six out of six: season ended on a positive note

Six matches - six wins: this is the result of the play-out for Gazprom-Ugra. In the last match of the season, the Surgut team played with the demotivated Neftyanik, "providing" himself the last place. And although the game was devoid of tournament sense, our guys showed much more professionalism.

In the debut of the account 2:3 Rajab Shahbanmirzaev came out to serve and brought the score to 8:3. Cannot be said, that the diagonal offered the opponent something unthinkable, although ace issued: it’s just that Dmitry Yakovlev couldn’t withdraw from the fourth zone, however, like Komarov and Byarda from other zones. The second spurt again fell on Rajab's serves - Nikita Alekseev just started a double substitution, coming to the front line instead of Evgeny Rukavishnikov: scored from Yakutin's pass and participated in the block to Botin, who came out instead of Yakovlev, 16:10. Bringing the set to victory was a matter of technique, 25:18. We only note, that in the end, instead of Kirill Kostylenko, Dmitry Krasikov came out and remained on the court until the end of the match.

The second set also starts with an impressive series of breaks, this time on the serves of Artem Dovgan - 9:2: Anton Botin could not cope with Ushkov's passes, and then Akhaminov, and Byarda was covered by Yakutin. Krasikov draws up an ace (13:4), Vladimir Vikulov takes a timeout and delivers an epic: "Come out, like some seals, we are beaten - we grunt with pleasure ". Sergei Panov argued with the coach - two aces (16:11) and productive activity in the attack. But the partners did not support: Ivan Komarov took the ball into touch along the line, and then couldn't twist it into an oblique diagonal, 20:12. As a result, Panov also gave up - hit out of bounds on an uncomfortable ball, and Botin brought an end to the torment with an out-of-bounds, 25:16.

There was a faint hope, that "Neftyanik" will come out of vacation when 0:2, Gazprom-Ugra closes the regular season in St. Petersburg - sounds nice: again Shahbanmirzaeva's series of debuts with Aes, again 8:3. Akhaminov does not throw the ball to Botin and gives way to Ushkov, and on the scoreboard 10:4. 12:4 - Komarov hits out, Botin covered by the block. In the future, Surgut residents could not help but relax: Rajab and Krasikov unsuccessfully tried to beat the block elegantly, which only provoked Panov, something began to work out for Neftyanik and in defense, 17:10. Diagonal Surgut understood everything and began to send balls into deep outs from the block in his own style, 19:11. Panov does not let up - ace and pipe attack, 20:15. But he is not made of iron., the hit of the player in touch brings Gazprom-Ugra a match-ball, 24:18. curious, that in this position Vladimir Vikulov takes a timeout, and performed by the Neftyanik players, the mantra “we can, we can… ». Botin was able to withdraw from the second zone, but he himself sent the teams on vacation by filing out of bounds, 25:19.

The season is over for Surgutians on a quite optimistic note. The results of the championship will be summed up a little later., on a cold head, And now I just want to thank the players, trainers, all staff for patience, mood, professionalism, sports anger and stubbornness. For that, that did not give up in difficult situations and ended the season with their heads held high. G, of course, thanks fans, who always stay with their team!
