FC Mostransgaz Gazoprovod (Russian : Футбольный клуб "Мострансгаз" Газопровод) is a defunct Russian association football club based in Moscow. Founded in 2000 in Moscow as "Dynamo-MGO-Mostransgaz". [1] The club changed the name to "Mostransgaz" for the next two seasons (2001-2002).

Russian is an East Slavic language, which is official in the Russian Federation, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, as well as being widely used throughout Eastern Europe, the Baltic states, the Caucasus and Central Asia. It was the de facto language of the Soviet Union until its dissolution on 25 December 1991. Although, nowadays, nearly three decades after the breakup of the Soviet Union, Russian is used in official capacity or in public life in all the post-Soviet nation-states, as well as in Israel and Mongolia, the rise of state-specific varieties of this language tends to be strongly denied in Russia, in line with the Russian World ideology.
