FC Mziuri (Georgian: ) was a Georgian football club based in the town of Gali, Abkhazia, Georgia.
During the Soviet period, Mziuri won both the Georgian League and Supercup.
Later in the early 1990s, they took part in first three seasons of the top national league before suspending their activities due to political tensions in the region which turned into a full-fledged war.
Mziuri were a member of the Georgian republican championship (tier 4) for years.
The late 1970s are considered their golden period.
In 1977, the club achieved the double, winning the league for the first time and clinching the Supercup after a 10 victory over Nadikvari.
In 1979, Mziuri won the silver followed by bronze medals a year later.
Twice during this time, the team also reached the national cup final.
When Georgia broke away from Soviet football in February 1990, unlike fellow Abkhazian club Dinamo Sukhumi who opted to continue taking part in the Soviet league system, Mziuri chose to join a Georgian league and qualified for an Umaglesi Liga inaugural season.

Croveo is a frazione of the comune (municipality) of Baceno in the province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, in the Italian region of Piedmont.
Croveo is located 1.8 kilometres (1.1 mi) from Baceno, 40 kilometres (25 mi) from Verbania, and 113 kilometres (70 mi) from Turin, the capital city of Piedmont.
Croveo is known for its natural landscape, such as its falesia (a cliff used for rock climbing) and many walking trails.
Croveo is historically associated with witches and the witch trials that took place there during the 16th century.
This earned the hamlet the unofficial names of Paese delle Streghe (Town of the Witches in Italian) and Striogn at Crf (Wizards of Croveo in Walser dialect).
The Balma del Capretto (Shelter of Baby Goat ) in Croveo is one of several prehistoric painted rock shelters in the Ossola valley.
The name of the archaeological site comes from the fact that, when discovered, a baby goat was found inside the shelter.
The painting represents a hunting scene and its subjects are two quadruped animals and a series of spirals.
The exact age of the site is unknown but is presumed to be in the period between the Middle Neolithic and the Middle Copper Age.
The red figures painted in the cave have almost completely disappeared: to preserve their heritage, the area is not open to the public.
On 28 November 1958, during the excavations for the creation of the sewage system in the village of Croveo, a tomb dating back to the 2nd century BC was discovered.
In the tomb were found ceramic vases, a bronze clasp, an iron ax and sandals with nailed soles suitable for walking on mountain paths.
This suggests that the place was already inhabited in that period.
One of the reasons why this territory was populated in ancient times was its strategic position in between the two valleys of Devero Antigorio and Formazza.
The valleys made the settlement naturally protected.
Croveo and other municipal cities were established during the medieval era.
The village was officially recognized by the Regnum Italiae in 918 CE.
In 1215, Emperor Otto IV invested the De Rodia family with the Antigorio Valley.
Their possessions were later passed to the House of De Baceno, a family whose origins are narrated in Julius Caesar's De Bello Gallico.
The De Baceno's domination lasted until 1381 when the Visconti of Milan took power over the entire Ossola Valley as well as a large part of northern Italy.
In 1450 the possession passed to the House of Sforza.
In the 15th and 16th centuries the communitity of Croveo was affected by factional conflicts, plague epidemics and witch trials.
In 1595, during the Spanish occupation, the feudal manor was assigned to the House of Borromeo.
In 1647 the village of Croveo was declared exempt from enfeoffment.
In 1671 the Parish Church of Croveo was built and dedicated to the patron saint of the city.
Its churchyard was later built in honor of Don Amedeo Ruscetta (also known as prete viperaio) and a rock cross was made in memory of the plague epidemic that occurred in 1630.
In the early 18th century the citizens of Croveo used frequent changes in the bishopric to unsuccessfully request independence from the city of Baceno.
In the 16th century the De Rodis-Baceno family from Croveo sided with the Brenneschi faction in the regional conflict in northern Piedmont between the Guelph and Ghibelline.
