Soviet Second League The Soviet Second League was the third highest division of Soviet football , below the Soviet First League . The division lasted from the inception of Soviet league football in 1936 to the dissolution of USSR in 1991.Overview The League was established in 1936, but was discontinued after the 1937 season for over 15 years. The experimental edition of the League was introduced in 1946. But the consistent League takes its roots from 1963. Prior to 1990, the league was divided into multiple regional zones and the top finishers of those zones would take part in an additional mini-tournament to determine which teams get promoted to the Soviet First League . In 1991, the regional zones became a part of Soviet Second League B , while the Soviet Second League was split into 3 major regional zones, West, Center, and East. The group winners of these zones would now qualify for the Soviet First League. The most titles of the League won was two by 11 different teams out of various now independent republics. The last winners of the League were FC Karpaty Lviv , FC Asmaral Moscow , and FC Okean Nakhodka . Between 1960 and 1970 football competitions in Class B were split by republican principle at first as tier two, that as tier three, and at the end in 1970 it was downgraded to the auxiliary tier four. Each competition had multiple number of groups that were known as zones. In 1970-1971 the Soviet league system was restructured for lower leagues and Class B competitions were discontinued. Republican competitions were conducted with the Soviet Second League which consisted of multiple groups. There was no explicit designation of zones as they were simply numerated. Republican competitions continued to be conducted among collective of physical culture and were considered as amateur.Names 1936-1937 Group V *1936-1937 Group G *1936-1937 Group D and Group of Cities of the Far East 1946-1946 Third Group 1963-1969 Class B 1970-1970 Second Group *1970-1970 Class B 1971-1989 Second League 1990-1991 Buffer League *1990-1991 Second League BWinners Group V Third Group Class B Second Group (Class A) Second League All-time table (top 20) There were over 520 teams that played in the Soviet Second League.Team Republic Seasons First season Last season Played Won Drawn Lost Goals for Goals against Points1 1st 2nd 3rd Bukovina Chernovtsy Ukraine 26 1963 1989 1175 508 318 349 1466 1115 1842 Polesie Zhitomir Ukraine 24 1963 1988 1086 455 310 321 1294 986 1675 Druzhba Maikop Russia 28 1963 1990 1085 470 243 372 1374 1123 1653 Tselinnik Tselinograd Kazakhstan 26 1964 1990 974 476 215 283 1360 968 1643 Neftyanik Fergana Uzbekistan 23 1963 1989 908 479 178 251 1506 870 1615 Metallurg Lipetsk Russia 24 1963 1990 948 448 242 258 1281 855 1586 Khimik Dzhambul Kazakhstan 27 1963 1990 1013 446 242 325 1439 1127 1580 Krivbass Krivoi Rog Ukraine 22 1963 1988 1003 428 295 280 1267 967 1579 Sudostroitel Nikolaev Ukraine 23 1963 1989 1043 425 295 323 1257 1003 1570 Zakarpatie Uzhgorod Ukraine 26 1963 1989 1155 426 291 438 1235 1288 1569 Niva Vinnitsa Ukraine 22 1963 1990 1002 427 286 289 1230 885 1567 Podolie Khmelnitskiy Ukraine 24 1963 1988 1084 404 286 394 1191 1167 1498 Mashuk Piatigorsk Russia 24 1936 1989 916 431 202 283 1224 953 1495 Volyn Lutsk Ukraine 27 1963 1990 1206 386 332 488 1148 1416 1490 Avangard Rovno Ukraine 25 1963 1988 1113 388 309 416 1097 1152 1473 Sokol Saratov Russia 24 1963 1990 923 421 209 293 1416 1065 1472 Zenit Izhevsk Russia 26 1963 1990 972 407 251 314 1279 988 1472 Spartak Kostroma Russia 23 1963 1988 891 399 260 232 1225 885 1457 Meliorator Chimkent Kazakhstan 24 1963 1990 918 418 202 298 1352 1018 1456 Kristall Kherson Ukraine 24 1963 1988 1076 387 289 400 1233 1270 1450
