FC Karelia-Discovery (Russian: «Карелия-Дискавери») is a former Russian football team from Petrozavodsk. As of 2009 till 2011, it played in the Amateur Football League.
Karelia-Discovery had two groups of fans: Crazy Karjala - fans who held traditional in Russia far-right political views and 2 Sector (2oi Сектор) - a rare group of fans in Russia who held anti-fascist views. The groups were at war with each other. In 2010, during the North-West Cup Final, about 150 Zenit St.Petersburg hooligans attacked anti-fascist fans of Karelia. The attackers used traumatic pistols and pepper gas.[1] The match was interrupted. The replay took place a month later.[2]
