Scoop on the 2024/25 Season's Unsuccessful Comeback Bid by FC "SKA-Khabarovsk"
Alright, let's dive into the blazing hot season of FC "SKA-Khabarovsk"!'
In the 2024/25 season, this feisty team fought fiercely, drawing the line at a 6th-place finish in the Russian First League. Buckle up as we rewind to the past when Alexei Poddubskiy, the mastermind of the army men, orchestrated their historic ascent to the Russian Premier League back in 2017[3]. His trailblazing achievement significantly elevated the esteem of football in Khabarovsk.
Fast forward to February 2022, when Poddubskiy threw on the captain's armband again, stepping back into the fray as the team's sporting director, as Sergei Yuran packed his bags for "Khimki" during the winter break in the FNL. The task at hand? To bring the army men storming back into the RPL[4]. Unfortunately, Alexei Poddubskiy's daring second attempt at promotion proved less than victorious.*
Now, here's a fun fact! The army men's attempt fell short, as a veritable chasm kept them just outside the top spots needed for both automatic promotion and playoff qualification[1][2].
So, there you have it! The riveting tale of FC "SKA-Khabarovsk"'s bold, yet unsuccessful, comeback campaign in the 2024/25 season. Keep your eyes peeled for more sports updates, and remember, the game isn't over until the final whistle blows!
