Highlights
Previously, Dinamo-AkBars KAZAN and Maritza PLOVDIV met in the Champions League in the 2017/2018 season. Then the Russians won twice scoring 3:0 and 3:1.
Since those matches of 2017, Dinamo-Ak Bars KAZAN retained the captain Irina Koroleva. Maritza’s line-up included then and still includes the captain Ivelina Monova, Simona Dimitrova and Aleksandra Milanova.
Maritza’s captain is a libero, which is allowed by the FIVB rules since this season only. At that, Ivelina Monova is the most experienced player of the team who played for it for seven years straight from 2011 to 2018. In Dinamo-Ak Bars KAZAN, the most experienced is Irina Koroleva, having played for five seasons, starting from 2016.
Head coach of Dinamo-Ak Bars KAZAN Rishat Gilyazutdinov has been leading the team for 13 years straight. Maritza’s previous head coach Ivan Petkov also had worked in the club for over ten years. However, in the last season he left and now the Bulgarian team is headed by Borislav Krachanov.
Maritza PLOVDIV announced one of the youngest volleyball players of the Champions League: the opposite Iva Dudova is just 15. Dinamo-Ak Bars’s youngest player is 17 year-old Varvara Sergeeva.
Sergey Sikachev“I remember playing with Maritza in the 2017/2018 season, but it is a different team now. Their line-up is almost completely new. Ivan Petkov, who had been Maritza’s head coach for a long time, moved to the Ukrainian Prometey, together with all the leaders. However, I think it will not be easy to play with Maritza anyway, because it is a European type team which prefers the combination volleyball."

Match Report
Dinamo-Ak Bars KAZAN prove better than VC Maritza PLOVDIV
Article
Samantha Fabris“Sure, the three points are very important for us. Today, we delivered a great job, especially in the first set. After that, maybe we relaxed a bit too much, but we achieved our goal to take the straight-setst win. In the first set, they made a lot of errors. In the second one, they improved their defence more. And in that situation, we were not so patient. But after that, we managed to take the lead again.”
Player of Dinamo-Ak Bars KAZAN
Sergey Sikachev“In the first set, the guests were probably, too nervous. Also, we delivered aggressive play on the serving line. We managed to concentrate and played well. The players have followed the coach’s guidelines. Now, we will get prepared for the Russian Cup Final Four, all our thoughts are occupied with it already.”
Assistant coach of Dinamo-Ak Bars KAZAN
Ivelina Monova“It was a tough game. Congratulations to Kazan! Perhaps, we could have done more in this game… We tried to do our best, but this wasn’t our best game. In the second set, we came back a little bit better peforming on the court, but it wasn’t enough.”
