The SPbPU women’s mini-football team won an honorable third place in the 7×7 student tournament as part of the St. Petersburg Student Games. The tournament was organized by the St. Petersburg Football Federation. Our football players won medals in prestigious city competitions among students for the first time.
Polytechnic demonstrated its power almost from the very start: a crushing 6:1 victory over SPbGLTU, a rout of GIKIT — 8:0, a convincing 5:1 over ITMO and the Mining University. Although there were also defeats — from Voenmekh — 0:4 and Herzen University — 0:2. But the overall balance at the end of the group stage brought the team to an honorable place in the top three.
The forwards’ statistics are particularly impressive: Ekaterina Butasova scored 6 goals, Alina Asanova – 5, and Evgenia Baranova – 4.
We congratulate not only the girls, but also their talented coaches – Vladimir Kalinin and Pavel Malakhov.
Emotions are purely positive! We finally managed to get into the prizes at the student competitions, which we are very happy about. This year everything worked out, we have a very friendly and ambitious team. Many thanks to the girls for their dedication, somewhere for self-sacrifice, for believing in the process that gave a result. Thanks to the sports club, which actively helps us develop and become a formidable force not only among universities, but also in city competitions. Third place is a huge success for us, but we have something to strive for. Next year we will certainly try to improve this result. Thanks to everyone who supported us, you are the best! – shared his impressions the head coach of the team Vladimir Kalinin.
I am very happy that our team is in the top three. I am proud of everyone who took part in this! Women’s football at the Polytechnic, as it turned out, can also bring results. It is nice to realize that what we have been working towards for a very long time and with great difficulty, we now have. And that the places will be even higher in the future. Work hard, friends! It is very symbolic and pleasant that we won bronze on Valery Petrovich Sushchenko’s birthday, because we promised him the cup. Once again, thank you and congratulations to everyone! – said team captain Maya Fialko.
