(Reuters) - Kazakhstan's league resumed on Wednesday after a three and a half month break due to the coronavirus pandemic and despite a recent surge in infections which forced some coaches to field weakened teams.
The matches, played without spectators, were preceded by a minute's applause for medical workers. The coronavirus outbreak has infected more than 22,000 people and killed 188 in the Central Asian country.
The two-times Kazakh champions are top with nine points from four games, two points ahead of Astana, who won six titles in a row from 2014-19, and Tobol.
