The New Saints' world-record winning run ends after draw

Welsh champions The New Saints saw their world-record winning run come to an end at 27 consecutive games after a 3-3 draw on Saturday.

TNS last month broke a 40-year-old record held by Johann Cruyff's Ajax team by winning their 27th game in all competitions, but they were tripped up late in their very next match.

The record-holders had a 3-1 lead with 10 minute to play, but Newtown were able to equalise from Jamie Price's 94th-minute free kick to secure a shock draw.

Despite the setback, The New Saints still have a 21-point lead atop the Welsh Premier League table.
