00:00 You can see that we have a lot of all ages, you know, the crowd that we see right now.
00:05 So even kids and grandparents are all here.
00:09 Enjoying that first point, having played two sets.
00:13 Well, there is a top scorer of Chocomucho in the whole conference,
00:18 Cici Rondina, number two in the league with 154 coming into this matchup.
00:23 That's dug up by Cici.
00:25 Issa Molde taking it over and she scores.
00:29 With Harvey Casada. So congratulations, Chomsy.
00:32 We know Migs and Ivy, we know that these days, it's all about low-key.
00:36 And even Chomsy wanted this to be low-key, but she gave me the green signal.
00:40 A very comfortable lead.
00:42 Three serving four, sharp serve, Bonsai with the receive.
00:45 And here's Issa Molde sending that ball through.
00:48 And again, it's chaos on the other end for SGA.
00:51 That's the beauty of it, you know, when you get that set that you like.
00:56 Oh, nice serve, Issa Molde with an ace.
00:59 What a start for her.
01:01 And you know, speaking of progress, speaking of establishing cultures,
01:06 even coach Jesse Lopez told me that it took six months for Chocomucho
01:10 to actually get acclimated into this system and this culture of coach Dante Elinsonurin.
01:16 And now, they're one of the best in the league as Cici Rondina continues to score.
01:21 In terms of hype.
01:24 Not the best of receives.
01:26 Romero gives it up to Dolly, who sends it through.
01:29 Bonsai digs it up.
01:30 Alba, Cici again.
01:32 That's too easy.
01:35 That was like a beach volleyball throwback for us.
01:38 Service inside.
01:40 Bonsai receives, Alba, back to the left.
01:43 Dubino couldn't score.
01:45 Up to the sky.
01:46 Now it's Verzosa, cross court.
01:48 Nice dig by Thang.
01:50 Rondina again.
01:51 Espinosa couldn't dig it up perfectly.
01:57 Now there's that short serve by Cici.
01:59 Scramble forced.
02:01 Chance ball combination.
02:03 Royce to Dubino.
02:09 15 serving 8.
02:11 One away from the second technical timeout.
02:14 And it is a service ace for Cheri Nunag, 16 to 8.
02:19 She's done this before.
02:21 Served as a magic bunot for coach Onyok.
02:24 Tip by Issa.
02:26 Again, we haven't seen much power from her so far.
02:29 But that's all that she needs.
02:31 Maddy Madayag, blocked.
02:34 Let's take a look.
02:38 As it was.
02:40 Suras land with a block.
02:42 So it's an attack point and a block point so far for Sue.
02:45 Sharp serve.
02:46 And here's Issa Molde.
02:48 Blocked again.
02:49 Wow.
02:50 The net defense is now getting better and better for HGA.
02:53 Before this game told me that she has a personal goal of trying to block Cici Rondina.
02:58 So now she has one up on Issa Molde.
03:02 Issa Molde.
03:03 Five points so far to lead the way for Choco Mucho.
03:07 Raslan going cross.
03:09 Dug up by Issa.
03:10 That's a chase by Thang.
03:12 And here's Dubino giving up a free ball.
03:15 But, again, onto the slide.
03:18 It almost worked.
03:19 Back row for Royce.
03:21 Off the block.
03:27 Onofre serves.
03:29 With the help of the net, it's almost an ace.
03:31 Rondina.
03:32 It's just a free ball.
03:33 You know it.
03:39 That's after starting in set number two and coming off the bench in set three.
03:43 Attack from the middle.
03:45 Nice block.
03:46 One more time.
03:47 Verzosa.
03:49 Now a good chance to counter.
03:51 Nunag setting it to the back.
03:53 Rebleza to Verzosa.
03:55 Yes.
03:56 A hole at the back row.
03:59 Let's take a look at that attack from Verzosa.
04:02 Flying in.
04:04 Targeting that cross court.
04:08 Let's see if they can pull off a miracle.
04:10 Rondina receives.
04:13 Great timing at the net.
04:15 Hakulan couldn't get it through.
04:17 Verzosa.
04:18 Yes.
04:22 The fight is there.
04:24 And you can see a bit of a shift in their body language.
04:27 Alba on the one-two.
04:28 Read perfectly by Jess.
04:30 Verzosa once more.
04:32 Dug up by Dubino.
04:33 Molde.
04:34 Back to Sisi.
04:35 And that drops.
04:41 24 serving 16.
04:44 Verzosa.
04:45 Wow.
04:46 Good angle by Verzosa.
04:50 Maximize this part of their rotation.
04:52 They're down by seven.
04:54 Alba.
04:55 Sisi.
04:56 Blocked.
04:57 Coverage was there.
04:58 Ponce on to Royce.
05:00 Got a hand.
05:01 And that's it for set number one.
05:04 And that's it for set number two.
05:07 Service inside for her.
05:09 That's her former teammate, Meagan Mendres, who now attacks
05:12 against two blockers.
05:14 Almost a point.
05:15 Counter by Sue.
05:16 Ball up by Dina.
05:18 That was actually by a teammate.
05:20 Now here's a chance for SGA.
05:23 Raslan.
05:24 Got a hand.
05:25 Counter.
05:26 Meagan Mendres.
05:28 Ball.
05:29 Still saved.
05:30 Nice rally.
05:33 And she takes this.
05:34 A miscue for Chocomucho.
05:36 Hitting that ball.
05:37 We may not be able to see that here in the replay.
05:41 There's the glance.
05:43 There was a bit of movement.
05:45 Five all.
05:46 She has six points to her name.
05:49 Ball up by Melanie Romero.
05:51 And here's Raslan going cross.
05:53 Dug up by Thang.
05:55 Dina.
05:56 Back row for Sisi.
05:57 Oh, my goodness.
05:58 Joy Onofre.
06:00 And just a blizzard before this game.
06:03 What makes Sisi so hard to stop?
06:05 And they said oh, so many things about her.
06:08 As Mike Ortiz scores for Chocomucho.
06:11 But back to Sisi Rondina.
06:13 Six serving seven.
06:14 Joy Onofre.
06:15 Two points to her name.
06:16 Sharp serve.
06:18 The push to Meagan.
06:20 Ball up by Onofre.
06:22 Raslan.
06:23 Off speed.
06:24 Good save.
06:25 Back row.
06:26 Sisi explodes and scores again.
06:29 Versus strong group.
06:31 Andres with the serve inside.
06:33 Back set to the opposite.
06:35 Nice dig by Royce.
06:36 And here's Sisi again.
06:38 [CHEERING]
06:41 Santa Maria sends it through.
06:44 Chance ball.
06:45 They go to Sisi.
06:46 Pushing that ball through.
06:47 And again, there's a hole.
06:49 [CHEERING]
06:51 All those open areas.
06:54 Not the best of receives.
06:56 Rizosa challenged that net.
06:58 Dina Wong.
06:59 Sisi again.
07:00 Coverage a bit late.
07:03 And look at the celebration on the side of SGA with that block.
07:07 That's a good sign.
07:09 And this is actually one of the things that can help SGA.
07:13 And that's the defense at the net.
07:15 Oops.
07:16 Even Coach Dante was laughing for a bit, which is not the usual sight.
07:19 But you take it if you're Chocomucho.
07:23 Tobino again.
07:24 Now that goes through.
07:25 [CHEERING]
07:28 Assistant coach for Strong Group Athletics.
07:32 Oh, a misreceive.
07:33 That's an ace for Sisi Rondina.
07:35 [CHEERING]
07:39 They did mention they still have a nice cushion.
07:42 Short serve.
07:43 Tough save there for Thong Phon Sen.
07:45 And the ball won't go over anymore.
07:48 Scoring the point off of those tips.
07:52 18 to 12 now.
07:53 Chunks back sets.
07:56 There's the coverage.
07:58 This time they go to Raslan.
07:59 Straight to Sisi.
08:01 Wong.
08:02 Open.
08:03 Me-an.
08:04 Yes, ma'am.
08:05 [CHEERING]
08:08 She was a leading scorer of UE back in her day.
08:11 After all, she still is going through some minor injuries.
08:15 As now we just got to see four touches on the side of SGA.
08:19 We have a timeout.
08:20 Sherry Nunag.
08:23 Service in.
08:25 Kaole.
08:26 On to Raslan.
08:27 Nice hit.
08:29 Oh, not the best of second balls.
08:32 A chance for SGA.
08:35 They go back to Su.
08:36 Down the line target.
08:37 And that makes it to the line.
08:42 22-15 now.
08:43 Me-an Mendrez.
08:45 Ball up by Dolly.
08:47 Back set.
08:48 Su.
08:49 Locked.
08:50 And Sisi made it look so easy.
08:53 Dina in this game.
08:57 Attack from the middle.
08:58 That didn't work.
09:00 Me-an sending it through.
09:03 Raslan against two blockers.
09:05 Good recognition by Dina.
09:07 And that's Sisi Rondina who couldn't score.
09:10 Ponce still there.
09:13 Oh, Rebleza putting it up.
09:15 And here's Dolly from the back.
09:18 Sisi Rondina.
09:19 Cross score.
09:22 Great sportsmanship.
09:24 For a proper approach.
09:26 You have to expect a strong hit.
09:28 A literal cherry bomb.
09:30 24-15.
09:31 Nine set points.
09:32 Dina.
09:34 Almost scored.
09:35 Chance ball.
09:37 This time they go to the slide.
09:39 And there's the finisher.
09:40 My God.
09:44 But they are enjoying.
09:46 And that's what's important.
09:48 There you go.
09:50 Tubino sends it to the back.
09:51 Ka-ole.
09:52 Back set.
09:53 Shika is back.
09:54 Good to see her.
09:56 And now it's Sisi Rondina against two blockers.
10:00 She prevails.
10:03 The defenders or the blockers on the side of SGA will not be able to keep the ball alive.
10:08 So, pumapasok yung bola sa loob.
10:10 So that means there's this distance from the blocker and the net.
10:15 But Tubino has eight points.
10:18 As her number one supporter in terms of attacking.
10:22 Regina Rocha.
10:23 First appearance.
10:24 First attack.
10:25 First point.
10:29 Rizosa with the receive.
10:30 And here's Espinoza.
10:32 Cross court.
10:33 No kill.
10:35 Counter.
10:36 Tubino.
10:37 Two blockers.
10:38 No problem.
10:42 Absolutely no stress at all for him in this game so far.
10:47 Two serving six.
10:48 Rocha receives.
10:49 Not the best there.
10:52 Espinoza with the dig.
10:53 Ka-ole.
10:54 To her long time teammate.
10:56 And that's off of Regina.
11:00 Apparently.
11:05 Push by Micah.
11:06 Likauko setting it left.
11:08 Suraslan.
11:09 Nice hit.
11:10 That was a good down the line hit by Raslan.
11:17 Ball up and in.
11:18 Melanie receives.
11:20 Onofre.
11:22 Good defense there by Royce.
11:23 Rocha sending it through.
11:25 Ka-ole.
11:26 Back set.
11:27 Shika.
11:28 Cross court.
11:29 Pretty sharp.
11:30 It's out.
11:31 Have a good view of that.
11:32 He was nearer compared to the linesman.
11:35 Back set.
11:36 Slide.
11:37 Micah.
11:38 That was a good defense.
11:40 Number three for her.
11:43 Coach Onyok reminds her.
11:48 Hopefully in the third set they will be able to catch up a bit
11:52 more and be sharper in terms of reception.
11:55 It's what coach Onyok wants and he hopes he gets.
11:59 The support is brought to you by the Filipinos live app.
12:03 Back to you.
12:04 Ka-ole.
12:05 Back set.
12:08 There's a hole at the defense of Chocomucho.
12:12 Dina Wong had a smile.
12:14 She knows about that.
12:15 She does it herself.
12:17 There's the push on to Tubino.
12:19 No more save for Suraslan.
12:23 It looked pretty weird to me because she usually wears green.
12:29 Espinosa.
12:30 Back set to Chica.
12:35 That drops.
12:39 Haukulan sending that ball in.
12:42 Attack from the middle.
12:44 Good net defense by strong group.
12:47 They send it back to Espinosa.
12:49 Dina putting it up.
12:51 Dina back set.
12:52 Not much power.
12:54 Ka-ole to the open.
12:56 That's Dolly Verzosa.
12:58 Dug up by Sisi.
13:00 Regine.
13:01 Great approach.
13:03 Off the block.
13:06 Madi Madiag.
13:08 Melanie receives.
13:10 And this is a chance ball.
13:12 A lot of time.
13:13 They go to Regine.
13:15 Against the blockers.
13:16 She scores.
13:20 Talking about Regina Rocha.
13:23 19-11.
13:24 Received by Sue.
13:26 Combination.
13:28 Dolly Verzosa.
13:30 There's a chase but not enough.
13:32 By Regina Rocha.
13:35 Dolly has 12 points to lead the way for SGA.
13:38 As per usual.
13:40 Dina.
13:43 That set was not too hard for Dina Wong.
13:47 She was just right there in the middle.
13:50 After scoring all of her five in the opening set.
13:54 Not too happy with that dig.
13:59 Nikki Baldizzanzo.
14:04 Received by Bia.
14:06 Gem.
14:07 Combination.
14:08 Sisi.
14:09 Ball up by Dolly.
14:10 Chums on to Shika.
14:13 Nice dig.
14:15 Isamolde.
14:16 Yes.
14:21 By Cortez.
14:24 Kaole on to Susan Raslan.
14:27 That's a back row hit for Regina Rocha.
14:30 And the counter comes from Sue.
14:33 Two blockers and a miscue.
14:36 Raslan still keeps SGA here in the game.
14:42 Nice receive.
14:44 There's the set.
14:45 Push.
14:47 Dolly Verzosa.
14:48 Blocked.
14:49 And that's it.
14:51 Chocobucha winning in double figures once more.
14:54 25-15.
