Against Ukraine’s SC Prometey Dnipro, Russian champions played as hosts in Minsk, Belarus, by the decision of the European Volleyball Confederation (CEV).

The Pole Malwina Smarzek top-scored Lokomotiv with 16 points. Ekaterina Evdokimova set up five blocks.

The volleyball players of the club from the Russian capital defeated the Czech VK Dukla Liberec with a score of 3-0 (25-19, 25-19, 25-20) in the home match of the first round of Pool C. In the same pool, Poland’s Developres Rzeszów started the duel against Germany’s Dresdner SC with the demolition of rivals (25-10) but ended it with a tie-break. After many ups and downs, the weighing tray of the scale prevailed in favor of the team commanded by Stéphane Antiga, which was top-scored by American Kara Bajema (20 points, including five blocks).

French champion ASPTT Mulhouse VB got off to a good start in Pool B with a 3-1 victory over the Finnish side LP Salo (more known as Viesti). German Kimberly Drewniok tallied 18 points on the winning side.
