“Horodenko's Probiy leads the Ukrainian Second League and reached the 1/8 finals of the Ukrainian Cup in its debut professional season. The team won 8 league matches and won three cup games.

Leadership in the Second League of the Ukrainian Championship and reaching the 1/8 finals of the Ukrainian Football Cup are the results of the first part of the 2024-25 football season for Proboi, which received the status of a professional club less than six months ago.

Details

Following the first part of the season, Probiy shared first place in its group with Rukh-2 from Lviv, scoring 26 points in 12 matches (8 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses).  In the Ukrainian Cup, the team reached the 1/8 finals. And the very fact of reaching the 1/8 finals is already a great success for the Second League team, which only this year began its journey in professional football. In total, Horodenka's players played 4 games in the Ukrainian Cup, winning three of them, including the Premier League, and narrowly losing to the Bukovyna from Chernivtsi with a score of 0:1.

At the beginning of the season, we could not even dream of such results. Reaching the 1/8 finals of the Ukrainian Cup and leading the league is a real breakthrough for our team. Of course, we would like to go further in the Cup, we always want to bring victories to our fans. But the main thing is that in this first year of playing professional football, we have shown and proved that we have a team that can achieve results. I thank the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the team's partners for the opportunity to play and bring joy to our fans

- says Volodymyr Kovaliuk, coach of the Probiy sports club.

The Perspectives branch of MHP's Western Hub, together with its strategic partner, the MHP for Community Charitable Foundation, has been a partner of NC Probiy for many years. Stable financial support from the partners helps the team's management to carry out high-quality management at the club: recruitment of experienced coaches and specialists, professional players, training camps, preparation of the stadium for home games, rental of transport for away matches, photo and video broadcasting of live games, etc.

At MHP, we are convinced that sport is not only a competition, but also a powerful tool for uniting people and developing young people. We understand how important the Probiy team is for the community, so we are happy to support them. The team's success is evidence of the  effectiveness of our joint efforts with the community and partners
