00:00 We have the original starters.
00:03 May tries again.
00:09 Walina sends it over.
00:13 Kamuy.
00:15 Ooh.
00:15 Nalunod.
00:16 Dawn will give it to Jove.
00:20 Picked up by Ivy.
00:23 Ka'al will try again.
00:24 The swipe is sent back.
00:29 Cess.
00:30 With a sharp serve.
00:32 A great target there for Cess Molina.
00:36 Zone 1.
00:37 Dropped in between Apienza and...
00:42 Could not be even better.
00:43 10-6.
00:45 That drops in.
00:47 Good target for Vanny.
00:49 So far in two games,
00:52 for the Signal HD Spikers.
00:54 Again, Signal continues to target
00:57 the corner pocket.
00:59 [crowd cheering]
01:01 Ivy from behind.
01:02 Dog up by Jove.
01:05 Drop ball.
01:07 Anticipated.
01:09 Jove getting that point.
01:10 A healthy Joe Maraginot.
01:13 There you go, Ka'al.
01:16 Going to the open once more down the line.
01:21 What a play.
01:28 Could not execute it perfectly,
01:29 but it looked really good right in front of our eyes, Aiel.
01:32 - Oh, that's true.
01:34 - One more time.
01:36 Cess will reverse.
01:37 Actually go back
01:38 to the pipe.
01:40 This is alive.
01:43 Playable.
01:44 Laika flies.
01:46 Rejected.
01:47 Joe with some defense.
01:49 Long rally alert.
01:52 Doria.
01:52 Unable to put it away.
01:54 Ka'al opens to Joe.
01:56 That's the set she likes.
01:58 Rally ongoing.
02:00 Another pipe attack.
02:02 Good defense by both teams.
02:05 Rolling ball.
02:06 Doria puts it away on the quick.
02:10 Rosalyn Doria, who averages 11 points,
02:14 ends the long rally.
02:16 - So far, I mean, both teams really hustling in the floor defense,
02:20 but that Kayuna-Doria connection...
02:22 [whistle]
02:23 - Jove.
02:28 Delivered to Jelle.
02:29 Cess Molina.
02:32 So, our score is 16-10.
02:37 Jelle.
02:40 Back set to Jove.
02:43 So, pretty tall lineup here in front
02:47 for next sled for blocking.
02:50 And yet!
02:52 [laughs]
02:53 - Gonzaga.
02:53 Gonzaga still squeezes in an attack.
02:57 - Well, let's see if a signal can convert here.
03:00 - Could serve.
03:01 Dawn with a perfect pass.
03:03 Molina.
03:04 Ivy taking it in the chest.
03:06 Ivy will send it back for a free ball.
03:09 Hinatid kay Dawn.
03:10 And Molina.
03:11 Pounds away!
03:13 Jove.
03:18 Kamuy was there.
03:23 Chance ball for the white and red.
03:24 Jelle opens up.
03:27 Jove with the long ball, gets the check.
03:29 High hands and the point.
03:31 Danny.
03:36 Good pass.
03:38 Ivy.
03:39 - Ooh!
03:39 - All starts from the first ball.
03:43 - Set also coming from Cal here.
03:46 - Yeah.
03:46 - Just the set that the Laksina won.
03:48 - She's not, she's not.
03:49 - Risk action against you.
03:51 - 23-20.
03:53 Competitive first set here.
03:55 A chase by an X-Led.
03:57 Oh!
03:58 Rose Vittoria swaps it in.
04:02 - You can't target the zone of Katindig,
04:06 although it was Molina who took the first ball.
04:08 Still in system.
04:10 And, I mean, that connection again and again.
04:13 - Really a lot of firepower in the signal team.
04:17 - Look at that pass again.
04:21 That drops in and Coach Taka agrees.
04:24 4-0.
04:26 Another hot start with HD Spikers.
04:29 Reverse to Laika.
04:32 Oh, that's a better one.
04:33 Four points.
04:35 It's a spike at the set brought in by Duncan.
04:38 Pasalubong ng bayan.
04:40 Nobody hold there.
04:41 - Earlier she told me that despite the numerous awards,
04:48 she makes it a point to set higher standards for herself
04:51 because at the end of the day,
04:53 it's not enough for her that they're perennial semis contenders.
04:56 She wants more.
04:57 - Rich hasn't been activated much here,
05:05 which is surprising knowing she is the second leading scorer
05:09 for X-Led, Riri.
05:12 Joe sends it over.
05:16 Chance ball.
05:16 A little disorganization on the next lead side, Parker.
05:19 Especially in offense.
05:21 - Yeah, again.
05:22 - For serving 11.
05:23 What a set.
05:27 What a set.
05:28 And again, perfect first ball.
05:31 Seven points for Gonzaga.
05:33 - Dawn had to extend her arms there,
05:35 but still a perfect receive and with a perfect set of Kayuna only.
05:41 Almost no blockers for Gonzaga.
05:43 - So,
05:45 Congcoso, sharp serve.
05:46 Good pass by Danny.
05:48 Dawn was there for the pickup.
05:50 Cal.
05:53 We'll go to Joe.
05:54 Congcoso with a dig.
05:58 Molina off the rebound.
06:00 - I know now, partner,
06:03 why the signal is so quiet.
06:05 - Ooh, head shot!
06:08 - A skull crusher from Riri to Laika.
06:14 - Quickness of the signal team.
06:16 - And that's what we've been highlighting.
06:19 Danny with a pickup.
06:21 Back to Joe.
06:22 Joe adjusts.
06:24 Joust.
06:25 Good target by Jel.
06:27 Good reaction by next lead.
06:30 Kayuna.
06:31 Oh!
06:32 Toria again!
06:34 - Now taking advantage of the smaller blocker in Jel Kayuna.
06:38 - That's a push, but she saw a hole.
06:44 - Toria is one of those
06:46 enbies that you easily can overlook.
06:49 And then all of a sudden,
06:51 you see 10 points, 11 points, 12 points.
06:53 And I say that about her even throughout her devour
06:58 when she was with NU.
06:59 - Jel reverses.
07:05 Cal was there, the hole.
07:09 - And ball!
07:11 - Oh!
07:12 - Down 6.
07:15 - Pagcoso joins in the fun.
07:20 Laika.
07:22 Jel solid on the defense.
07:25 What a handle for Ces.
07:28 Twisting her body.
07:29 - Great ball control there.
07:32 It's not easy to give that perfect set of a bump set.
07:37 Momentum earlier in the first set.
07:40 - Good point.
07:41 - That was a 21-15 in the first set.
07:43 Now it's 20-14.
07:45 Oh!
07:46 - Pagkahian!
07:49 - Next set serving, 15-21.
07:51 That's where we were in the first set
07:54 when Nexted made their chase.
07:56 Let's see if they can do it again.
07:59 Camille.
08:01 Ces with the dive.
08:03 Reversed.
08:04 And Claude Ces.
08:07 Nope!
08:08 Teams who are expected to challenge for the title.
08:11 Oh!
08:13 And Ces puts it away for her fifth point.
08:16 Oh, Acuña comes in now for Signal HD Spikers.
08:25 The Youth Brigade.
08:27 Villaheneral, of course, has moved on.
08:31 And has moved now.
08:32 Oh!
08:36 Pazas with some power there.
08:38 And that will be the second set for the Signal.
08:42 - The reason is because Cayuna
08:44 has different go-to players in every set.
08:47 - Dawn again was there for the up.
08:53 So was Dani.
08:55 Laika goes across.
08:58 Dani.
08:59 Camille to Crips.
09:05 And Riri saw that coming.
09:06 Pump set to Laika and to Adjasta.
09:13 Good adjustment also on the wrist to give them...
09:16 - Does create spaces in the blocking of Nexted.
09:20 But on the Nexted side,
09:21 we're not seeing a lot of activation from their middle.
09:24 - Yeah, that's what we said.
09:25 Crips, who is their second best.
09:27 Back to Vanni.
09:35 Dug up by May.
09:36 Open to Joe.
09:37 Flies in.
09:38 Gets the point.
09:40 Oh!
09:47 Set up for the third point for Jel.
09:51 - A variety of targets also for Jel Cayuna.
09:56 - Critch.
09:59 A take from Ces.
10:03 The roll from Chin.
10:05 Joe flies in.
10:06 Vanni goes airborne.
10:10 Airborne with the dig.
10:12 Set back by Cayuna.
10:17 - On Ivy's aura right now,
10:19 there is nothing that she cannot handle.
10:22 And all things seems pretty good on the side of the Nexted.
10:26 Now back to you, Boomen Ayala.
10:27 - Thank you very much, Skyla.
10:28 16-6 is our score here.
10:31 - Jel chooses Ces from behind.
10:39 Dug up by May.
10:40 Joe.
10:41 - Great dig.
10:44 - Dignity dig still there for the dig.
10:46 That's low for touches for Signo.
10:49 Manut Manglobnan.
10:55 Another hole identified by Joe.
10:59 Eight points for her.
11:00 17-8.
11:04 Vanni in the middle.
11:08 Ooh, confusion here on Signo.
11:12 Arvina back in.
11:15 Laika pulls.
11:17 Cayuna.
11:19 Good reaction by Chin.
11:22 Acuna getting into the swinging action.
11:25 Left hand for May Luna.
11:27 Cayuna will open to Vanni.
11:29 Too low.
11:31 But good enough for a point.
11:33 - Acuna laughing at that.
11:35 - Critch overreaches there.
11:39 But still scores.
11:42 - Depth of the bench of Signo that we've been talking about.
11:46 - Bumps it.
11:48 Dawn with the left hand.
11:53 She got there but could not execute.
11:56 - That's it.
11:56 - Si goes to Troncoso.
12:04 Nobody home.
12:05 But Arvina able to dig.
12:08 Dawn to Joe.
12:12 Back set.
12:15 Laika.
12:17 Dig pass to Troncoso.
12:20 Sent back.
12:21 Kasugud was there for coverage.
12:22 Troncoso again.
12:24 Macadili this time.
12:26 Fernandez on the right pin.
12:28 The tip.
12:31 Another long rally.
12:34 And Maragino trying to finish it.
12:36 But no.
12:37 Macadili Katindig keeps it alive.
12:40 Open to Joe.
12:42 Vanni from behind.
12:47 Joe decides otherwise.
12:51 And it is next leg.
12:53 Who wins this exhausting rally?
12:57 Misreceived.
13:03 Better first ball there for Vanni.
13:11 Jove.
13:13 May from behind.
13:17 5-0 run.
13:21 Fernandez from behind.
13:22 Maragino from the left pin.
13:27 Back to her.
13:29 She reloads.
13:30 Dawn.
13:31 Sends it to the net.
13:33 That's a 6-0 run.
13:35 Overpass.
13:40 Kamui to Joe.
13:43 And it's a 6-0 run.
13:48 Troncoso.
13:49 Dawn to Vanni.
13:53 May.
13:57 Jelle with a dig.
14:00 Jove sends it over.
14:02 Out of system for Signal.
14:04 And they continue to buckle.
14:08 Consistent in that service line.
14:11 And Jove Maragino putting in the points for next leg.
14:14 Another good serve, partner.
14:16 Troncoso.
14:19 Jove.
14:19 Jove.
14:21 Send back.
14:23 Showing some resilience in this game after that big lead of Signal.
14:28 Oh, a down 13.
14:30 And when you're down 13, you can just give up to your cheerleader.
14:35 Oh!
14:36 Miscommunication here between Dawn and Vanni.
14:40 Troncoso.
14:48 Oh, is that a touch?
14:49 It's a touch.
14:50 And they're going to challenge.
14:54 Are they going to challenge?
