– Today we managed to see all the players, we change position for some, everything is not so simple. In general, I’m happy that we took three points, endured until the end and didn’t send a more experienced team back on the field. 8 matches in 10 days, including the final, it’s a complex system. These are not board games that you can play every day. Rest days generally improve the quality of volleyball. With fatigue, teams cannot show their level, a day between matches would be beneficial, – leads official site Words of the All-Russian Volleyball Federation of the head coach of the Novosibirsk region Plamen Konstantinov.
In the other part of the grid, which is hosted by Kazan, the local team Tatarstan beat the Belgorod region (3:0) sharply, and Moscow was stronger than St. Petersburg (3:1).
After two contested matches, the classification is dominated by Tatarstan and the Novosibirsk region, with 6 points each.
