Record-breaking draws: seven games and seven 1-1 results in Tuscany

There are records in soccer that have nothing to do with wins, goals scored, or winning streaks. In particular, there is a unique statistic from Tuscany featuring Andrea Bellini, the longtime captain of Pistoiese and the player with the most appearances in the club’s history.

The current coach of Casale Fattoria di Prato—a team competing in the Prima Categoria league—has neither won nor lost since the start of the season: every match has ended in a draw. The most surprising fact, however, is not just the streak of consecutive draws. All seven matches played so far—including two Cup games and five league matches—have ended with the exact same score: 1-1.

Seven matches, seven draws, and seven times the same result. A streak that has unfolded across different matches, with different opponents and situations, but with a script that has ultimately repeated itself without exception. A decidedly unusual statistic that has all the makings of capturing fans’ attention and is being touted as a possible world record.

For Bellini, who as a player wrote important chapters in Pistoiese’s history, this is a season opener destined to be remembered. A truly unique record, as we wait to see whether the next match will break the streak or add a new chapter to this story.
