Russia men’s team head coach Vladimir Alekno said that the Russian volleyball stopped developing for some reason after the London Olympics… Recall that Zbornaya won the gold medal in 2012, while this summer they finished at the 4th place at the Rio 2016 volleyball tournament.
How did that downfall happen?
The Russian media asked Ivan Zaytsev about his opinion, while the former player of Dinamo Moscow gave a very interesting statement.
“I was thinking about what Alekno said. About that idea that the Russian volleyball is not developing. There are certainly many factors, but I think that Zenit Kazan is one of them. The things are looking good for this club, because they have money and a fantastic coach (Alekno). They are indeed very strong, but they are killing the Russian Championship. The other big clubs such are Dinamo Moscow, Belogorie Belgorod, Gazprom-Yugra just can’t come near Zenit Kazan,” said Zaytsev for R-Sport.
