00:00Four sets over the Cream 9 Cool Smashers.
00:02No, that was a non-betting game.
00:04But you know, as well as with everybody else,
00:07all teams just want to end this elimination round on a high note.
00:12And we did talk about our four teams who have made it into the finals.
00:21But again, for the rest of the teams,
00:24going up against the more, I'd say, seasoned teams,
00:30it's such a great experience for them.
00:32I mean, just like that, look at Strong Group Athletics
00:35getting their first point.
00:37And what a dig there by Ahulan. Ball still alive.
00:41Soltones will choose to put it over.
00:43But Madrigal ends that rally.
00:46I mean, thank you for that, Franny.
00:48But that reminded me of, you know, the interview of
00:55the PODD player of the game, Savvy Davison,
00:58saying, you know, even if it's a non-betting game for us,
01:01we just want to end it.
01:02Nothing fancy yet, we're seeing from both these teams.
01:06Ka uli. To Onofre. Denied there at the net.
01:11Kaslan gets a check.
01:13Soltones was there.
01:15Manabat, soft tip.
01:18Success.
01:21A lot of variation behind her attacks here.
01:24Getting that point from a soft tip.
01:27That is our eighth, or their eighth point.
01:30She is a spectator today.
01:33So far, her team managing and has maintained this lead.
01:40And it's your final game day in this Strong Group Athletics.
01:45I know that I'm up against the second best blocking team
01:48here in the league.
01:49So maybe going into this game, I'll spike and attack
01:52the way I've never done before, at least in this conference.
01:55And really challenge, you know, the blockers on the side of Akari.
01:59Meanwhile, the advantage today.
02:00So this is just about ensuring, again, for our athletes,
02:05it's the most important thing.
02:07And recovery as well, no?
02:09That's right.
02:09I mean, it's a little bit novel also
02:12that we see each of the teams have more than 14 players.
02:16So, you know, there will be instances
02:19where we'll see how the players will make our teams spin.
02:23But speaking of making Santiago Madaba spin,
02:28I reckon in terms of attacking,
02:29that spike of the set is brought to you by Duncan.
02:37Don't forget to use the hashtag
02:40PVL 2024 and unofficially,
02:44happy fever.
02:54The balls to your middle blocker,
02:56because, you know, chances are if you set the middles,
02:59you catch the blockers off guard on cue right there.
03:03How cool and answered back, though, by Juanco.
03:08There is also that recognition, though,
03:10that they will need better passing for them
03:12to deliver those plays in the middle.
03:15Correct.
03:16Textbook play.
03:17Perfect pass, like you mentioned,
03:20set up for the middle
03:21as one of the outside hitters for today's match.
03:25I think a lot of people have missed seeing this.
03:29Definitely.
03:31A lot awaiting her first attempt later on, no?
03:37Pagbabalit.
03:37Here we go.
03:38Liban.
03:39Getting the set now.
03:40They go to Dindin.
03:42Easy catch up there to the middle.
03:45You see them actually look at Manab
03:48as we look at this hit from Manabal.
03:51You know, I can no longer remember
03:54because now, of course,
03:57we were so used to seeing her playing defense.
04:04With authority.
04:06Look at that this time from the previous set.
04:09I think that's something that we need to avoid.
04:12Really avoid committing these errors.
04:16Frukawa.
04:19Bumawe gets the point this time.
04:24They got a one-point lead here.
04:28Two serving.
04:29Hakulan with two points in this game.
04:34Tied with Rasnano, also with two points.
04:37Perfect pass from Nisperos.
04:39Perfect set to the middle.
04:42Maraginot, rather, playing also starting in this set.
04:47Nisperos.
04:48Yes.
04:50Up and above her blockers.
04:52Defensive.
04:53She's been doing the defensive role for quite some time.
04:57Sanraslan with three points.
04:59Setting us up to start here.
05:03Bersoza out of system.
05:07Fifi Sharma in the middle.
05:09Complete in attendance.
05:13Never missing a game.
05:17Oh, I was watching a football game.
05:22Of a strong group athletics.
05:24Pretty girl.
05:24Fifi Sharma sets us up.
05:27Bersoza rejected at the net.
05:31How cool on this time.
05:33Wow, look at the effort there on the side of the Chargers.
05:38Bersoza once again.
05:39Sharma was there.
05:42Back row for Nisperos.
05:44Romero putting the ball up.
05:46Raslan.
05:48Good exchange here.
05:50Oh, good one-arm save.
05:59Romero out of system to Bersoza.
06:02Rejected at the net.
06:03Once again to Bersoza.
06:05Down the line.
06:06That goes in.
06:08There's Akkari here.
06:09Two-point deficit.
06:14Oh, wow.
06:14Look at that.
06:16Maraginot taking matters in her own hand.
06:20The net really well.
06:22Hard serve from Maraginot.
06:25To Bersoza.
06:27Cuanco was there.
06:28In the middle.
06:29Rejected by Hao Kulan.
06:33Something that could be an advantage,
06:37like what we saw in the first set.
06:39Sultan is still on the service line.
06:43Oh, nice serve.
06:44But a good pass from Bersoza.
06:49Again, back row to Raslan.
06:52Malapit.
07:00Manabat.
07:02Manofer was there.
07:04Malapit will try again.
07:06Soltones pops it up.
07:08To Nesperos.
07:09Oh, nice coverage from Cuanco.
07:12Smart play denied there.
07:15Manabat.
07:17Romero with a dig.
07:19Bersoza.
07:20Rejected.
07:22And she gets the point.
07:26Oh, nice serve.
07:26Short serve from Bersoza.
07:3116-9 here in set number two.
07:33One set up as well.
07:35Bersoza with that first pass.
07:37Malapit.
07:39To the middle.
07:40Nice chase down by Maraginot.
07:41Look at that.
07:43Swing by Manabat.
07:45But what a way for Jaja Maraginot to control that set.
07:51Dolly.
07:54Easy pick up there from Soltones.
07:56They go to Manabat once again.
07:58Romero was there.
07:59Kaule.
08:01Malapit.
08:02Denied.
08:04You got Bang Pineda in here.
08:10There you go.
08:10Backslide kagad.
08:11But Fifi was there.
08:13Back set to Raslan.
08:16Kaule to Joy.
08:18Maraginot was there.
08:20Manabat will try again.
08:21Good check.
08:23Romero to Raslan.
08:25Denied again.
08:27Kaule to Raslan.
08:29Still denied.
08:30Great blocking from Akari.
08:32Bersoza from the back row.
08:34Baluton was there.
08:35Sharma ending that long rally.
08:39A couple of people in and out.
08:41Mixing it up with that nine-point lead.
08:47Miss cue there.
08:50Raslan finding that corner pocket.
08:57Of course, all these, it doesn't happen overnight.
09:00It is a process.
09:03You really get it.
09:04You get better at it in time.
09:07Baltizanzo.
09:10Last five points.
09:11Let's see if Jaja's gonna give a lot of attempts to Bang Pineda.
09:15I was waiting for that earlier.
09:18Ooh, a block point for Fifi.
09:22Sharma wants it.
09:24Nine-point lead.
09:26Nesperos with that jump serve.
09:27Wow.
09:29Free ball.
09:31Manabat was there.
09:34Bersoza popped that up.
09:36Raslan cross court.
09:38Nesperos was there.
09:40Bang Pineda, that was her first hit.
09:42Ooh, and a block by Sharma.
09:48It was a compliment.
09:49Yes.
09:51Raslan with that serve to Nesperos.
09:53Great first ball.
09:54Pineda rejected at the net.
09:58Coverage was there, but not enough.
10:00Bang.
10:00Even before, because she's not one of the tallest that we see,
10:04but her leaping ability.
10:07This time, still Jaja Maraginot starting in set number three.
10:13Bersoza goes cross court.
10:23No coverage there.
10:26You got Faith Nesperos here, jump serve.
10:31Bersoza with that pass.
10:35Ooh, Rebleza denying.
10:39They have to put a little bit more effort in,
10:41and they have to amp up their energy.
10:44It reminds me of my conversation with Coach Onyok before the game started,
10:47and he told me that he always tells the girls not to be,
10:50nothing is stopping them from going all out in this match.
10:54Now, this report was brought to you by the Pilipinas Live app.
10:56Get the most extensive PBL coverage for only 149 pesos a month.
11:00Back to you, Zian Anne.
11:02Thank you, Franny, for that insight.
11:06You were a passer back in your...
11:09Were you?
11:10Back in the day.
11:20If you're passing the ball,
11:24and you lose the chance to be able to set up the ball.
11:27So sometimes the coaches tell you to slow it down.
11:30You know, this is her fourth time serving already.
11:34When was the last time she really actually served in the game?
11:38But you're also very good ball control.
11:41Oh, yes.
11:42I mean, she has once been a beach medallist in the UAAP.
11:48And you know, they say if you're a beach volleyball player,
11:51you can really have so much control with the ball.
11:56You got Fifi Sharma.
12:00Romero was there.
12:02Oh, nice coverage by Kaole.
12:08From the back row.
12:09She's anticipating it too early.
12:12Those are the hits that are difficult to read.
12:15Yeah.
12:18There you go, Bang Pineda, playing defense, back row.
12:22Raslan will try again.
12:24And yes, she gets another point from the back row.
12:29That's zone five.
12:34Maraginot in the middle.
12:36And Rose Baliton powering through.
12:41Wonder what he's thinking right now.
12:45Well, they have such a big lead there.
12:48He is letting the girls make the decisions for themselves.
12:52And so far, it's going well for them.
12:58Good coverage from Juanco there.
12:59Making sure the ball stays up.
13:01Rebleza.
13:03Oh, this time tooling the blockers.
13:07All right.
13:08Call stays.
13:09Puntos para sa strong group.
13:12Good first ball.
13:13Manabat from the right.
13:14Easy tip.
13:15Lecauco was there.
13:17Bersoza with that pass.
13:20Oh, wow.
13:22Balita ng bola.
13:23Bersoza, back row.
13:26Manabat was there.
13:26Maraginot.
13:28Replay to Manabat.
13:30And she gets the point.
13:32A sign of a good setter.
13:34Always adjusting to all the balls that come her way.
13:40Raslan continues to score this time in front.
13:44A number of two attempts, back to back.
13:52Wrong read there.
13:57Still a good serve here.
14:01Babalik ng free ball.
14:04Maraginot.
14:06Nice read.
14:07Pineda.
14:08Goes crossbar.
14:10Her first point.
14:19Pineda.
14:21Oh, two points for Bang Pineda.
14:27Raslan.
14:36Don't forget to use hashtag PVL 2024 and our unofficial hashtag.
14:42Hafifi birthday.
14:44This birthday girl has scored five block points and four attack points.
14:50Jaja Maraginot.
14:52Setting up the serve.
14:55And she gets the ace.
