Head coach of the Uralochka water polo team Mikhail Nakoryakov believes that the decisive matches of the Russian Championship should take place in a festive atmosphere, which he hopes to see at the Russian Cup in Khanty -Mansiysk.
“Uralochka” defended the title of champion of Russia, defeating Nizhny Novgorod “Burevestnik” after three matches. The Russian Cup final will take place in Khanty-Mansiysk from May 29 to June 2.
— Was the match in Nizhny difficult?
— I would like the final matches to take place where they can party. I would like the federation and the ministry to understand this too. Unfortunately, there was no holiday in Nizhny. We (in Zlatoust) had both a cultural program and a festive atmosphere. This is the only way to attract people to sports, so that they can play sports and not smoke in the corridors.
— Are you satisfied with the season?
– Since we won, even though we were second all season, we can be happy now. We will celebrate the championship a little and go to the Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk. When there was the Junior World Championship there and we won it for the first time, in fact, there was a real party there, there was a big screen and benches where the people were watching the matches, fans were waving flags. Governor Filipenko then addressed this issue in depth. I also wanted there to be a big party at the Russian Cup.
