unbeaten in the top level domestic league. Only scant details are
known on the series which comprised the entire 1990, 1991, 1992 and
1993 seasons.

NB: apparently ASEC had won 11 and drawn 1 of their first 12 matches;
and had last lost a league match on the final day of the 1989 season.
In round 14, immediately after losing their invincibility record,
ASEC trounced Man by 11-0 (8 goals by Ben Badi, a record), their
record win and the record win in the history of the Ivorian league,
later equalled by Africa Sports (who beat CO Korhogo 11-0 in 1999).
