    actually im surprised that Belgorod lost... but ok, maybe the team has to find to each other first :D

    I am surprised that Plotnikova is still playing for Uralochka. :)


    Anyway, Odintsovo have Merkulova, Walewska and Pronicheva. Who are their two starting MBs?


    Another thing, does Chaine Staelens start for Moscow or is she a reserve?


    Thanks Nastja for posting the rosters :D

    After 3 years without volleyball, 30 year old setter Elena Vassilevskaya decided to return to volleyball and signed a contract with Uralochka. The only foreighn player that will play for Uralochka is not very well known but with great potential (according to Ogienko) Veronica Gomez of Venezuela.
    2 Nastja - you can add Marcelle Rodrigues to Zarechie roster, Brazilian setter will play for Zarechie only in Champion's league as a substitue for Zhukova, who remains the main setter.


    The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself. (Oscar Wilde).

    Edited once, last by Nick ().

    She is called Klimakova. I think she is part of the team but no main player. Anastasia Kodirova (Belikova) and Elena Vasilevskaia also are substitutes.
    Does anyone know if Tatiana Kosheleva is injured? Her name has not been in Zarechie's list last weekend nor in yesterday's ECL match.

    I was hoping Karpol could use her as a main player and develop her, but it did not happen.


    Yes, Kosheleva has a back injury and is replaced by a new player, who is not playing well just like Fateeva.

    Is Nataliya Goncharova Russian? If she is then I hope she would be invited to play for Russia because she is very young (only 19 years old) and yet she can already give points for her team as if she is already a veteran player.

    Belgorod continues to surprise!


    University-Belogorie - Uralochka NTMK 3:2 (17:25, 27:29, 25:16, 25:18, 16:14)


    :woohoo:

    University-Belogorie - Spartak Omsk 3:0 (25:22, 25:19, 25:17)


    It was the last opponent, which could be considered as strong in Russian Superleague.
    Belgorod reached the second place in the championship, having the same number of points as leading Dinamo Moscow.
    Phenomenal and unexpected result of Debby's team!


    :thumbup:

    Having already contract with Dinamo, Safronova signed another one with Zarechie. And now Zarechie wants a compensation for cancellation of this contract. More than 1 million dollars.
