00:00 That's Kim Fajardo and Majoy Barron for PLDT and Ara Galang and Abimaranyo for Sherry.

00:10 First connection. It's good to see her healthy also.

00:16 And good decision for Fajardo to activate the middles early. It's gonna free up the wings later on.

00:23 Arado with a dig from Karandang. What an angle!

00:28 Savvy Davidson, not all power. We all know she's very powerful but she saw that angle, that spot.

00:35 Make the right adjustments for today's match. This report was brought to you by the Pilipinas Live app.

00:39 Get the most extensive PBL coverage for only P149 a month. Back to the game.

00:43 Thank you very much Franny. Fantastic report there on the Cheri Tingo crossovers.

00:50 They can't pass the ball that's why she chose the check out.

00:56 Good first ball. Savvy! Right on top of that one!

01:00 The first bazooka from Savvy Davidson.

01:04 Overpass. Karandang. Savvy on the other side.

01:11 Very smart. The luxury of being able to stay up in the air.

01:16 Savvy Davidson just proving that she's very versatile in her attacks.

01:23 Maybe bounce balls. If you get the timing right, that's when you can stop her.

01:29 But in that sequence, Erica Santos.

01:34 Back to the previous conference. As you see this opposite attack.

01:38 Brought to you by Duncan. Pasalubong ng bayan. We'll be back.

01:44 And that's why they're still in this.

01:47 They will continue to attack Savvy Davidson's receiving skills, Rex, in this game.

01:54 And another Zakarandang connection with Alina Vicar.

01:59 Coming into this game, it's PLDT being the top serving team.

02:04 But in this first set, just like that, Cheri Tingo is leading 9-8.

02:11 Madjoy power tips it. Ea, Sinungkit. Good save.

02:17 Oh! What happened there? Aragadang.

02:21 Benefits from it. Alina takes a look at the defense. Goes to EJ.

02:27 Fajardo opens up. Ceballos breaking the block. Ea from behind.

02:36 You really have to time it well. Because if it hits even if you have your hands on the side, it's going to be really hard for the defender.

02:44 Balique testing her skills too. And a chance ball.

02:52 Oh! And nobody taking the first ball. 5-1 Cheri Tingo Ramos.

02:59 That was the 5 of them. That's a classic example of a campfire.

03:06 Hits that are low and fast.

03:08 EJ with a hop. Setback! And what a counter right here by PLDT.

03:18 Unleashed after the 5-1 run of Cheri.

03:21 That was Del Paloma, powering over everyone.

03:25 There are always a lot of quotable quotes. They love listening to Coach Kung Fu.

03:29 I'm sure the girls don't like listening to him in this situation.

03:34 Because PLDT is continuously on the rebound.

03:38 With Aragadang catching the corner there. What a spot.

03:42 The defense of PLDT is working but that time Aragadang really went for the one with no one.

03:51 Wow! That is unstoppable.

03:54 Perfect pass. This is a perfect pass for her.

03:57 Look at the high-con productive bench player has now checked in for Cheri Tingo.

04:02 Mylene Patu comes off the bench to score 9.75 points a game.

04:08 She's on the bench. She's in now.

04:11 The push. Nierva. Balik kay Mylene. Umataw.

04:17 Kim will go to Savvy. A little off her strike zone.

04:22 Mylene also finds a spot and that is the reason why.

04:26 Mylene just got in but here she is finishing that maybe our longest rally in this game.

04:36 To be in the 100. Yeah.

04:38 For the semifinals.

04:40 To be right there in the semifinals.

04:44 This is what Coach Rav was saying earlier.

04:47 Because there's been...

04:49 He saw that A. Alauri is the weakest blocker in the front line.

04:53 Jasmine reverses to Mylene and Mylene is rejected.

04:59 2-0 Reds.

05:00 And what a block from Majoy.

05:03 Sav from behind.

05:10 Bumalik.

05:12 Simbalios takes this one.

05:14 Bumalik na naman.

05:15 Karat Arado there for coverage.

05:18 And a free ball for Cheri Tingo.

05:20 They choose EJ who chooses to go to the corner.

05:24 Vintage.

05:26 Masyado siya malapit sa attack line.

05:30 Kaya pin-target na yung dulo.

05:32 And no one was there for...

05:33 Another 5-1 and now a 6-1 run.

05:36 Another good serve.

05:39 And another free ball for Cheri Tingo with a 4-point lead.

05:42 Galang!

05:44 Donut hole!

05:46 Magba-block dito kaya Aragalang.

05:48 Kaya ipipilit niya na be quick yung quicker.

05:50 But they didn't get the first ball needed.

05:54 Arado again saving that play.

05:57 Another overpass!

05:58 And you cannot give an overpass to fly in.

06:02 Tsaka parang vertical leap na lang yata yun.

06:05 Walang vuelo.

06:06 What a save.

06:08 Yeah, what a save from Tata Arado.

06:10 Ito yun, oh?

06:11 Tata ko po!

06:12 We were at 24-19.

06:16 That's a better one.

06:18 They go to Robles who breaks the block!

06:22 The point to take set number one.

06:28 Respond when it matters most.

06:30 And that's something that I remembered listening into their huddle before this set.

06:34 Sabi ni Coach Roderick ako, hindi nila kailangan manggigil.

06:37 Masyado silang nanggigigil.

06:39 And those are causing those errors in this match.

06:42 They aren't able to play the game that they know.

06:45 In this early second set.

06:47 Chave with a pass.

06:50 Another one sent back.

06:54 And another chance to counter for the red shirts.

06:57 But this time, Rajoy Barol says no entry!

07:03 A. Alaure with five, as expected.

07:07 Open to Ara.

07:09 And Ara!

07:11 Full swing!

07:14 2-5.

07:18 EJ, outside hand check out.

07:24 Today with three points so far.

07:27 Goes to Ceballos.

07:29 Oh, that's a great draw by Rajoy!

07:33 But they go back on the counter.

07:35 Libre libre para kay EJ!

07:38 Infiltrate ng attack from EJ.

07:41 That's why no defender was present on that one.

07:45 No spin.

07:48 Another good serve.

07:50 And another check out by EJ.

07:55 They're in the right formation, but that's just pure power.

07:58 Overpass.

08:02 But it's sent back.

08:03 Balik kay Ea.

08:04 Ea will make something out of it.

08:06 Secondary setter, Erica, with the touch.

08:09 Kaf will go to the middle!

08:16 It's kangihirap ng set na yan.

08:19 I mean, it looks easy on TV.

08:21 Preferably nakikita niya yung mga medals niya kapag mababa rin yung bola.

08:30 Jules Samonte, who came in towards the end of that first set.

08:33 Back here.

08:35 Good play by Cherry.

08:39 Ceballos here.

08:41 Sharp serve.

08:43 Nerva handling it very well.

08:45 EJ hopping again.

08:47 Kat.

08:48 Power tip.

08:50 Nahuli.

08:51 Oh, and a fake pass by Kaf.

08:54 Or the fake spike, rather.

08:56 Jules with a dig.

08:59 Double dig!

09:00 Savvy!

09:01 Oh!

09:03 Sinong kit!

09:05 Hey Kaf, Samonte was behind her.

09:08 Some phenomenal rallies in this match so far.

09:12 And that's mainly due to the amazing floor defense by both Jen Nerva and Kat Arado.

09:18 And I got to speak with both of them.

09:20 Trying to pump herself up.

09:22 Saying, "Come on, come on."

09:23 Not out of it yet.

09:26 They're down five, though.

09:27 Oh, but Ea Laude's got her number.

09:30 Davidson at the back row.

09:33 So who do you go to?

09:35 Another one!

09:38 Ea Laude has been doing it all.

09:41 Eight points.

09:42 PLDT trying to look for some answers here.

09:46 Yeah.

09:47 They need a spark in this second set.

09:49 Santos kept it alive.

09:55 And if you're PLDT, you want to do things right even at the end.

10:00 Para to have momentum coming into the third set.

10:03 Cherry's just been defending so well, didn't she?

10:06 And then they have Ea in front.

10:10 Cherry making it look easy here right now.

10:15 Manjoy!

10:17 With her sixth point.

10:21 Even the body language and the faces here of PLDT,

10:24 they don't look as positive as they did in that first set.

10:29 That's Aragadam.

10:30 Closes the show here.

10:33 PLDT high-speed hitters.

10:36 Xavi.

10:39 Oh, this time Gen Yerba covered the right angle.

10:42 That sharp angle.

10:44 Bikar able to get the right hand going.

10:50 Kath back to Xavi.

10:51 Goes down the line this time.

10:53 We all know, Rex, that no one wins in two sets.

10:58 Especially when you have that girl.

11:03 Catch fire.

11:05 And even Captain Abby Marano told me she's expecting

11:07 a very high level of volleyball from her team today.

11:11 Now the Creamline Cool Smashers, the Signal HD Spikers,

11:14 they all suffered three sets to the crossovers.

11:17 Will the high-speed hitters experience the same fate?

11:20 Let's find out.

11:21 With a three-point lead.

11:23 Xav rolls it.

11:27 Yerba was waiting.

11:29 That's classic EJ Laure.

11:35 And they keep attacking.

11:37 It's possible for both to be straight sets.

11:41 But let's not speak too soon.

11:44 Because Keisha Bedonia is now in the ballgame

11:47 for the very first time for PLDT to try to change

11:50 things up here.

11:52 That's in.

11:54 And a beautiful pass by Keisha Bedonia.

11:58 Back to Xavi.

12:03 Pancake by Ara.

12:07 T-Mac back.

12:12 It's a one-one.

12:13 It's like a replay.

12:14 But the ball is going to fall.

12:15 Jules on the other end.

12:21 Access denied.

12:24 11-13.

12:29 We have a beautiful one-hand set by Alina Vicar.

12:33 Probably in recent years, this is really just,

12:37 it's really anybody's right now.

12:39 Anybody's championship right now.

12:41 Like there's no sure win in the games.

12:43 A fly ball.

12:47 It just went in.

12:48 Instant offense.

12:49 Three points for Mailes.

12:50 Game so seriously.

12:52 Actually when you watch her play,

12:53 she looks so intense.

12:55 She won't be happy about that either.

12:58 She's so broad.

13:00 She's about to fall.

13:02 And Bedonia.

13:07 One point for Mexico.

13:08 Bedonia gets it back.

13:13 Goes cross.

13:15 Maile chasing.

13:17 Sends it easily to the other side.

13:20 Oh, what a beautiful attack by Palomata.

13:23 They score one.

13:25 For Cherry, she did everything for UST also.

13:28 She defends.

13:29 She blocks.

13:31 What a game.

13:35 We expected a close game, not this.

13:37 Kind of a...

13:39 Piston play.

13:46 Xavi will get it back.

13:48 That is in.

13:50 It's Cherry-Tigo.

13:57 And after this, it's gonna be Signal.

13:59 And then Creamline.

14:00 For PLDT,

14:04 they really have to win two of those three games.

14:06 So they need to win the game against Signal and Creamline.

14:11 If they're going to lose here,

14:14 they're down six.

14:16 Xavi.

14:17 Tigo squad, it's fierce.

14:23 And Aya Laure really showing her ferocity in that attack.

14:28 Speaking of,

14:30 Xavi Davison.

14:32 Oh.

14:33 Nervous Ace.

14:35 This is like what happened.

14:37 Quimfardo, still serving here at the Phil Sports Arena.

14:41 19-24.

14:42 Ara Pumatong.

14:47 And Ara Gara finishes off the PLDT high-speed hitters.
