Traditional conversation after the end of the season with the head coach and the main person at Gazprom-Yugra, Rafael Khabibullin, should have been special: after all 30 years of the club.

30 years of history is difficult, impossible to fit into the framework of even a long, impressive list of numbers, achievements, surnames. 30 years is the way, which is only partly measured by results.

Ten residents of Surgut arrived in Krasnoyarsk, and without the support of the same Tyumen residents they could not pull something out of themselves, what could help win at least the “golden” set. The team can't be blamed: objectively tired, bloodless, she got so far, how could I. And Krasnoyarsk is far away even for Surgut. Start of the game in 16.00 local time - this is an additional “bonus”. It was noticeable, that the players haven’t really “woke up”, failed to rebuild and maximize their empty batteries.

The guests fielded a couple of reserve players for the game, and the hosts were forced to play according to an already tested scheme with two setters on the court. Let's say right away, that the Yugra people’s idea worked better. The start of the game was better for them - 5:1 with a slurred play, Fettsova provokes an early out-out of “Yenisey”. Did not help: defense gives extra play, Panov and Alexander Kostadinov bring the breaks, 8:2.

Question of the day: will we be able to compete with Yenisei for victory this time?? Read more »
