Detective without a killer

The match with Novaya is interesting because, that Volzhan is our potential opponent in the playoffs. This is why the match is not interesting: rivals, understanding this perspective, they are unlikely to lay all their cards on the table on the first day of spring. Actually, taking into account accumulated injuries and other nuances, Gazprom-Yugra has nothing special to post. And "Nova", making a heroic comeback in Ufa, will probably organize another roster rotation, which is impossible to predict.

By this, properly, the current “Nova” is strong - it is not known in advance, who from 14 the clip man will shoot (and where). Zubov or Shkulyavichus? Jovovich or Terentyev? Savin or Danilov? Pado or Tenants? And further down the list, in any order. “Nova” is getting the most out of its assembled roster this season, if not the maximum., then something close to this, having already achieved historical 15 victories in the regular season.

Do Ugra residents have a chance of winning?, given the problems with the squad and remembering the home defeat in the first round? Sure, there is. For this, of course, certain stars in the sky must coincide, like Slavi's flying serve, Nikiforov's inspiration, another flash of Rodichev’s youth, who caught courage in defending Moiseev, etc.. However, above all this is the notorious common, that is, a team game. This is when everyone in their place knows their maneuver in any, even an unforeseen situation, and does it efficiently.

Даже если рассматривать предстоящий матч в качестве разведки боем перед играми на вылет, то оттачивание командной игры – то, what the doctor ordered. Result, as you understand, here, rather, не в цифрах на табло, а в чистоте исполнения. Putting psychological pressure in advance is unlikely to work in both directions: beaten opponents, experienced. If someone wins by one wicket, then there will be reason to be wary, rather, for the winners, than for the losers.

This is the preamble at the end of the season. Anyway, It will be interesting to watch the game, like an exciting detective story at the beginning. Who the real killer is - we will find out later.
