The 9th of June. Voronezh. Stadium “Fakel”.Attendance -  500  + 20 C degrees.

  This match was held on the stadium of “Fakel” because there was the game of the main male team of the Voronezh region at the central stadium at the same time.  The pitch of the stadium has to be better so this factor corrected the game itself. After the last season the guests became stronger because they invited some new players from the team of “Ryazan-TNK”. So noone thought that it would be an easy game.
  From the first minutes the game started with the attacks from the both sides. On the 1st minute Elena Danilova lost the chance to score. We have to mark that the head coach of the FC Energy changed the positions of the team. So Olga Mishanskaya played in write defense and did it really well, Stepanenko and Lamtyugina played on write and left midfielders, Elena Terekhova and Elena Danilova were forwards, new American girl Danica Carey was as a central defender. There was no Olga Svinukhova because of injury so this game became the debut of goalkeeper Nadejda Tshegoleva who really played well and confident. Although she had a lot of work. So at one of the moments only the gates bar helped the Energy team. Natalia Zinchenko a nd Daria Apanashenko looked like very tiered after their international duties. As a result after some unlucky chances to score “Energy” couldn’t entertain the fans. 
 At the second half Nadejda Bosikova appeared besides Terekhova. And the game became more interesting. And Natalia Zinchenko began to run faster and more. Finally Natalia let guests’ goalkeeper to capitulate after the pass from Jenny Benson. Then Nadejda Bosikova lost two great chances to score. It means that she is not ready yet to continue the career as the best forward in Russian dchampionship – hopefully it will happen soon. The guests didn’t stop and continued to attack very actively. Once Nadejda Tshegoleva made a great save and twice the bar saved the Energy team. At the end of the game after the corner kick from Ekaterina Stepanenko there was the final score – 2-0 – the ball was in gates from the back of the captain of “Chertanovo” team.

Ivan Saenko, the head coach of FC Energy:
 
- I am not at all satisfied with the todays game. At the first half there were a lot of mistakes, some players ran away of struggle. I have many pretensions to native Voronezh players.  If they will continue to play football in a such way probably it is better to change their profession as soon as possible…
