Pari NN come back in Tula to remain as RPL team

RPL Relegation Playoff
2nd leg

Arsenal Tula 0-2 FC Pari Nizhny Novgorod
Goals: Pari NN – Bozhenov (18), Botaka-Ioboma (OG 58)

Kirill Bozhenov, who joined Pari NN squad permanently only this winter, became the player, who made all teams goals in the relegation playoff. As his efforts were not enough to avoid defeat in home fixture against Arsenal, in Tula he doubled his influence. Bozhenov scored from Mateo Stamatov cross in the first half, while in the second he repeated the thing from first leg, as his pass was redirected by Erving Botaka-Ioboma to the own net again.

Pari NN won 3-2 on aggregate to stay in RPL for fourth straight season, while Arsenal will start third year as First League side since 2021/22 relegation from top division.
