00:00You know, he has this formidable lineup, they will be put to the test against the Red Lions today.
00:07Harvey Bagsanhan drains it from long distance.
00:10As you can see a while ago, they had a hard show with Gortiza.
00:13So they know that anytime soon, Gortiza can explode.
00:17So they had to hard show it.
00:18I saw the mismatch there.
00:21Axel Durmal.
00:23Harvey all day.
00:24Third try.
00:25Yes!
00:26Bagsanhan with his second triple in the first.
00:31Good start for Bagsanhan.
00:33Six points with two out of three field goals.
00:36That's a nice start for Harvey.
00:37Again, ten points against Piniyog.
00:41But it's good to see him find the touch early on.
00:45Gonzalez.
00:47Aliman.
00:49This guy also has the range.
00:50Andrada with the short stab.
00:55Wait, we have a timeout here.
00:58It is nine to seven.
00:59Almost four minutes gone.
01:00Abate, the EAC.
01:02Axel Durmal.
01:04Stops and waits.
01:05Durmal is still quiet.
01:06But it's still early.
01:09Gortiza.
01:10Step back.
01:11Three.
01:12Yes!
01:13Tough shot for Gortiza.
01:16And the EAC doubles up on the Salgado Red Lions.
01:20Fourteen to seven.
01:22Don't mismatch.
01:24Step back jumper this time.
01:27He's feeling it.
01:29Gortiza.
01:31With a couple of baskets for EAC.
01:33That will stretch their lead to nine.
01:35Sixteen to seven.
01:37But take note.
01:38Gortiza's shots are not easy.
01:40Full of off-balance.
01:43Step back.
01:45Here's Estacio.
01:47Pini.
01:48Pulling the trigger.
01:50Doesn't get it.
01:52Andrada offensive for Estacio.
01:54Puno shortstop.
01:55Might save.
01:58Zahonya steps into it.
02:00And finally breaks the dry spell for Sanda.
02:03First basket for Zahonya.
02:05It's probably going to go on and on.
02:08Kyle is really tough.
02:12He's got a strong body.
02:13Off the net.
02:14Connects.
02:15The crowd is still quiet outside.
02:20That has become the main weapon for the generals.
02:24That time.
02:27Ochavo.
02:28Estacio attacks.
02:29Drop off.
02:30Loristo.
02:31Yes!
02:33Jello Loristo!
02:34Good decision for Ochavo.
02:35Not forcing that one.
02:36And finding.
02:38Jello Loristo.
02:40Has been paying off.
02:41Yeah, has been paying off.
02:43Right?
02:44They really studied.
02:45And they knew what their game plan would be.
02:48For some better reds.
02:49They're just executing here.
02:51In the first half.
02:53Ochavo.
02:54It's hard for him.
02:55He forced that shot.
02:56That's the weapon.
02:58Somehow.
02:59Putting it in.
03:00Kyle Ochavo.
03:01And the challenges for him.
03:02Andrade is really big.
03:05You have to see it again.
03:07In the land of the giants.
03:0925-16.
03:10The A.C.
03:11Maintaining their lead.
03:14Emantagle.
03:17Nico Quenal is really close.
03:19It's nice to watch the offense of the A.C.
03:22Here.
03:23Ochavo making the catch.
03:24Over.
03:26Halbuena.
03:28And Andrade at that time.
03:30You can see that.
03:316'5".
03:32And 6'6".
03:33Going at the 5'5".
03:34Guard.
03:35That's his strength.
03:37He's trying to get in.
03:38James Payoseng collects.
03:40Payoseng.
03:42Taken away by Ochavo.
03:43Forward pass.
03:44And it is.
03:45Octana.
03:46For the touchdown.
03:47Biggest lead.
03:49For E.A.C.
03:5027-16.
03:52Double.
03:53Digit advantage for the first time.
03:55For the generals as well.
03:57Good patience.
03:58Didn't force that one.
04:00Royo.
04:02Payoseng pulls the trigger.
04:03Short.
04:04Draws air.
04:05Andrade follows it up.
04:06On the reverse.
04:11Royo.
04:13Kick out.
04:14Andrade.
04:15Can this be his first three?
04:16Finally.
04:17For Eufgen.
04:21Octana.
04:23Lucero.
04:25Got away.
04:27With steps.
04:28And he finds Pogsaman inside.
04:31Beautiful play by Lucero.
04:34So about a 10 second difference between the shot and the game clock.
04:40Doromal steps into it.
04:42His jumper.
04:44Wow.
04:47Big triple for Axel here at the back.
04:50For the first half.
04:51Axel Doromal now.
04:52He's the one who will lead for the generals.
04:55Flarescreen for Gortiza.
04:57Axel.
04:59Doromal is now in a hard shot.
05:01Luciano.
05:03Oh.
05:04That's his second triple of the game.
05:08Good shot for Luciano.
05:09The confidence.
05:11Even though he has someone in front of him.
05:15JC.
05:17Now with 7 points.
05:21Tagli.
05:22Off the screen.
05:24Their shooters are really looking for a better shot.
05:27Staggered screens for Tagli.
05:29Now Richie Kalimag is open.
05:30He just missed it.
05:32Sanpedra.
05:33He has his running.
05:34Is now 2 out of 14 from long range.
05:37Oh what a pass.
05:38Harvey Pogsaman inside.
05:40Pounded.
05:41Plus the foul.
05:44Good find.
05:46And good finish for Pogsaman.
05:47He may not be scoring.
05:49But Doromal is setting up his teammates very well.
05:52First assist was to Luciano.
05:54Next one is for Harvey Pogsaman inside.
05:57As I said earlier.
05:59If you can't shoot.
06:01You can find a way.
06:03And they shouldn't settle for outside shots.
06:05And should attack the rim.
06:07No need for triples right away.
06:09That's why he hopes that the team hustles.
06:11And gets rebounds for the second half of the game.
06:13Back to the panel.
06:15Thank you so much.
06:16Thank you so much.
06:18That's what they're hoping to happen.
06:20But it hasn't translated so far.
06:23Two games with losing skids.
06:25So far losing against Benio de Mapua in the past two.
06:28Another one.
06:29One more time.
06:30And Gortiza will not miss twice.
06:36It's called for excessive steps.
06:40Except this one out.
06:42Gortiza with a retake.
06:44Retake.
06:47Coach Gerson.
06:49But sometimes it helps.
06:51Once you missed it.
06:54Doromal will take.
06:56Left it short.
06:57Loristo collects the offensive board.
06:59And it's Luciano from the corner.
07:01Luciano knocks it down.
07:03Everybody's going in for the AC.
07:06What a game today.
07:08Gonzalez.
07:10Still nothing.
07:12Paiyosing with the follow up.
07:14Good thing Paiyosing was there to get that O-Ram.
07:16And getting that end one.
07:18Look at this.
07:19JC Luciano.
07:21Struggles in their first three games.
07:23And now.
07:25Has broken out of this match.
07:28I love the reaction of Coach Gerson.
07:32Animated.
07:34Crestacio.
07:37Sahoy.
07:38Has Luciano on him.
07:39He likes that ISO.
07:40But he gave it up.
07:42Puno.
07:43Good pump fake.
07:44Patient move inside by Jumon Puno.
07:47If they need a confidence booster.
07:49They need to get it from Jumon Puno.
07:54But EAC.
07:55Has established a.
07:58Humongous lead.
07:59Luciano third.
08:01Axel.
08:03And finally.
08:04Axel Doromal hitting a three.
08:09Doromal now with six points.
08:12And this might be the opportunity for him.
08:14To find his groove.
08:16Finally.
08:19Songkuya.
08:22Way off.
08:24Oh it goes to Gortiza.
08:25Doesn't have the numbers.
08:27But he will attack.
08:29No numbers there.
08:34Gortiza consciously finding Axel Doromal.
08:40But I got to commend Axel Doromal.
08:42Because even if he's salty.
08:44He's been here for a few months.
08:45He doesn't lose confidence.
08:47And you see it all in the reaction.
08:51Of course the team will win.
08:53They really want to get power.
08:55Maybe they're hungry here.
08:57This game.
08:59Dreaming of hunger.
09:02Pressuring the backcourt.
09:04They're not stopping.
09:06And again EAC doubling up on Sunbed at 58-20.
09:11I love this matchup over here.
09:13Royo and Machabo.
09:14Killing it.
09:16I'll repeat the point guard position.
09:17Estacio.
09:19Against Bagay.
09:21Puno.
09:22Falls down.
09:24Had to work with.
09:25And he needs to create.
09:27Estacio sends it out.
09:28One second for Royo.
09:30Oh.
09:32Beating the horn was MJ Royo.
09:37But nonetheless he was shooting it very well.
09:41Taito Tachibanao.
09:44Off the screen.
09:46It's another connection.
09:48Rico Queralt.
09:49Rico Queralt.
09:50The designated sniper of EAC.
09:53Knocks to the left.
09:55Taito Tachibanao.
09:58Big pocket.
10:00Lucero.
10:02Gets away from the nose.
10:05Thank you Yan.
10:06Well so far so good.
10:08Thank you Yan.
10:09Well so far.
10:11EAC is winning.
10:13But if you're Sunbeda.
10:14Right.
10:15Triple effort.
10:16Quadruple effort.
10:18They're in desperate times now.
10:19Because they're down.
10:23In the driver's seat.
10:26Luciano with two seconds left.
10:28Oh.
10:29JC.
10:31He's playing really well.
10:32He's playing really well.
10:35Four out of four from long distance.
10:42Face up three.
10:44By JC Luciano.
10:45Right over AJ Royo.
10:48And the celebration ensues.
10:52Enjoy that shot.
10:55Good try.
10:57Four and a half to go.
10:59AJ Royo with a left hand.
11:01Lost the foul.
11:03Smallest guy in the court.
11:05Driving to the basket and won.
11:08And this is why.
11:10He has very extended minutes.
11:12He can get them that energy.
11:14Yeah.
11:16Jump and recharge in this game.
11:18Yes.
11:19Yes, he can.
11:22It's hard to say.
11:25Kalimag.
11:27Counted and won.
11:28For Richie Kalimag.
11:30And Zanbetta is getting it.
11:32Yeah.
11:33With only a little time going by, Prince.
11:37He used that.
11:38He used that as a momentum.
11:39To continue his run.
11:44So, Richie will add.
11:46Left it short.
11:52Quickly.
11:54It is down to 14.
11:5635 to go.
11:58And then it's a steal.
12:00Here we go.
12:02Just have to hold the ball.
12:0410 seconds remaining.
12:06That's it.
12:08History.
12:11Four seconds.
12:15And it is history for the EAZ Generals.
12:19They beat the Zanbetta Red Lions for the first time.
12:23In NCAA Basketball.
12:29And they win it.
12:31In a very convincing way.
12:34Dominant fashion.
12:3668 to 55.
12:38Very impressive win for EAZ.
12:40Especially their opponent.
12:42Defending champion, Zanbetta.
12:44And it wasn't just a game.
12:46They were leading the whole game.
12:48They were dominating the game.
12:49Their biggest lead was 29 big points.
12:53In the third quarter.
12:55It was 58 to 29.
12:57And pretty much since their fast start,
13:00they never looked back.
13:02Yes.
13:04The advantage of Zanbetta in our game was 2-0.
13:07That's it.
13:09After that, it was all EAZ.
