criticism from abroad, and Nicaragua and Burundi are still playing.
