Korabelka staged the night’s biggest rally, erasing a nine-point deficit in the fourth set and saving two match points before forcing a tie-break. But Lokomotiv regrouped, closing out the match 15–12 to secure a hard-earned road win.

In other matches, Dynamo-Metar Chelyabinsk snapped its losing streak with a tense 3–2 victory over Minchanka Minsk, while Dinamo-Ak Bars cruised past Yenisey Krasnoyarsk in straight sets behind 19 points from Braelyn Martinez.

Leningradka stunned Dinamo Moscow 3–2 after dropping the first set, leaning on improved serving and a strong tie-break start. Zarechie-Odintsovo swept Tulitsa in Tula, capitalizing on a wave of home-team errors.

Omichka delivered another comeback in Ekaterinburg, beating Uralochka 3–1 after tightening its defence and controlling the final sets. In Krasnodar, Dinamo recovered from a rough opening set to defeat Proton 3–1.
