Football Club Krasava (Russian: ФК «Красава») was a Russian football team. It was formally licensed as based in Odintsovo, but actually played the home games in Moscow. It was founded in 2021 by Yevgeny Savin, a former player and commentator whose popular YouTube channel is called "Krasava". It was licensed for the third-tier Russian FNL 2 for the 2021–22 season.[1] The team was not able to find any pitch to play on anymore after its owner Savin expressed his disapprovals concerning the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[2] It did not receive the license for the 2022–23 season.[3] Savin then purchased Cypriot club Ypsonas FC and changed their name to Krasava ENY Ypsonas FC, also adopting a similar logo to FC Krasava.
