Storied club? Financial issues in the 90s and a relegation? Last place in the league? Messed up stadium? Fiorentina fans, if you're looking for a team in Finland, this should feel like falling into your own bed (which, because you're a Fiorentina fan, you've covered in venomous snakes).
🇫🇮 Things have gone from bad to worse for FC Haka, one of Finland's most storied clubs, who finished last in the Veikkausliiga & were relegated.
Now a teenager has set fire to their stadium, burning down an entire stand, damaging the artificial turf & causing significant costs!
