'''FC Alma-Ata''' ({{lang-kk|Алма-Ата Футбол Клубы}}) was a [[Kazakhstan|Kazakh]] [[association football]] club based in [[Almaty]] between 2000-2008.

== History ==
In 2000 the club was formed as ''FC Tsesna'' in [[Almaty]]. Tsesna played in the [[Kazakhstan First Division]] for the first time in 2003, finishing second and earning themselves promotion to the [[Kazakhstan Premier League]]. Following their promotion, the clubs management changed the clubs name to ''FC Alma-Ata'', finishing their debut season in 18th position under the management of [[Edgar Gess]]. The following season, first under Igor Romanov, and then Antonius Joore, the club improved and finished 13th. The 2006 was the clubs best season, again with Antonius Joore as their manager, the club finished 5th in the league and won the [[Kazakhstan Cup]] for the first time. As a result of their Cup win, they qualified for the [[UEFA Cup 2007-08|2007-08 UEFA Cup]] for the first time.

In July 2007 Alma-Ata appointed [[Arno Pijpers]] as a consultant, whilst he continued his [[Kazakhstan national football team|Kazakhstan National Team]] duties, in preparation for their debut [[UEFA Cup]] matches against Slovakian side [[FC ViOn Zlaté Moravce|ViOn Zlaté Moravce]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Pijpers accepts Alma-Ata role|url=http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/newsid=557783.html|website=www.uefa.com/|publisher=[[UEFA]]|accessdate=18 December 2015|date=3 July 2007}}</ref> Alma-Ata were defeat by ViOn Zlaté Moravce 4-2 over the two legs, whilst finishing 6th in the league and reaching the Last 32 of the Cup. The 2008 season was the clubs last season, as after finishing 8th in the League and as Cup runners-up, Alma-Ata declared themselves bankrupt and ceased operations, with the majority of the clubs staff joining [[FC Megasport]] before forming [[FC Astana|FC Lokomotiv Astana]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Ликвидация по-алматински|url=http://sport.caravan.kz/news/likvidaciya-poalmatinski-newsID35365.html|website=sport.caravan.kz/|publisher=sport.caravan.kz|accessdate=18 December 2015|language=Russian|date=19 December 2008}}</ref>
