Another question

The match with Kuzbass for Gazprom-Yugra is another mystery in pursuit of the answer to the sacramental question “Who are we?”?». Surgut residents are not in pursuit of a new identity, not! The team has her, no matter, who plays for her, one with “high morale”, as Artem Masko said in a recent interview. And according to the game parameters, a new face is emerging: with ultra-spicy Slavi Kostadinov, athletic Alexander Kostadinov and Denis Litvinov on the edges, mobile responsive centers, youth and experience... I already have my own drawing, own breed.

Near Kazan, Of Novosibirsk, St. Petersburg - new setters and everything, teams in "perestroika"! We need to make connections, practice interaction, although the composition is on 80 same percentage. We, in fact, new team, but not before the restructuring, we have to survive. Therefore, to become a single mechanism under stressful conditions, in conditions of total shortage of approximately everything, besides that very moral spirit.

And with all this beauty we continue to look for a place in the Super League sun. Our destiny is to bite leaders, fight with the middle peasants and snatch something from the bottom of the standings? Or we can move the bar a little higher? Or we can fall lower? No ready answer, We respond with every match, each batch, every draw.

The answer from Kemerovo is very important, and when he was not important? Nuance is, that now Kuzbass has tried on our hat, he doesn't care about fat. The team has noticeably sagged, releasing Pakshin, Markin, Asparukhova, Bragin, the same Tkachev, which we now have. But in the center the losses are not so significant, for the Cuban Fiel remained, there is local talent Yulmukhametov. Sidenko and Suprunov remained in the diagonal, which is also quite a strength. Setter Kovalikov remains. Основные проблемы ожидались в доигровке, так оно и вышло. Но постепенно набирает обороты присланный в обмен на Пакшина из Санкт-Петербурга Тихонов, выдают неплохие отрезки и матчи Коченов и Морозов. Если брать сургутский след, то Супрунов и либеро Клюпа – наша молодежная школа, а центральный Ионов играл у нас пару сезонов назад.

В минувшем туре «Кузбасс» всухую уступил в Уфе, где мы всухую выиграли. But, as you understand, это ни о чем не говорит. Or rather, может сказать о многом, в том числе о том, что дома кемеровчане будут заряжены на реабилитацию. Для нас же важен факт, что с «Кузбассом» можно играть. Но еще важнее – концентрация, mood, план на игру и его реализация. Well, of course, все травмированные очень нужны на площадке.
