Tulitsa wrecked last-placed Zarechie-Odintsovo in Round 23 of the 2021/22 Women’s Superliga Paribet with a score of 3-0 (25-16, 25-21, 25-14). Thus, the Tula-based side took over a surprising lead of the competition standings, squeezing Dinamo-Ak Bars to the 2nd-place, However, in case the Kazan team achieves a win tomorrow, it will return to the top spot it just lost. Ekaterina Timoshkova top-scored Tulitsa today with 11 points.

Lokomotiv’s hopes of obtaining the top-seed at the end of the regular season just got smaller due to a shocking defeat (2-3) to Enisey on the road. Losing to the Krasnoyarsk side reflected in losing the vice-leadership. The titleholders might possibly even in losing the current No.3 (in case of Dinamo Moscow’s triumph tomorrow).
