00:00 All sorts of problems today.
00:02 They gotta establish that confidence as well early on.
00:05 A lot of big names here for the Chargers.
00:08 And speaking of a big name, of course, we have Dindin Santiago competing in this match as well.
00:14 That is one person.
00:16 Although we know she has been the contestant.
00:19 Of course, someone we know very, very well.
00:21 Ipak serving.
00:27 And Esther Madrigal making it look so easy.
00:30 It's tough to see.
00:31 Marzan against Madrigal with a couple of jousts there.
00:36 And they're showing it today.
00:38 They look like they're pretty well matched.
00:40 Again, you know, we have been saying it the whole coverage that they will not finish strong.
00:47 There is still that chance, a very slim chance to make it to the semifinals.
00:52 But right now, it's about enjoying the game.
00:54 And Piti Sharma, I'm pretty sure, is enjoying herself here.
00:58 That's a big boost for one of the fan favorites.
01:01 Every time they call out her name.
01:03 The cheers get louder.
01:05 We have three actually service errors for Akari and two for Galleries.
01:10 Soltanes goes for the drop.
01:15 Well, if this is the weakness of Akari, the weakness of Galleries.
01:22 So, gets one back, drops it right there.
01:25 So, the adjustments have to be made.
01:27 That's why they're so well matched.
01:28 That was a 5-0 run by Akari.
01:31 Akari stepping on the gas in the first set.
01:34 Paran, dug up by Raagas.
01:37 Bump set, Soltanes is waiting.
01:40 Mnas to Ipak.
01:44 Santiago Manabat.
01:49 Smart play, being aggressive.
01:52 This point, they want to end it.
01:54 They're so focused, they shifted the gear up a notch.
01:59 But you know, France Ronquillo, we talked about her.
02:03 Lots of potential, lots of talent.
02:05 Great to see her fitting in well with Coach Lerma's system.
02:09 Yeah, and she's all of what, 24?
02:11 24 years old.
02:13 Take a look at this replay.
02:15 Yeah, Manabat making up for that previous...
02:19 It's better late than never.
02:20 You saw Fifi Sharma, she stuck with it, and she just stretched for it.
02:24 We can't deny the fact that Fifi does have long limbs,
02:27 so it makes things a little bit easier for her in the scoring party.
02:32 This spike of the set is brought to you by Duncan.
02:35 More sets.
02:37 Fifi with a quick one!
02:39 Down low for Fifi Sharma.
02:42 Nice to see between Cobb and Sharma, look at that!
02:46 What a beautiful play, executed so flawlessly.
02:50 Here comes Michelle Cobb.
02:53 Ronquillo out of system play.
02:59 Yeah, Ezra Magligal.
03:10 We love an honest queen.
03:12 Two-point lead for Akari.
03:14 I was busy looking at the San Diego Manabat saying,
03:16 "No, I didn't touch it!"
03:18 Challenge, and then later, delayed reaction.
03:21 We head on over to our second technical timeout.
03:24 The Chargers are in the lead.
03:26 The high risers, Paran serving.
03:32 Soltones!
03:36 More power this time, still works.
03:39 What is she going to do?
03:41 And we saw in the first set, Noreen,
03:44 she was having problems with her attacking, but right now...
03:47 What's Akari at set point?
03:50 A bombita.
03:53 A big...
03:54 Raagas!
03:57 That's outside, and that is it for our second set.
04:03 Akari Chargers, take a look at this.
04:08 Great play to end the first set for the Chargers.
04:12 Galleries draw first blood in the third set.
04:15 Paran serving as Cobb will find Madrigal.
04:19 They're going to chase it!
04:21 Unsuccessful chase point.
04:23 At the start.
04:24 Going to be another great start for both our teams.
04:28 Soltones.
04:31 Good pass.
04:33 Ipak.
04:37 Great blocking from Akari Ronquillo.
04:40 Will send it over.
04:41 A chance here for the Chargers.
04:43 Cobb, one-hand set to Dindin.
04:45 It's good!
04:46 Galleries still there.
04:48 That middle off-speed drops, and again, easy point.
04:52 Very quick turnaround.
04:54 Cobb.
04:58 Wow.
04:59 Dindin.
05:00 With an attack from Dindin.
05:03 Let's take a look at this.
05:06 Yeah, just smart hitting by Santiago Manabat going down.
05:09 This is the first deadlock that we're having in the third set.
05:12 Could be a sign of good things to come for Galleries.
05:15 Cobb to Dindin.
05:18 You know where to find her.
05:21 And the spike of the set is brought to you by...
05:24 You cannot go wrong with this front line.
05:26 And right now, Akari.
05:28 7-0 run for them.
05:30 Hoping to finish this game.
05:34 What will Galleries do?
05:36 Chance for Akari.
05:37 Cobb.
05:39 To Faith!
05:40 Drops the hammer.
05:43 In addition to Faith, to spare us in this rotation.
