00:00 Since there was nobody home in zone number one, Cicero Dina receives Canino.

00:06 Yes! She has an excellent eye for spotting those open spaces.

00:11 Exactly, and it's just beautiful to see Angel Canino on the right pin, playing as an opposite attacker.

00:19 In between the blockers and that.

00:21 Together with Ia Laure, they were the prolific pair, but there were four other players that scored in double digits there.

00:28 Here's a strike, kept in play by Canino.

00:31 Here's Laure, whips it, kept alive by the Indian side.

00:35 Double whammy, Dalibero of India is there.

00:37 Gini, with the set, it's blocked, and we will have to block all night long.

00:41 And there's McAldeely, it's still alive.

00:45 Morado, Zitengusman has it.

00:47 Here's Gini, here's the whip.

00:49 McAldeely is there, and the slap by Laure.

00:54 It's a score, and listen to the scrap roar!

00:59 Both teams really scrappy on the floor defense.

01:04 We've got to have the patience here to convert the point, and Ia Laure there, taking advantage of that loose block of India.

01:13 You know, you six are there.

01:15 Right.

01:16 I think you can be in any position, but some grow accustomed to a particular spot.

01:22 And the drop by Zitengusman!

01:25 Gia Zitengusman again, also a threat in offense, known to be an offensive setter here.

01:35 Perfect timing again on that one-two play.

01:38 They're doing no record here.

01:40 They want to climb into the next phase with a good record.

01:44 And that is off the rocker.

01:46 Canino knocking it in in the Philippines.

01:50 Black back in the lead.

01:52 Angel Canino, so far unstoppable in this set.

01:57 Oh, her angles really.

02:00 Choosing the right ones, finding the weak spots on the floor.

02:04 One point lead by India here in the first.

02:07 The reverse set!

02:09 Touch glass by Anagha.

02:13 And we're squared at 15.

02:16 We have to mention how Don Macandili-Catindig has been delivering perfect first balls here.

02:23 Nobody is led by more than two.

02:27 Charma serves.

02:29 Oh, too hot to handle.

02:31 Swati unable to handle it.

02:34 And the Philippines has a two-pointer.

02:36 P.P. Charma, one of the bright spots for the Philippines on the service line.

02:43 Has been delivering hard serves here in that attack.

02:48 Good serve.

02:50 Reverse. Canino.

02:53 Angel Canino has been perfect so far for the Las Filipinas.

03:08 That's Anagha. And she's had a hot first set.

03:15 This is a good counter.

03:17 Charma's blind.

03:19 That's when the Philippines' bay is closed.

03:21 Their game here because it really boiled down to the errors in the first set.

03:25 They're trying to get Cece on track.

03:29 Cece Rodina was relegated most of the time to the back row and could not swing in front

03:34 because the serve was not going the way of the Philippines.

03:37 So the rotation was not favoring the Philippines.

03:41 But here we get the first point.

03:43 Confidence of Cece in this match.

03:45 Here's De Guzman.

03:48 Jeannie.

03:49 Lauder got to it.

03:52 Rodina!

03:54 Cece Rodina.

04:02 Hammering that one in.

04:04 Take a look at that elevation.

04:07 Taking advantage of that late block.

04:10 Here's Shilpa Ravindranar Sindhu.

04:15 Canino.

04:17 And she guards the boots again.

04:20 With a variety of angles and attacks of Angel Canino,

04:27 it's really confusing the blockers of India.

04:32 That's eight serves against ten.

04:34 They play short.

04:35 Regalo.

04:36 Yes! Rodina!

04:38 Hammer time!

04:40 Cece Rodina.

04:45 Ready for that overpass.

04:49 Perfect angle to get that point.

04:52 You don't want me, man.

04:54 Can't take anything away from India.

04:58 They're playing well, but Gagate says, "Let's keep fighting."

05:02 You know, in the surprise plays from the middles,

05:05 from Phi Phi Sharma, from Thea Gagate,

05:08 has been the side out that they have been needing here

05:11 not to let India get a bigger lead.

05:15 So far, the tempo of India has been at a higher rate than the Philippines.

05:20 Deep.

05:23 Chance.

05:26 Oh, Gagate!

05:28 Short serve.

05:35 Regalo!

05:36 Yes! The Philippines has a two-point lead.

05:39 Philippines scoring the last three points.

05:43 Back-to-back points for Thea Gagate,

05:46 but we have to credit the good serving of Phi Phi Sharma.

05:50 Challenging the first ball of India here.

05:54 17, serving 17.

05:56 Oh!

06:03 Yes, sir!

06:04 Angel Canino!

06:06 Perfect execution of a combination play, Thea Gagate.

06:16 Getting two blockers.

06:18 No blockers there for Angel Canino.

06:21 Seven must be avoiding the hands of the block.

06:24 Nerva.

06:25 Canino!

06:28 Canino!

06:30 Problematic, but Gini does well.

06:38 And the Philippines is at set point!

06:41 Two points for the Philippines!

06:48 Angel Canino from offense to defense,

06:52 having an all-around game so far.

06:54 And Magha, what was the...

06:56 Chance for the Philippines to close it out.

07:00 Yes! Yes!

07:03 And the Philippines has tied this game at one set apiece!

07:14 Angel Canino with three consecutive points

07:18 to win this set for Alas Filipinas.

07:22 But Gia De Guzman just really orchestrating the offense perfectly.

07:27 Philippines falling behind by as much as four in this second set,

07:31 but recovering just in time.

07:33 Good decision-making.

07:35 Here's Ansuri Morada.

07:38 Ball returned to the Philippines.

07:41 Canino heaves a tie.

07:42 Lauri blasts.

07:44 Excellent track down by Sha'al Lani.

07:47 And Rondina with a somersault in the back row.

07:51 Lauri whips it in.

07:53 India's floor defense doing well here.

07:56 So does the Philippines.

07:57 Nerva makes it a set for Rondina!

08:00 It's still alive.

08:01 And another long rally being played out here.

08:03 Kept alive by Gagate.

08:05 Gagate says, "Thank you, I got it back."

08:09 This could take a while.

08:12 But Rondina says, "Woo!"

08:15 Nearly, but not quite.

08:17 And it's heaped over by India.

08:19 Morada and De Guzman.

08:21 Canino.

08:23 India will give a free ball.

08:26 And it's a strike down the left.

08:28 Nerva.

08:29 Lauri!

08:30 Yes!

08:31 Lauri!

08:33 Oh, so close!

08:36 What a rally!

08:39 Both teams playing scrappy defense.

08:42 But Lauri powering through.

08:46 The blockers on the...

08:48 Five apiece.

08:52 De Guzman makes it a set for Canino.

08:54 It's lifted high by the back row of India.

08:57 Nerva.

08:59 Jian with a good stop.

09:01 Rondina!

09:02 And it's a rally.

09:04 Sisi Rondina!

09:07 Sisi Rondina on a fist with two blockers there.

09:16 Sets going separate ways.

09:18 One for India, one for the Philippines.

09:20 Here's Gini.

09:22 Nice tap.

09:23 Rondina wise to it.

09:24 Morada, De Guzman, sets up Canino.

09:27 And India has to heave it over.

09:30 Quick!

09:31 Perfectly done with Gagate.

09:33 Plastic away.

09:35 And it is a good decision to tell Sharma, "Serve."

09:39 Serve.

09:40 Uh-oh.

09:41 Uh-oh, what is happening to India right now?

09:45 Philippines 5-5, 11-6.

09:48 But still a long ways to go.

09:51 Four-point lead, not against this sturdy, hard-working Indian side.

09:56 The block, Aswati gets to it.

09:58 Gini.

09:59 This is...

10:00 Gagate, the right foot.

10:02 Relishing the moment.

10:04 Wasn't the best angle there for India.

10:09 I mean, they chose Thea Gagate, and Thea Gagate ready for that one.

10:14 Pressing her hands in right on time.

10:17 That's the first 25-22.

10:19 Philippines taking the second 25-21.

10:22 Oh, look at that.

10:27 Don, so great, Don.

10:28 Dina rips it.

10:30 But still in play.

10:31 Chance for India.

10:33 Canino!

10:37 And that will stay in!

10:39 What a big effort by Don Makandili Katindig, keeping that alive.

10:46 You've got to have to give that point to Don Makandili Katindig.

10:51 Look at her go for that save.

10:55 But again, Angel Canino just playing flawless volleyball here.

11:00 Aswati.

11:07 Thea is like a libero, actually.

11:12 That shot!

11:13 Oh!

11:14 Oh!

11:15 Goal!

11:16 And when the bench contributes, it's a reason to celebrate.

11:22 Instant contribution there for Ana Panique.

11:26 She played it safe, going for that off-speed, but she chose the right angle to get that point.

11:33 You agree or not?

11:35 The serve is allowed.

11:38 Look at this, Thea, the libero.

11:45 Number two for the Philippines.

11:47 And that top!

11:48 Look at this!

11:49 Panique!

11:50 Panique delivers!

11:53 What a time for her to point the ball off the bench.

11:59 Again, a soft touch, but the right decision.

12:03 Aswati.

12:08 Ah, well done.

12:10 Well done, that's in.

12:12 No question, Shalini.

12:14 Clean attack there.

12:17 Yeah.

12:19 But we can't afford an error here.

12:21 And she gets a round of applause from the audience and her teammates, and they're all giggly.

12:34 India serves.

12:37 One point to go for the Philippines.

12:39 And it in!

12:41 The Philippines has a two-set, two-on lead against India!

12:48 That has won its game.

12:50 There's the father of Phi Phi Sharma.

12:52 And the Philippines, two sets, two-on lead.

12:57 25-17 in the third.

13:00 Now let's see how India responds in the fourth.

13:04 Watch this.

13:05 Another Gia-Phi Phi connection to end the third set.

13:10 And look at this.

13:13 A gap in between Canino and Deneb.

13:17 Lauret powers in, and she's beginning to percolate.

13:22 Executive points coming from Aya Lauret.

13:28 I mean, Jeannie had a good rebound on that one.

13:32 It was high enough for a good coverage.

13:35 But no support there coming from the floor defense of India.

13:39 And the Philippines takes care of that one.

13:47 She just jumps up and down as a middle blocker.

13:50 Free ball.

13:52 Sisi says, "Give it to me!"

13:56 But what?

13:59 Free ball.

14:00 Sisi says, "Give it back!"

14:03 But Gagate says, "Yeah, it's my night!"

14:06 It's my night!

14:09 Deneb Gagate is a good player to challenge the taller Surya.

14:13 Take a look at this replay.

14:16 She has the height and length to counter the height of Surya.

14:21 They want this to go to the Philippines, but it's still anybody.

14:26 Until Gia Morano, De Guzman says, "Let's make this happen."

14:34 And the timing of that one-two play will be crucial.

14:39 And Gia Morano, De Guzman getting that point.

14:43 The team captain.

14:44 Lauret's been the recipient of so many serves.

14:50 But Dena powers it home.

14:56 The speed of how Alas, Filipinas is playing is just too much for the height of India.

15:05 Too fast there, a lot of gaps in the block.

15:08 Dena's serve.

15:09 Uh-oh.

15:10 Almost a disaster there.

15:13 Luna.

15:15 And even the bench is contributing.

15:20 Look at the delight of the players along the sideline.

15:25 The quality of players and the quality of talent from Alas, Filipinas has been really spectacular here.

15:32 Ara Paniki earlier this time.

15:34 Oh, return.

15:38 Oh!

15:39 Oh!

15:40 And listen to this crowd roar!

15:44 Philippines have match points.

15:50 Don Macandini, Kapindig getting a point there.

15:56 What floor defense.

16:00 Serve.

16:02 Oh!

16:06 And the Philippines win its second straight win.

16:11 Another four-set win.

16:17 Tying India in the pole standings.

16:21 What a performance by Alas, Filipinas in the semifinals.

16:28 Now take a look at this winning point of Ella Lauret.

16:33 Cheri Luna holding on to the blockers.

16:36 Open block, a perfect way to get their second win.

16:46 And the joy for the Philippines and its love for volleyball will overflow tonight.
