#volleyball #volley
At the 6:8 mark in the first set, Nikita Aksyutin, the captain of the guests, twisted his ankle while blocking and left the court. Anatoly Volodin took his place, and the squad did not notice the loss of a fighter – the guests played recklessly and they did a lot, starting with the submission. The hosts also responded with good shots from behind the front line, but in other elements everything was not so rosy. Kurbatov ace leaves Surgutyan in action, 9:11, followed by a series of knockout innings by Rodichev, 14:15. But Radchenko and Militsky do not seem to notice the block, and fortune favors Bagray – after his submission, the ball catches the cable and falls into an uninsured zone, 14:18. Rudnev comes on as a substitute with a special mission and puts an ace in the first zone, 16:18. A worthy response from Militsky is a deceptive strike and ace, 16:20.
At first, Militsky and Volodin did not figure out who to take, and then who to attack, as a result, the Surgutans crept back to the working distance at the end, 19:21. But Radchenko is removed, and Rodichev gets stuck in the block, 19:23. Shahbanmirzaev, in turn, turns on the serve, but too late, 22:24. After the timeout of the "Samotlor" diagonal Surgutyan stops the block.
In the debut of the second game, the hosts behave like masters on Rajab's serves: Shevlyakov implements a freeball, Rajab makes an ace, and Rodichev recoups from the block on the second attempt, 5:1. After a series of mutual mistakes, Gazprom-Ugra gives another break point to the net on an emergency ball Volodin, 10:5. The Chinese copes with another cannon feed from Radchenko, Rajab thanks libero with an attack, 11:6.
Nevertheless, the guests impose a tight chase: Militsky comes out of the protracted draw with honor, Shevlyakov rests against Kulagin's block, then the same fate overtakes Shakhbanmirzaev (12:10) and Maxim Kirillov appears on the site instead of Ozhiganov. Militsky carries the main load in the attack at Ugra-Samotlor – and quite successfully, but his colleague Volodin hits out, 16:12. Instead of Bagray, Denis Tolok comes out, Radchenko, who went into the shadows in the attack, gets his ace, 17:16. The hosts carefully carry the minimum advantage until the very end and almost lose it in a protracted draw, which Rajab decides on the second attempt, 22:20. And then it broke through: Kurbatov closes Kulygin, Kirillov puts an ace in the joint between the receivers, 24:20. Militsky is shot through the pipe, but Rajab is convincing in the fourth zone, rolling the ball over the block, 25:21.
Most of the third set was held with the advantage of the guests, and it all started at the 9 mark:9. Kirillov lost the quality of the pass and gave way to Ozhiganov, 10:12. Immediately after the defense, Bagray throws the ball into the empty fifth zone, 10:13. The attack of the guests gradually begins to dominate: Volodin adapted, Zemlyanko scored instead of Kulygin, and then the machine mode turns on Militsky, scoring from both edges of the net, 19:22. The exchange of errors on serve in favor of "Samotlor", 20:23, Surgut residents have fewer and fewer chances to change the course of the game.
Kostrov, who came out for this mission, does not serve, but Rajab implements a quick finish after the Chinese pulled out Volodin's attack, 22:23. Rodichev scores a passing ball after Krasikov's knocking out serve, 23:23. Another powerful serve flies and the hook, pulling the outgoing ball out from behind the antenna, does not do it quite cleanly. The judges are silent, the hosts are outraged, but the Vart team has a set ball. Perhaps this episode struck a chord with the Gazprom-Ugra players, especially Rodichev and Nagaits. Libero in the buckle leaves the ball in play after Radchenko's killer serve, Rodichev is accurate in emergency mode. And another successful attack by Alexey on the triple block after he managed to fend off Radchenko's attacks twice. The third hero of the ending is Dmitry Kurbatov, who gave the final ace, 26:24.
The final of the third game psychologically broke the guests. Mistakes were made, Militsky was tired, and only Radchenko tried to keep the team afloat. Although he also hit out between two attacks into Militsky's block, 10:7. Valery Pyaskovsky tried to shake up the team by replacing Bagray with Tolok, but Denis made two mistakes in the transmission technique – this is not often seen in the Super League, 13:8.
Kostrov comes out instead of Militsky, but the game rolls to a logical ending by inertia, even the Surgutyan marriage does not "work": Rodichev accepts with one hand from above (!), Radchenko does not use the gift and hits out. Maybe Volodin? Out, 17:10. Rajab takes a serve flying off the court – Kurbatov understands on the net, 19:12. The guests are trying to fix something, risking and making mistakes on the serve, 24:17. Apotheosis on the match ball: Kirillov passes to the opponent's side, and there they do not know what to do with the ball, 25:17.
