00:00 Semifinals berth.
00:02 Fourth spot, the hotly contested spot.
00:04 Macandili foils Van Ziggle.
00:08 First tap.
00:10 Dunn sends it to the back row.
00:11 Sabete is right there.
00:13 Palma.
00:14 And the first dive by Macandili.
00:18 It is currently 3-1.
00:20 Petrogas with the early lead.
00:23 Gantler.
00:24 Chang.
00:27 Back row strike by Sabete.
00:32 That is foiled and Van Ziggle all over Gonzaga there.
00:36 Easily read.
00:37 Gonzaga and that one solid block coming from Van Ziggle.
00:41 Here's Chang.
00:46 Gantler.
00:47 Cayuna.
00:48 Gonzaga.
00:49 Foiled again.
00:50 Van Ziggle has her number.
00:53 Did her homework.
00:54 Take a look at this one man block against Gonzaga.
00:58 You know Van Ziggle comes from a very successful US program
01:04 in the University of Hawaii.
01:05 You know in their campus, I've been able to stay there
01:07 for some time.
01:09 They have one section of their bookstore.
01:11 It's nothing but volleyball stuff.
01:13 Everything you want about volleyball.
01:15 Books, ball, attire, t-shirts.
01:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:21 Goes to show why Van Ziggle plays the way she does.
01:25 Such a progressive, successful program.
01:28 Van Ziggle.
01:29 Gonzaga trying to meet her toe to toe.
01:31 It's still 6 to 1.
01:32 First long rally of the match.
01:34 Chang reverses.
01:37 Crash to the floor by Gonzaga.
01:40 Molina.
01:40 Still in play.
01:45 Macandili tried her best, but it won't work.
01:49 They are getting the first touches,
01:51 but there's no support in the second touch.
01:54 And so far, Petragas-Angels are winning.
01:57 Checking, of course, from the CSB program.
02:03 College of St. Benilde.
02:04 Uh-oh.
02:06 That almost died.
02:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:08 Oh.
02:09 Doria.
02:14 Chang.
02:14 Chang and you.
02:20 Macandili.
02:21 Nice dig.
02:22 Gonzaga punches it through.
02:25 [INAUDIBLE]
02:27 Spiker to set.
02:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:30 This is what Gonzaga has been trying to do.
02:33 Finally.
02:34 Van Ziggle serve.
02:41 Cayuna checks the horizon.
02:43 Gonzaga knocks it down with a softball stab.
02:48 Switching things up.
02:50 Going down the line this time.
02:53 The advantage of that space between Antena and--
02:59 First ace by Sabete.
03:02 On to No.
03:03 Gandler rejected Molina.
03:06 Sends it airborne to the back row.
03:09 We go.
03:11 Gentle touch into the hole.
03:12 [INAUDIBLE]
03:15 Petragas is getting a rebound.
03:18 They're getting a touch of it.
03:20 Meanwhile, Petragas, a lot of team attacks coming from them.
03:24 Another one from-- and also, they
03:26 know what is at stake in this game.
03:28 The more that they are pressured to get the win, but so far,
03:32 they're not able to execute their game plan.
03:34 Galdonis got to it.
03:38 Van Ziggle.
03:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:43 Gandler with a whip.
03:46 Battling the net.
03:47 Acuna is in the game for the first time.
03:50 Drop message by Gonzaga.
03:52 Second longest rally in progress.
03:55 To the back row.
03:56 Remy has a long arm for it.
03:58 Van Ziggle.
04:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:01 No way.
04:02 Molina creates a scramble.
04:05 What a play.
04:06 What a point by Signal.
04:07 [INAUDIBLE]
04:09 But Don [INAUDIBLE]
04:12 really reliable in the floor defense.
04:15 And Signal has been trying to put the load--
04:18 Almost full circle as Cheng is again serving.
04:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:24 This works.
04:27 And they're able to activate the medals.
04:30 It's like an automatic point for them.
04:31 And the woman who just scored the point, who
04:33 used to play for NU, Jackie Acuna,
04:36 is now in the service row.
04:37 That's foiled.
04:43 Cheng checks the other side.
04:45 Daldonis, Cayuna, and company keep it in play.
04:50 Cheng puts it up.
04:52 Morente is on the floor for the first time.
04:55 Short shot.
04:55 From Cosso, Molina checked her landing.
05:03 Hey, the longest rally so far.
05:06 [CHEERING]
05:09 And it's out.
05:16 Exciting long rally.
05:18 Both teams giving it their utmost there.
05:20 Brilliant on the floor defense of both teams.
05:24 But good luck there coming from Gonzaga and Meneses.
05:28 Petragas could not--
05:30 --Matinayo and for San Miguel.
05:31 Never made it to the PBA.
05:32 Decided to make it a career in finance.
05:38 Oh!
05:40 Janela just a half foot away.
05:42 Had a lot of room for the cross court attack.
05:48 Only one blocker in front of her.
05:50 I mean, Janela Cheng doing--
05:51 Macandili, C. Wow.
05:59 The blocking of Petragas of the air time.
06:03 We are at set point to get to it.
06:05 In the meantime, says Molina, the captain.
06:08 [CHEERING]
06:10 He's saying, I think I chinked her.
06:13 You know, you're absolutely correct about Signal
06:19 needing to find their tempo, their rhythm.
06:24 So far, Petragas escaping with everything it wants to do.
06:28 Macandili may have lost her footing there, the ball.
06:31 Van Sickle continues to outsmart the defense of--
06:36 --the corner pocket there.
06:39 Sabete will serve.
06:41 2 to nothing in favor of Petra.
06:43 Make that 3 to nothing.
06:44 Yes, Van Sickle knocks that in.
06:47 Sam Corrales.
06:48 --for the Signal HV Spikers.
06:51 Picked up with one hand on the ground.
06:53 Cayuna keeps it very much in play.
06:55 Gonzaga, southpaw, stabbed, juggled.
07:00 Will they challenge?
07:01 No challenge.
07:02 Nothing to challenge there.
07:06 Van Sickle denies.
07:08 Free point.
07:13 Yeah, yeah.
07:13 Free point, sorry.
07:14 It's now a 7 to 5 second set.
07:18 I think she took too long.
07:23 Mhm.
07:24 Nice block by Sabete.
07:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:39 Jonah.
07:40 Ah, Meneses don't get her started.
07:43 Last four points have been all signal.
07:49 Morente.
07:51 In for Pompilius, Morente keeps it afloat.
07:55 Van Sickle aims, fires.
07:57 It's handled well on the other side.
08:00 Molina, and a good counter by Sabete.
08:05 It gets a crawl.
08:06 Macandile makes it a set.
08:09 Fernandez reaches with two ties, but they make do,
08:13 and we are tied.
08:14 [CROWD CHEERING]
08:17 This has lifted the game of signal all of a sudden.
08:28 They're playing with a lot more spunk and enthusiasm.
08:32 Chang, Van Sickle, Cayuna alert to it.
08:37 Fernandez, short!
08:42 Really in a stupor.
08:44 We are tied at 15.
08:47 Sabete from the end.
08:53 Fernandez, and Van Sickle is all over it.
08:56 Fernandez there.
08:57 Job.
08:58 Job Fernandez serving.
09:02 Barbone is there.
09:08 Sabete says, I got this.
09:10 Cayuna, Kasugod.
09:13 Logdon is alert to it.
09:16 And that brush, no problem.
09:20 Long time star of UST.
09:23 What a career.
09:24 Oh, that touched Molina.
09:26 That's true.
09:30 Can I have it back?
09:32 Macandile struggled with that particular pick up.
09:36 Chang checks the other side.
09:38 Palma, Zapa.
09:42 They're asking for four touches actually.
09:44 Good rally happening here.
09:54 Long back set.
09:56 Fontenez gets it down the line and brings her team to 23.
10:03 That sector of the volleyball court.
10:06 Galdonis, 23-17 score.
10:09 Kasugod, nowhere to go and we arrive.
10:12 Kayslin Galdonis, rather.
10:16 Set point, ah, Kasugod saves them, one point.
10:21 - In offense.
10:23 - Baza center serve.
10:27 Sabete, too close to the net.
10:29 And we are done, it is an overreach.
10:34 Scored a point but still took that first touch.
10:38 - Palma, how much has her game improved?
10:42 Is it inside or this?
10:43 There's some discussion happening right here.
10:48 But let's see, we'll sort it out in the technical timeout.
10:51 In the meantime, I think we still are correct.
10:53 As Macandile Katindig sets it up.
10:56 Bayuna, I can spike as well.
11:00 Sabine, sabine.
11:04 (speaking in foreign language)
11:08 Oh, down the middle.
11:13 And look at this, Signal has a three-point run.
11:16 - Rory Patrick Castillo, the second referee.
11:19 Double checks the score and it seems we're okay now.
11:22 We have the right score at eight-five.
11:26 Middle, attack.
11:27 Gangler gets it to wide and it's a four-point lead
11:30 for Signal.
11:31 - Petrogas at the right moment.
11:33 When you think you're trying to close the set,
11:34 which is not easy, that's the best time to attack.
11:39 Dalgones nowhere to go, tries to put a hand on it.
11:42 Pontillas, pin to the corner, well done.
11:45 (speaking in foreign language)
11:51 Just knows the distance.
11:53 Good combination there.
11:54 Well done.
11:55 And Signal needs a ton of that.
12:02 Good jump by Sabete.
12:04 Here's Molina.
12:05 Saeb pushes it up.
12:08 Sabete tosses it over.
12:10 Basas was there.
12:11 On two!
12:12 They seem to know where they're going
12:16 with every run of the play.
12:18 Whether they rarely go out of system
12:21 or go into broken plays.
12:22 And look at this, two straight points.
12:27 Barbón is back in as libera.
12:30 Oh, a crawler.
12:32 No whistle.
12:33 Sabete got it in time,
12:35 but this one is perfectly done.
12:37 Down the middle.
12:38 - Really impressive.
12:41 I mean, good effort here coming from Sabete,
12:44 but out of system set.
12:46 And Van Zickle away from the net,
12:49 but Van Zickle making it look so perfect.
12:52 - She lives for those moments, you know?
12:54 Close to the net.
12:56 Gandler gets it at the top of the toss.
13:00 (whistle)
13:02 Acuña will be serving.
13:03 She takes her own sweet time.
13:05 Sabete, Chang back in business.
13:09 Pontillas says,
13:10 "What?"
13:10 (speaking in foreign language)
13:12 Cool, cool, cool, cool.
13:13 Back row, Chang is there.
13:15 Barbón, Pontillas hit.
13:18 Is neutralized.
13:20 And she will joust.
13:21 And a chance to recalibrate an attack here.
13:28 Another long rally in progress.
13:30 Acuña goes to Gandler.
13:32 Smart move by Pontillas who swung around.
13:35 Both teams trying to be calculated.
13:39 Gandler with power.
13:40 Van Zickle.
13:46 Nobody wants the point to die.
13:48 Pipe attack.
13:51 This will take a while.
13:57 Gandler stretches on the ground.
13:59 And a net scrape.
14:03 Just above the net.
14:09 Acuña with a good twirl.
14:12 Pivot on the set, actually.
14:14 Pontillas.
14:15 Ah, right handed shot.
14:17 Short shot.
14:24 Basas had to hustle for it.
14:26 Chang.
14:27 Macandili says, "I got it, don't worry."
14:31 Oh, neatly done.
14:33 Down the middle, two defenders.
14:35 - Seven against the next lead, Chameleons.
14:37 So both teams with two games left after this game.
14:41 - Solid block, Meneses.
14:44 Shot it.
14:45 - And with Petragas with three attackers in the front row.
14:48 Maizo, Pontillas, Palma, and Sabete.
14:51 - Sabete gets to it.
14:54 Pontillas and it's ripped out.
14:56 And we are done.
