It was a big fight. We won but I admit that Krasnodar played smarter. They saved energy and played just 3 sets. They have deeper roster and changed the pace. We need to play smarter in Krasnodar. One word about Kosheleva. She did not play bu she was around statisticians. She just provoked the crowd. I admire her volleyball. She is a real star player but she is nowhere near sportmanship. Elite player acts as a elite man or woman. She acted like a big baby. Shame on her…
