With mixed feelings, the players left the team of the Volga region Academy of sports Rostov-on-don, which hosted the next tournament of the Premier League of the National student football League. Beaten in the opening match of the tournament hosts, and the leaders of the championship the national team of southern Federal University (2:1), following the meeting, the academicians unexpectedly lost to one of outsiders – a team of REU (0:2).
Only the victory in the opening match of the "academicians" tour over Rostov students kept the championship intrigue in the Premier League. And wards Ayrat Gainullina did not disappoint. Mikhail Yakovlev opened the scoring in the first half. The hosts after the break scored a return goal, and then made every effort to "Doge" rivals from Kazan, but "academicians" punished the national team of the southern Federal University, organizing a scoring counterattack, which was completed by Danil Kostylev.
Alas, the next day "academicians" became co-authors of sensation with a minus sign. Inspired by the victory won the day before, they from the first minutes of the match with the team of the Russian economic University named after G. V. Plekhanov, located on the penultimate line of the standings, rushed to the attack. The tournament situation did not leave them other options for the game. Muscovites, led by their captain Andrei Talalaev (the son of the famous Russian coach Andrei Talalaev) in the spring, chose the opposite defensive tactics for this match and twice punished their opponents for mistakes in defense.
Annoyed by the defeat of "academicians" in the third game day broke the anger on the "middle" - the national team of TSU, beating Tambov students with a score of 4:1. In our team have different Azat Shamsutdinov, scored twice, Sergei Panyukov and Aidar Karimov.
The team of the Volga region Academy will hold the final three matches of the championship in Krymsk from 6 to 8 June. Team will play against CSU (Ivan), Kuban state University (Krasnodar) and Spbgutd (Saint Petersburg). We can say that all three games for Kazan students acquire the status of finals. Today "academicians" occupy the second place in the standings, behind the SOUTH by 5 points. But the hidden leader of The Premier League of the NSFL is the team of the Kuban state University, which has 21 points and three games in reserve. The team of Ayrat Gainullin keeps only theoretical chances of a victory in tournament, but, taking into account the forthcoming internal meeting with the Krasnodar students, is capable to influence an outcome of fight for a title. However, victory over the University in the June tournament needed "academics" first of all to solve the problem of getting into the top three. The slightest misfire without a doubt will be ready to use prefabricated CSU, SSU (Saratov, Russia), Kazan Federal University (Simferopol), also applying for a place on the podium.
