00:00 here in the lineup.

00:01 Jorge Banez will be the receiving libero

00:04 and Vic Forenzo will be the digging libero.

00:07 Alas Pilipinas will get their first point

00:10 off that quick attack.

00:11 Lloyd Dosafat and Jade Disketado are the changes

00:18 in the starting lineup for Alas Pilipinas.

00:21 Romandal getting ready to serve.

00:24 3-2 is the score.

00:28 And the dive, saved.

00:30 Oh, credit that to Vince Lorenzo for saving that ball.

00:34 And then the attack.

00:36 No free ball from Mark Espejo.

00:41 It's already an out of system play

00:45 but he was still able to get past the defenders of Thailand.

00:48 Quick two points for Mark Espejo.

00:50 Serving once again.

00:52 It's a good serve, two-point lead for Alas Pilipinas.

00:57 Saved the set and the point for Kim Malabunga.

01:01 The NU connection right there.

01:03 It's been a while since they were teammates

01:06 but we've seen a lot of that center-middle connection

01:11 from Oaretamar and Kim Malabunga.

01:13 Seven points in that win against Chinese Taipei.

01:18 One-point lead.

01:21 But a tied game after that emphatic kill from Lloyd Dosafat.

01:26 Three quick works for Lloyd Dosafat.

01:29 Double block was definitely late for Thailand.

01:34 They enjoyed that point.

01:37 The play continues.

01:38 Retamar goes to the left.

01:41 Kept alive.

01:42 That was a save coming from Prasert.

01:44 Second try for Thailand.

01:49 They go to the captain.

01:50 Esquitado picks it up.

01:52 Goes for the attack and the score.

01:55 Philippines starting to heat up.

01:57 Oaretamar has been dishing out a lot of excellent sets

02:02 from all sides of the court.

02:04 We like that coming from Jade

02:09 as we are halfway through the opening set.

02:12 Ibanez picks it up.

02:15 Retamar tosses and Espejo takes care of it.

02:18 Joshua Ibanez is so comfortable in that overhead pass.

02:23 So much control in that first ball.

02:26 Oaretamar sending that way to Marcus Espejo.

02:32 You know that.

02:33 Again, the Thais are just forcing the Filipinos

02:37 to commit mistakes on the pass.

02:39 Consistency has been up and down in that department.

02:44 But every time Alas Pilipinas gets a good first ball,

02:48 they immediately convert of that first ball.

02:51 Down by three points.

02:54 17 serving 20 here in set number one.

02:59 At the chase.

03:03 Oh, what a setup.

03:04 Retamar was there for the pickup.

03:06 They go to Umandal.

03:09 Play continues.

03:11 Jau again.

03:12 And the second try works.

03:14 That's what you get when you have coverage behind attackers.

03:18 Jau Umandal wasn't playing.

03:19 Behind the attackers, Jau Umandal wasn't able to get the kill

03:22 from his first attempt.

03:23 But Vince Lorenzo was there and that provided Jau Umandal.

03:26 These errors from the service line,

03:29 when you add them all up,

03:31 you would see the impact on the set score.

03:34 Yeah.

03:35 Definitely, this would have been a different ball game

03:39 had the Philippines limited their errors.

03:43 But it's not yet done.

03:45 And Kim Malabunga giving them a fighting chance with that point.

03:49 Umandal serving.

03:51 And this time it's an ace.

03:53 Finally.

03:54 A service ace for the Philippines.

03:57 They've been trying to deliver a lot of heavy serves

04:00 towards the receivers of Thailand.

04:02 And that's really a service, right?

04:05 High risk, high reward for Jau Umandal.

04:07 You see.

04:08 Really finding the right targets when it comes to their serving.

04:13 Jau Umandal scoring off the block.

04:18 First point here in set number 2.

04:20 Retamar had no choice but to push that over.

04:32 There he goes to Ozafat.

04:35 That's been effective for Las Filipinas.

04:41 Look at how Lloyd Ozafat changed his angle.

04:44 He saw the double block.

04:47 Play continues.

04:48 3-point lead for Thailand.

04:51 Let's see how Las Filipinas will respond.

04:54 Umandal stops the bleeding.

04:58 That's all about recovery for Las Filipinas.

05:02 I guess from time to time they give out a couple of free points to Thailand.

05:08 11-10.

05:12 Good ball by Ibanez.

05:15 That leads to the Disquitado attack.

05:17 And that's the thing about young guns.

05:21 They're not intimidated.

05:23 They have so much energy.

05:25 So much power in their bodies.

05:27 Just a ball of the bat as Disquitado.

05:31 And you can't afford to have those types of half-baked blocks.

05:38 You have to be solid.

05:39 Retamar back sets.

05:43 Retamar back sets to Espejo.

05:46 Good response.

05:48 17-16.

05:56 Espejo with a good serve.

05:58 No! Miss cue.

06:00 On the second ball between Andurac and Amointep.

06:04 That will be the first service ace of Marcus Pejo here in the second set.

06:12 No follow-up for the Thais.

06:16 And that's because they're now looking to build and get a two-set advantage.

06:24 But Jey Disquitado says otherwise.

06:27 Good response after the timeout from the youngster.

06:31 Jey Disquitado is on fire for Las Filipinas.

06:36 Single block.

06:39 Single block.

06:41 Goes for the serve.

06:44 Flips the net.

06:45 Unyarit sets up the play.

06:48 Denied!

06:49 And the big block coming from Jau Umandal.

06:52 That's a taste of their own medicine.

06:55 They've been checking Jau Umandal.

06:57 Now is the perfect time for Jau to come up big and score for the Philippines.

07:03 And it's seldom that this has to go through.

07:07 And that's a safe serve.

07:10 Now he's back with Thailand.

07:13 Bunyarit tosses it to the left.

07:15 Denied!

07:17 But still playable.

07:18 Chance here for the Philippines.

07:20 Retamor goes to Malabunga.

07:24 Unpredictability is not working for a Las Filipinas.

07:28 Quick set to Kim Malabunga.

07:32 That was just a vertical jump.

07:35 He wasn't able to get a full approach.

07:37 But in transition you really have to play it fast.

07:41 He puts a Las Filipinas at set point 24 to 23.

07:47 Almendra saves it.

07:53 Retamor.

07:55 Disquitado.

07:57 Or Espejo rather.

07:59 And Mark Espejo gets that point.

08:04 After getting blocked, Mark Espejo will get a clean attack.

08:09 Sharp cross court. Good to go for a Las Filipinas.

08:12 Look at that cross court kill coming from Mark Espejo.

08:17 Now he is almost exclusively going to the middle blockers.

08:23 Great pass there from Mark Espejo.

08:26 And Nico Almendras will now get his first point of the match.

08:33 And he joins the scoring column.

08:35 Did not see action in the first two games.

08:38 Two point lead.

08:40 Six serving four.

08:42 This is Anujit Ondek.

08:45 Back set to Disquitado.

08:51 Picked up.

08:53 He'll go to the left side and a facial.

08:56 To Disquitado.

08:59 Straight to the face and...

09:03 You see number 10, Jack Ridd, apologizing for the hit.

09:07 That is part of the game.

09:11 That was a difficult angle to make because Owarekamar was already there.

09:20 It happened so fast in game for Disquitado.

09:23 Just couldn't avoid that ball.

09:27 That can be painful. That's not a soft hit.

09:31 You can get hit on the side of the head.

09:33 It's painful.

09:35 What more in front of your face as...

09:39 Espejo answers back.

09:43 Espejo finds that corner pocket.

09:48 He got it back.

09:50 Saranchit now serving.

09:54 7 to 8.

09:57 Again that connection between him and Osafat.

10:01 Not working but...

10:03 Lloyd Osafat doing it on defense.

10:06 Lloyd Osafat and Owarekamar...

10:10 Have been the source of the block points of the Philippines.

10:16 Anurag serving 8 to 10.

10:24 Good ball by Lorenzo.

10:25 And the point from Disquitado.

10:29 This time on the left side.

10:32 Look at the leaping ability.

10:38 You have to be firm.

10:43 One-hand set.

10:47 And what an attack for Nico Almeida.

10:51 What a set for Owarekamar that takes a lot of skill and mastery.

10:57 But he was able to push that ball.

11:03 3-point lead.

11:05 Oversee chance once again.

11:09 Espejo.

11:11 Slowed down.

11:13 The block.

11:17 A supercord attack.

11:19 That's something that they weren't able to do a while ago.

11:23 But Malabunga...

11:25 With his outstretched arms delivering that one.

11:30 ...away from taking a 2-set 2-1 lead.

11:35 Off the block.

11:37 Disquitado scores.

11:46 Alas, Philippines pulled off a successful comeback in set number 2.

11:51 If you can take that risk, you can double up on Amonte.

11:54 And leave a single blocker to the other attackers.

11:58 Retamar.

12:02 Another chance here for Thailand.

12:06 It's a block and it's inside.

12:09 Espejo and Osafat.

12:11 Teaming up on the left side.

12:15 Teaming up on that one.

12:16 This would be the best blocking set for Alas, Philippines in the entire tournament.

12:22 3 set points for them.

12:25 Retamar goes to Malabunga.

12:29 That's one point saved.

12:31 Marcus Espejo will now...

12:40 Move to the front line.

12:43 Amonte touched the net as well for Thailand.

12:45 That was number 12.

12:48 Anochip.

12:51 Even though Amonte has a small space left, he still finds a way to kill that ball.

13:02 Back row hit for Noel Captain.

13:06 His first point.

13:08 Fresh legs for the Philippines.

13:13 Good pick up from Disquitado.

13:14 Retamar finding the spot.

13:16 Smart play.

13:18 Court sense from Owaretamar.

13:20 Initially I thought that it would be a joust at the net.

13:23 Or a battle at the net.

13:25 But he saw that we were going to have a lot of space.

13:28 And he was able to get a lot of space.

13:30 And he was able to get a lot of space.

13:32 And he was able to get a lot of space.

13:34 And he was able to get a lot of space.

13:36 And he was able to get a lot of space.

13:38 And he was able to get a lot of space.

13:41 And he saw that Lebel was also behind the blocker.

13:44 For the Philippines.

13:46 Tied game at 10-all.

13:48 Retamar.

13:50 Upset to Captain.

13:52 The dive by two players.

13:56 Captain getting another point.

14:00 Point number 3 for Noel Captain.

14:05 Yup, that ball already hit the floor.

14:08 And it was a good shot by Amorin Tep.

14:11 What an upset to Captain.

14:15 He's been an X-Factor here in set number 4.

14:20 Quick swing from Noel Captain against a single block.

14:31 And a chip serving for Thailand.

14:38 Oa goes back to Espejo.

14:41 And it's inside and a point.

14:44 And Mark Espejo is starting to come alive.

14:51 Here in set number 4.

14:54 With everybody on the same page.

14:58 Everybody on the same page.

14:59 And that was Noel Captain.

15:09 Coming alive here in set number 4.

15:14 Did not see action in the first three sets.

15:17 But look at what he has done for Alas, Pilipinas.

15:20 He's been waiting for his moment.

15:25 And there you go, play continues. And a block for Lloyd Osafat.

15:29 Never mind the noise.

15:32 As he focuses on that rejection.

15:36 Solo block against Tanapar.

15:46 And this.

15:49 Supakorn.

15:53 With a chance to end this one.

15:55 Almost.

15:58 Esquitado.

16:00 Able to save it.

16:02 Thailand will have 4 chances.

16:10 To get this win.

16:13 Play perfect volleyball from here on out.

16:17 Back row.

16:22 Ritamar.

16:23 Espejo.

16:25 That's out.

16:27 And Lloyd in Thailand wins the match.
