Saratov's Proton achieved a decisive 3:0 (25:19, 25:20, 25:11) victory over Omichka, demonstrating superiority in all elements of the game. Bulgarian national player Hristina Vuchkova was once again among the key figures, and it was she who scored the winning match point with an attack through the middle.
Vuchkova played an exceptionally stable match. With 9 points, five of which were from attack and four from blocks, she was among Proton's top scorers.
Her attack efficiency (56%) is above the average level for middle blockers in the Russian Super League, and 100% success in reception shows that her defensive play was flawless.

Her block was crucial in the third set when she stopped several attacks by Madeline Guillén, and the final point of the match – the winning match point – came precisely after her attack from zone three.

Hristina Vuchkova solidifies her position as one of the most effective middle blockers in the championship and a key pillar in coach Yuri Marichev's system. Thus, after the fourth round, Proton is in fifth position with 6 points.
