With all his might

After the victory over Kuzbass, Gazprom-Yugra is waiting for Zenit Kazan.. clear, that for the victory over the leader of the championship of one positive, the rivals are in different weight categories. But a couple of good rounds at home Surgutians can spend against any opponent.

Represent Zenit Kazan and it is difficult, And easy, If instead of a long list of achievements, just say: multiple winner and winner of all. Legendary era of Leon, Anderson and Mikhailov ended, but Mikhailov is still formidable and in the ranks, and the team still maintains the level. Due to what?

One of the best setters in the world, Micah Christenson - this time. One of the best finishers in the world, Dmitry Volkov, is two. Excellent selection of other performers, starting with the same Mikhailov and Volvich in the center of the net and ending with his own students Ilya Fedorov, Mikhail Labinsky, Roman Romanovsky. Alexey Verbov's coaching philosophy also benefits the club, the team plays smart volleyball, where not a single link falls out of the process even for a split second.

Generally, come - there will be something and someone to see. Including the residents of Surgut, who will never raise a white flag. How did they not do this?, eg, five years ago, beating Zenit to no avail at the Premier Arena in the last round of the championship. Alexey Verbov was a debutant coach at that time and probably learned a useful lesson for himself, cost his team the championship.

We also have our own philosophy, character, motivation and pride. Kazan for us is that, what Surgut could become with a similar attitude towards the team. An example, which we will always strive for. And may we never catch up in terms of conditions and opportunities, but on the site, where everyone is equal in front of the ball, we will fight with all our might. Come and support Gazprom-Yugra in the match with the leader, after all, our strength is also in our home stands.
