Strong-willed victory in the UFA!

In the announcement, I spoke to the match, that this game will show the level of our claims, willingness to fight. Well then, seem to be, the character of the team has. A little lacking resource in the fourth zone, and something on trifles, but in general, our boy grew.

While impressions are fresh, note, that this victory is a symbiosis of character and control, discipline. It is the case, when a victory can be called a coaching one - almost all preparations and situational interventions by Rafael Khabibullin worked. And his son is on the playground, although he allowed a certain percentage of marriage, was a real leader, themes, who keeps the team in good shape. On the teeth, through fatigue, played at his level Maciei Muzai, perfectly fit into the game Teodor Salparov. Well done all. Well done, that did not break in the third set. Well done, what showed, how victories are obtained over a very serious opponent.

The first set was held in an absolutely equal fight. The teams took turns going forward, and rarely the advantage of any of the opponents exceeded the distance of two points. In the middle of the game, Ural turned over 13:15 in 17:15 on Feoktistov's innings. Jovovich's quick passes continued to break the Surgutyan block, and we tried the Museum. Closer to the end, Gazprom-Yugra closed Rybakov's block and caught up with the owners, 20:20. The game is on the balance sheet, key protracted rally at the mark 22:23 decided on the third try Muzai (and before that there was a wonderful insurance Salparov), and he also got a setball break, 24:23. Again a long rally and Dovgan finishes the rebound from the block, 25:23.

The second set was a continuation of the first, with the only difference, that the "Ural" has changed the diagonal - Nikita Alekseev joined the case. The guests were leading in the account with a minimal advantage throughout the whole game., but the owners did not let go. A very long and remarkably beautiful draw happened while counting 17:17, as a result of which Kirill Kostylenko hit out-of-bounds, but the video playback of the episode recorded a touch of the block. And then Muzai issued the first full-fledged ace for Gazprom-Yugra, 19:17. However, rebound from the block after Muzai's attack hooked the site (video recording came into play again), and Kostylenko was unable to get away from Jovovich's hands in a quick pass, 19:19. Another equal ending.

Spiridonov took a step in the right direction, having earned a set-ball, 22:24, Jovovich is wrong,23:24, and then the substitute Gotsev attacks ... somewhere in the area of ​​the front line. First, the judge fixes the field, but then takes his own view - for peace of mind. And rightly takes - there was a strike! 24:24. We have a chance, but Rukavishnikov's hand trembled, and Muzai on a forcedly narrow ball (Khabibullin passed a low ball from his knees) knocking on the block, 24:26.

Everything went to that, that in the third game the audience will again see a stubborn struggle, but they saw ... how the game of the Surgutyans disintegrated. Probably, affected by the emotional devastation from the ending of the previous game, but, anyway, unforced errors poured from a cornucopia. Reception, broadcast, attack - all out of place. Taken when counting 2:6 fracture timeout is not entered, 2:8 after ace Biryukov. Rafael Habibullin, having estimated the reserve of strength and the chances of pulling out the set, makes a strategically correct decision - changes the diagonal and overplayers. Pirainen appears on the set, Avdochenko, Emma Bunton, and at some point (at level -10) Gazprom-Yugra stabilizes the game, preventing the opponent from gaining breaks further. And then, on the serves, Khabibullina begins to close the distance - with 12:21 to 16:21, forcing Konstantin Sidenko to even take time out. Sure, Ural players relaxed a little, but for the people of Surgut at this difficult moment it was important to get angry and transfer this anger to the fourth set. As a result, everyone got their own - "Ural" victory, 18:25, and we are the desire to fight, prove, that it was an accidental breakdown.

Ruslan Galimov remained on the site in the fourth batch of Gazprom-Yugra, Muzai and Kostylenko returned. And again - an equal game. The teams are fighting, not sparing yourself - it is important to seize strategic superiority. Khabibullin lost sight - several gears fly behind Musay's head, the opponent uses it, using Alekseev with varying degrees of success. Exactly, after softening the attack of the diagonal Surgutyan, Alekseev gets the first serious break for Ural - 10:12. Galimov hits the antenna, 12:15... At some point it seemed, that Ural will squeeze the opponent, but, It turned out, and Ufa residents are not iron. Alekseev puts a steep diagonal in touch, 17:18. Biryukov, perfectly played the whole match, hits the same, 18:18.

The teams come to the end with a minimal advantage of "Ural", 19:20 after the attack of the same Biryukov. Uralians twist a double substitution, Muzai throws an emergency ball out-of-bounds, 19:21, and when the judges record a similar situation when scoring 20:22, it seems, that the train is leaving ... But video playback shows, that the ball hit the line, Spiridonov's attack is mitigated by a block, and Muzai this time plays out from the hands, 22:22.

Dovgan's gliders do not cause problems for host hosts, but in the attack, there are two unforced errors in a row - Alekseev and Spiridonov alternately beat past the site, 24:22. Sidenko takes two time-outs in a row, to bring their players to their senses - Spiridonov is removed, but the answer is followed by an accurate attack by Machei Muzai, 25:23. We crawled into the fifth set, what is called, on the teeth.

In the decisive set when counting 5:3 Хабибуллин, reaching the ball in the fall, was injured and remained lying on the court - the judges did not stop the episode, and Alekseev took advantage of Artyom's absence from the net, scored without the block. Artem got up, winced, tried to talk to the judges, and stayed to play. Long draw - Spiridonov scores. A shortened feed from Biryukov immediately flies, ace, 5:6. So, one step back, we are approaching the change of sides - at the "Ural" in its element Alexey Spiridonov. After the change, we immediately get an ace from Abrosimov, 7:9.

With the score 9:10 the substitution of Surgutyan is triggered - Pavel Avdochenko enters the serve and puts the ace exactly in line, Biryukov is powerless, 10:10. Powerful serves take the hosts away from the net, and Alekseev on high balls in the uncomfortable fourth zone first hits the block, and then gives the people of Surgut a chance to finish the game - Muzai is accurate, 12:10. Kostylenko and Chereisky close Spiridonov, 13:10. But no one is waiting for Kuznetsov's attack, center blocker scores on a clean net, 13:11. The tension reaches its climax - and Spiridonov does not fit the pitch into the platform in width, presenting three match-balls to the opponent. The first one selects himself through the pipe, 14:12. Further, it is critically important for the owners to keep the serve., but Pivovarov, who came out instead of Kuznetsov, who was unstable in this element ..., 15:12.

A much needed victory, as from a tournament point of view, and in terms of gaining self-confidence. We are great! And just in time the championship switches to the Russian Cup, where you can more or less calmly try some other combinations. Gazprom-Yugra has little strength left from playing at such a frantic calendar pace ...
