The next opponent in the volleyball Major League a took last weekend at the home site in the IC "Burevestnik" University team "Academy-Kazan". The team "Grozny" from the city of the same name came to visit the "academicians".
Guests, located before the tour at two lines above Kazantsev, started the match confidently enough. A successful game in the defense of rivals determined the equal nature of the game.  However, the home team in the end of each of the three games acted more confidently and finished the match with a confident victory 3:0 (25:18, 25:23, 25:21).
The second meeting was more intense. The coaching staff of the guests made certain adjustments in the game, and "Grozny" managed to achieve a preponderance in the first game. At some point, the guests were confident in the score, but failed to realize their game advantage in the winning result. Already at the end of the set, Kazan managed to turn the game around and win - 25:23. The second batch were also visco – team tried to find weakness in their opponents, but they did this not too successfully. And again the "academics" won at the expense of reliability - 25:21.
The third set was held in the same direction – a viscous and intense game. Everything went to the fact that the match will end with the same score as the day before. And, apparently, the owners of the site believing in their success, relaxed and made a number of mistakes, which the guests took advantage of. As a result 23:25 in favor of "terrible". The fourth set turned out to be combat. Inspired by the chance to even the score, the guests began to take risks. Passion on the court escalated. Several controversial points, as they say," added fuel to the fire " - players reacted violently to their successful actions in attack or defense. The "academicians" nerves were stronger: 25: 20 in the set and 3: 1 – in the match.
Maxim Maksimov, head coach, Academy-Kazan»:
- We were preparing for the games with Grozny very seriously. Feared them - you could say that. Expected from them more serious fight, than from "Spark" in the last round. Because the team and experienced, and above us in the standings was. We did it and sold all their Dogramaci balls.  Very timely in both matches went out and helped feed and confident taking Ignat Danilov. I note the interaction of our passers and extreme players. Very well played our doigrovschiki-provided, that they weathered reception, they gave attack, can be said, an exorbitant on interest. This is what we lacked in the matches against Iskra. In the second game very well saved by Alexander Dyachkov, who had replaced Alex Kobelev.  Overall satisfied with the result and even more satisfied with the quality of the game. In matches with "Spark" I only joined the team, did not know all the possibilities of the players. Now better understood and the quality of the game I like more and more.
