Russian Cup: Novosibirsk to F4. On Sunday decisive Kazan – Kemerovo and Moscow – Ufa. Other 7 aces (and 11 points) for Pankov!

Other six matches of Semifinal Pools of Russian Cup were played today.
Pool B is closed with Lokomotiv Novosibirsk’s victory, who ended the competition unbeaten by beating 3-2 Krasnoyarsk with second lines (one set was enough, despite 3-0’s win of Belgorod over Fakel).
In Pool A second win for Dinamo Moscow (11 points with 7 aces for setter Pankov, author of 24 points and 15 aces in 2 just two matches!) and Ural Ufa, and they’ll face each other in last match.
Same story in Pool C, where Kazan (today on the field with second lines) and Kemerovo will fight for first place (and qualification).
