Last weekend at the home site in the IC "Burevestnik" volleyball club "Academy-Kazan" took in the next round of the championship of Russia (major League "A") St. Petersburg "Motorist". The team located on the penultimate line of the tournament table became the rival of" academicians". But the outsider gave a real fight to one of the leaders of the tournament-the owners of the site. Defeat 0: 3 and victory in the tie-break 3: 2 - these are the results of the two-round confrontation.  
At the very beginning of the meeting, volleyball players from the Northern capital announced their claims to win this day. The game was dictated by "Motorist". "Academicians", trying to seize the initiative, inexcusably made a lot of mistakes and increasingly lagged behind in the score. As a result, 17:25 in favor of the guests. The second set added a bit of peppercorn to the game, the Kazan players cheered up, at some point they seemed to get their game back. But was followed by another portion of errors and the set was lost 22:25. The third party became repetition of the first: stiffness from-for fear to make a mistake, led only to new, even more ridiculous, misses. As a result, the score is identical to the result of the first game – 17:25.
The plot of the second match was much more twisted. "Academicians" demonstrated the ability to hold a blow, psychologically recovering from defeat. However, no-no, and let the "foam", unwittingly keeping the intrigue in the match. The first three games ended with a difference of two goals - 25:27, 25:23, 27:29. Luck passed from one side to the other. Only by the beginning of the fourth game in the game "academics" there was confidence, and they were able to Doge daring outsiders: 25:20 and 15:11.
Evgeny Lebedev, the head coach of VC "Motorist»:
- The matches were completely different in the game. On the first day we had a noticeable advantage on the pitch, with the reception Kazan failed, it allowed us to win 3:0. There were few mistakes, everything turned out well. On the second day, there was no such advantage, and the game leveled off. Kazan played much stronger at the reception, in fact, it decided the outcome of the meeting. It was difficult to change lanes, the day before the pitch flew strongly, and on the second day it did not fly stronger. Nothing to rebuild was impossible, an equal game turned out.
Konstantin Sidenko, the head coach of VC "Academy-Kazan»:
- Completely opposite of the two games. Yesterday some enslavement was, I think that it is still echoes of the previous round. Today I trained a little, talked more - children left with other mood, with other emotions, with desires. The key phrase was"We should be a team in any situation." When we win – it's easy to be a team, and when we lose-this is the most important thing. Today still put another binder-Vasily (Watermelons, approx. ed.), to Matthew (Elizarov, approx. ed.) slightly refreshed their emotions, looked at the game from the side. In my opinion, somewhere they make the same mistakes, and I wanted Matvey to see them from the side. Vasily respect, well played. Today, it was a pleasure to look at the game of ligament, so Matvey has something to think about, now just like that in the composition will not stand. There were some ridiculous mistakes at children, but I consider that it is youth, lack of experience. Only enough games will take away those stupid mistakes that knock the team out.
