'''Football Club Mariupol''' ({{langx|uk|Футбольний клуб "Маріуполь"}} {{IPA|uk|fʊdˈbɔlʲnɪj ˈklub mɐr⁽ʲ⁾iˈupolʲ||uk-Маріуполь.ogg}}) was a Ukrainian professional [[Association football|football]] club based in [[Mariupol]], that competed in the [[Ukrainian Premier League]]. The club ceased to exist as a result of the [[Siege of Mariupol]], during the [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine]].<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/62503419 | title='An act of bravery to restart football in Ukraine, but I'm worried' | work=BBC Sport | access-date=16 August 2022 | archive-date=16 August 2022 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220816024602/https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/62503419 | url-status=live }}</ref>

In 2023 the Brazilian club [[Associação Atlética Batel|AA Batel]], whose local community is more than 70% Ukrainian or of Ukrainian descent, adopted the name, colours, and badge of the Ukrainian club.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/apr/25/fc-mariupol-reborn-brazil-aa-batel |title=War-torn FC Mariupol reborn in Brazil |work=[[The Guardian]] |date=2023-04-25 |accessdate=2023-04-25 |archive-date=28 May 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240528153812/https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/apr/25/fc-mariupol-reborn-brazil-aa-batel |url-status=live }}</ref> 

From 2002 to 2017, the club was named '''Illichivets Mariupol''' under which it participated in European competitions. It was renamed as part of [[decommunization in Ukraine]].

==History==
===Metalurh Zhdanov===
Previously the city of Mariupol hosted a football team that competed consistently in Ukrainian republican competitions among teams of physical culture (amateur teams). The first mentioning of a Mariupol team could be traced to 1936 when it lost to Dynamo Kryvyi Rih 0:5 as part of the [[1936 Soviet Cup]]. Next season, in 1937, it was seeded to play against another team from [[Berdyansk]] as part of the Ukrainian championship, but did not appear for the game and was eliminated. After that there is no evidence a team that represented the city until after [[World War II]]. After the war, Mariupol sometimes was represented by two teams, but usually the main was named Metalurh Zhdanov. At the end of 1958 it was renamed into Avanhard Zhdanov.

===Azovstal and Azovets===
{{also|1959 Football Championship of the Ukrainian SSR}}
Football Club Mariupol traces its history to 1960, when it was established as '''Azovstal''' based on a former two teams of physical culture (a type of Soviet amateur clubs) [[FC Avanhard Zhdanov]] and [[FC Shakhtar Rutchenkove]]. 

The new team of masters Azovstal Zhdanov sponsored by the local [[Azovstal iron and steel works]] was admitted to Soviet competitions for teams of masters in Class B (at that time the second division). It was eliminated soon in 1964. After skipping one season the club again was admitted for the 1966 Soviet competitions for teams of masters in Class B, now as '''Azovets'''. During that time the club stayed in professional competitions a little bit longer and in 1971 changed its name to more recognizable '''Metalurh'''. However, soon after changing its name in 1973, the club again was relegated and now for a much longer period of time.

===Lokomotyv and Novator===
Missing the 1974 season, the club returned to republican competitions in 1975 as '''Lokomotyv''', sponsored now by "Azovmash" which specializes in production of [[railroad car]]s as well as mining and metallurgical heavy equipment. Soon before the final [[collapse of the Soviet Union]], the club already playing as '''Novator''' was relegated in 1989 to Ukrainian amateur competitions. In 1991 Novator became a champion of the Ukrainian football championship among amateur clubs. Due to reformation of the Ukrainian football competitions, the new amateur champion was admitted to the newly formed [[Ukrainian First League]].

===Ukrainian professional club in Mariupol===
After the [[dissolution of the Soviet Union]] in 1992, the club changed its name to old one '''Azovets''' (part of the Azovmash's SC Novator). In summer of 1995 it merged with [[FC Dynamo Luhansk]] and during following spring changed its name again to '''Metalurh'''.

FC Metalurh Mariupol changed its name to Illichivets during the winter break of the 2002–2003 season when the club was acquired by the Illich Steel and Iron Works.

Illichivets were relegated to [[Ukrainian First League]] in the 2006–07 season after finishing 15th (out of 16). However, they returned to the [[Ukrainian Premier League]] the following season after finishing as champions in the [[2007–08 Ukrainian First League]].

Due to the 2014 [[Russian military intervention in Ukraine (2014–present)|Russian military intervention in Ukraine]], the club was forced to play its home games in [[Dnipro]]petrovsk during the 2014-15 season.

===FC Mariupol===

In 2017 as part of the ongoing [[decommunization in Ukraine|decommunization process of Ukraine]], the club changed its name of Illichivets to simply FC Mariupol, officially adopting on 14 June 2017<ref>[http://www.champion.com.ua/football/2017/06/14/688597/ Illichivets announced about renaming into Mariupol and proposed three choices of its new emblem (Іллічівець оголосив про перейменування в Маріуполь і запропонував три варіанти нової емблеми)] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170616122135/http://www.champion.com.ua/football/2017/06/14/688597/ |date=16 June 2017 }}.
