St. Petersburg, May 13, Taras Barabash. European Champion 2013 in volleyball Alexei Spiridonov said that the head coach of Kaliningrad Lokomotiv Andrey Voronkov should receive several matches of disqualification after his statements during the final series of the playoffs of the championship of Russia. Lokomotiv won the final series against Uralochka-NTMK from the Sverdlovsk region on Thursday playoffs (3-2). The team became the champion of Russia for the second time in a row. At the end of the third game, Voronkov took a time out and said to one of his volleyball players: «Why are you catching this monkey again?» The phrase went live. Prior to that, the Cuban striker «Uralochka-NTMK» Ailama Sese Montalvo brought a few points to his team. A club from the Sverdlovsk region demanded an apology.
"To reconcile Voronkov and Ailama Sese Montalvo? You can't get the words out of nowhere. Of course, an apology is needed. It was all said in a fit of emotion, it was the final, everything is clear, the fifth match. I think that in order to besiege Andrei Gennadievich (Voronkov), a couple of disqualification matches should be given to him. He will understand that it is impossible to speak out like this", — said Spiridonov.
