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.
We did not have time to lose the playoff series in the championship to Yenisei, just like that, a similar series with them in the National Cup. The “blame” for this is the passing of “Yaroslavich” and disturbances with the competition regulations: instead of the expected group stage, there will be two more playoff rounds before the Final Six. Question of the day: will we be able to compete with Yenisei for victory this time?? Read more »
In each of the four games, the hosts reached 25 points, only in one of them the guests scored two points more. Otherwise there were no special problems, except for the crowded infirmary on both sides. We have Shevlyakov, who continues to recover,, Nikiforov, Kuklinsky, After leaving for Yaroslavl, Bobrov was joined by team captain Alexey Rodichev, and the Volga residents came to Surgut, ten of them, leaving out of the game after the first meeting between Chas and Chivel. During the game, Yaroslavich also lost Grigory Dragunov, knocked out a finger - but the match in Surgut closed the season for the team: you can recover calmly.
The opponents entered the match with losses in their lineups: The hosts are unavailable due to injuries, both foreign players, we are still without Nikiforov and Shevlyakov. The pair from Tyumen, Yurinsky and Panov, played almost the entire match and did not spoil the game at all. Passoval, yet again, almost the entire game Kirillov, Slavi periodically came out to serve with varying degrees of success.
remind, that this season two Russian Cups are being played at once - 2025 and 2026 years, what is connected with the shift of the tournament from autumn-winter to spring. And the competition formula is very complicated. I will try to explain the possible route of Gazprom-Yugra on my fingers. so, 1 and 5 In April we play play-offs with Yaroslavich, which took fifteenth place in the championship.. When Read more »
Results of the season in the championship: 12 victories in 30 regular season matches, 10-is a place, defeat in the qualifying round of the playoffs. This is the best result in recent years 6 years old: we finished 11th in 2021 and 2025, and three years in a row, from 2022 by 2024, were 12th. And never during this time did they qualify higher in the playoffs. Seems like success Read more »
