Homematch for Tomsk FC "KDV": Opponents will be the Barnaul team
KDV Tomsk Secures Historic Victory in FONBET Cup of Russia
Tomsk-based football club KDV has made history by winning their first match in the FONBET Cup of Russia. On August 15, 2025, they defeated ANRI from Vladivostok with a convincing 4:0 scoreline, marking their first win in any competition since the arrival of new head coach Maxim Malakhovsky.
This victory comes as KDV finds itself in the mid-upper section of the LEON-Second League B (Russian Second League Division B Group 4) standings. With 17 matches played, they have managed 6 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses, scoring 27 goals and conceding 16, accumulating 24 points and currently holding the 7th position.
Recent league matches have seen KDV secure impressive victories. On August 17, they won 2-0 against Dynamo Barnaul at home, while their away match against Amkar Perm on August 10 ended in a 3-2 victory. Upcoming for KDV is a match against Dynamo Vladivostok in the Russian Cup on August 20, a rematch of their recent FONBET Cup success.
The FONBET Cup victory is significant as it is the first win for KDV under Malakhovsky's leadership. Prior to his arrival, Konstantin Emelev was the head coach, and Ilya Izotov served as the interim coach, bringing two consecutive victories to the team.
As of now, KDV has 21 points, and they are looking to build on their recent form. Their next league match will be against Dinamo-Barnaul on August 17 at 18:00 at the "Temp" stadium. The last time these two teams met, the match ended in a 0:0 draw. Dinamo-Barnaul, currently in 5th place with 26 points, boasts a record of seven wins, five draws, and four losses.
Maxim Malakhovsky, a three-time Second League champion, will be hoping to guide KDV to further success as they aim to climb the league standings. With their recent performances, KDV has shown they are a competitive force to be reckoned with in the league.
KDV's historical win in the FONBET Cup of Russia signifies their first success in a European-league, as they now look to replicate this form in their upcoming European-league matches, potentially including the premier-league in the future. In their next league match, against Dinamo-Barnaul, they aim to continue their upward trajectory in sports, following their recent impressive run in football.
