No game, but with character

In the first set of the match with Zenit St. Petersburg, Gazprom-Yugra hit like Ostap Bender, just not under a horse, and under the block of owners. 8 effective actions of Zenit in this element became as a result of skill, and creative search of Surgutyans. The desire to play fast is closely associated with risk., which time after time did not live up to expectations. As a result 15:25.

In the second batch, Rukavishnikov continued to heat up Shakhbanmirzaev, but only Rajab had a black streak - every blow, then the error. Although in the middle of the game Nikishin knocked the opponent out of the hold with an excellent series of innings, the reciprocal block of guests has earned and the account is almost closed, 11:12. But Shakhbanmirzayev once again went out badly under the ball and loaded into touch in the already won, it would seem that, draw, 14:18. On this, properly, the fight is over, 20:25. It is worth noting, that in this set Ursov was replaced by Camejo, out on the site after a long break.

It took the Cuban some time to adapt - his kick in touch on the line marked the first noticeable superiority of the guests in the third set, 4:2. Brizar loaded up his central, but the people of Surgut also resisted - Nikishin is good, Shakhbanmirzayev began to do something, 13:10. The hosts ate one break with Kluki's discount at the end of a protracted rally, then a poor reception led to Yakovlev's attack, 17:17. from the account 20:20 ours left in two single blocks - Yakutin closed Pashitsky, and Nikishin - Podrebinkina, 22:20. There was a pre-match chance at the mark 23:21, but Nikishin did not cope with the pipe attack, 23:22. Yakutin scored and served in the net, and in the decisive rally, the reliable Kostylenko hits through touching the block, 25:23.

In the fourth game, Zenit decorates the first break with Ace Podrebinkina, which was stopped twice by the block before, 4:6. Nikishin is good again on the grid and Kostylenko is reliable, but an equal game ends on Brizar's innings. Failed reception over and over again turns into problems, and even Rukavishnikov swam a little in the program, as a result - 7:13 after Shakhbanmirzaev's attack on a single block out-of-bounds. Actually, on this it was possible to put an end: substitute Kovalev got the match-ball with ace, 14:24. But the "dying" outbreak of "Gazprom-Ugra" shifted the score into the category of a decent: Shakhbanmirzaev starred and gave an excellent streak of innings. At a downed hold and with Podrebinkin in the fourth zone, Zenit could not get off the edges, and the residents of Surgut over and over again decided to finish the game in their favor, 19:24. Shakhbanmirzaev filed for all the money and did the right thing - but his next shot did not fit into the site, 19:25.

The game left conflicting impressions. One side, it clearly did not work out for our guys - whole pieces and sets were failed, something absolutely did not work out. With another, the corporate character made it possible to pull out one set and sometimes show good volleyball in the second and fourth games. It's not shameful to lose to Zenit St. Petersburg, much more important to understand, what are you capable of in a match with the grand. Despite the rather mediocre quality of volleyball, Gazprom-Yugra managed to bring certain problems to the opponent..

This is the end of the regular season for us.. Play-out games that have no tournament sense are ahead, in which, Nevertheless, the birth of a new team will continue. We need to think about the next season..
