Olympic medalist, water polo player of the KINEF-Surgutneftegaz club Ekaterina Prokofieva admitted that it was not easy to accept the lack of medals at the Russian Championship, but she managed to pull herself together and win the National Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk.
KINEF-Surgutneftegaz was left without a medal at the end of the national championship and won the Russian Cup on Saturday, which was held in Khanty-Mansiysk.
– It’s a good end to the season. Ending the season on such a note is very good. Yes, not everything in the championship went as we would like, not as we planned, but the work done still paid off. We are maximalists, we always want to achieve the best result, but after the defeat in the championship we proved that we can pull ourselves together, get back up and continue fighting. I thank the whole team for showing their character. We are bringing back the Cup,” Prokofieva told .
