FC Viikkarit
FC Viikkarit (previously FC Viikingit/2) are a Finnish association football team based in Vuosaari, East Helsinki. They play in the Kakkonen, the third tier of football in Finland, and are the reserve team of second-tier club FC Viikingit. The reserve team was established in 2007 and won promotion to the Kakkonen after the 2013 season. The team is managed by Alexei Zhukov, who had a long career as a player for the first team of the East Helsinki club. History FC Viikingit/2 was founded as the reserve team of FC Viikingit for the 2007 season, when the first team was promoted to the Veikkausliiga. The team started out in the third division (Kolmonen) and did moderately well, finishing between 5th and 9th in its first seasons up to 2011. For the 2012 season, the club began to invest more in the success of the reserve team. Cooperation between the first team, the reserve team and youth teams was increased, and former first-team players Alexei Zhukov and Vitali Suetov were hired to coach the reserves. As a result, the team did well in the 2012 Kolmonen, but the close-run season ended with FC Viikingit/2 in fourth place, just two points behind
