 The new Moscow region team “Rossianka” is making progressive steps from game to game. They changed the head coach and their good select ional policy showed the results. If they didn’t lose so many matches at the beginning of the competition they can hope for the top places. But who knows how the teams will play the final games of the championship?
 The both teams started with attacks on high speeds. And the hosts were more lucky. At the end of the 1st half Tatiana Verezubova found Olga Letyushova and the last one scored the goal with her head. It is difficult to accuse someone from FC Energy defense – actually the goal was well done by Rossianka’s forward.  
 If the first half was equal the second one was opened and finished with advantage of Rossianka team. Voronezh players played mostly in defense. Twice the ball was beaten the bar and twice was very close from the target.  The skills of new goalkeeper of FC Energy gowns after every game. And also in this difficult game Nadejda showed some miracle things.
The unpleasant episode of this game was one-side referee’s job made by Natalia Avdonchenko from Moscow. The advantage of Rossianka was well seen but referee tried to stop all the attacks of Voronezh football club. As an example on the 80th minute ex-Energy player Natalia Degay played against Ekaterina Stepanenko in a such rude way that Voronezh player was urgently sent to the hospital. Ekaterina got a really bad injury of her leg now . Now she needs more then a month to be healthy. And the referee of the game didn’t make at least the caution to the player of Rossianka team. We have to mark the debut of Elena Gorbacheva (1987), a forward who played at the second half. The spectators can see her great speed and brave behavior, now she needs a little bit more experience and sooner or later she will be a real good striker as a starter. Nadejda Bosikova the star of Russian football played 38 minutes. Unfortunatelly she is far from her last conditions but we hope that soon she will show that great football she did 1.5 years ago.
The head coach of FC Energy was really upset with his team game because the second match they played mostly in defense. Unfortunately Natalia Zinchenko after the game in Toliatty felt sick and it was one of the reason of the result in Reutov.
