00:00 It's her mission to really become one of the best receivers in the league.
00:03 She's in the top 10 in the conference.
00:05 That's right and that has been the play so far of the teams.
00:08 You know, targeting Sissi, paguring si Sissi.
00:11 And di ba, pangalan niya ng Sissi Rondina papagod.
00:19 Exactly.
00:19 First time BDL and then Lazaro.
00:23 Yes.
00:24 Will be going up against their old team.
00:26 Molde.
00:30 Atienza with a dig.
00:33 Bonse with her own.
00:37 From behind, the push.
00:39 That's such a classic Sissi Rondina.
00:43 You know, volleyball like you used to.
00:45 But another flying titan has managed to fly higher and step up and that is Honey Royce
00:51 Tobino.
00:52 Now Royce tells me she's grateful for the chance.
00:54 The start, di ba.
00:55 Yes.
00:56 Remember when she made the ship in Chocomucho?
00:58 Yep, yep, yep.
00:59 And since Janna was talking about training,
01:01 as compared to when she was with PLDP because of the venues of the training.
01:12 BDL, her first point against her former team.
01:18 Static lineup for uh,
01:20 Creamline Blue Smashers.
01:22 You see, you know,
01:23 veteran Tobino.
01:28 Goes to Denden.
01:31 That was a little bit high.
01:39 Tobino's body line, that's why she let it go.
01:42 But I mean, Todd Scarlett,
01:44 Sukat na Sukat and Tobino a little bit off.
01:47 It is essential for Creamline to win this match, to keep themselves in the hunt.
01:52 Valdez, return to Sender.
01:56 Tight.
01:57 Shut down or her former teammate.
02:01 That's automatically a point.
02:06 Panaga.
02:08 Five.
02:10 Sorry, fans.
02:12 Panaga with her second point.
02:14 Highlighted her numbers in the finals.
02:17 Good activation there.
02:21 Zee, especially it is Petrogas and PLDP that are number one and two.
02:27 It's just because
02:27 Savvy Davidson, is that what it is?
02:31 The King Crunchers in attendance.
02:33 The Crisp Cross King Crunchers.
02:36 Creamline ahead by four.
02:43 Sisi from behind.
02:44 Good reaction there by Galanza to at least keep it in play.
02:50 Sisi asking for another one, but it is Royce who goes over the triple block.
02:54 Where, you know, Choco Mucho was ahead.
03:03 Oh man, he sent it over.
03:06 Magkakatawod pa rin para kay Molde.
03:10 Bumalik!
03:12 And Topino, yeah.
03:13 So far, that has been the story here in set number one.
03:17 There is a reason why they are multiple champions.
03:21 There's a reason why they're defending champions.
03:23 There's also a reason why they are 11-0 against the Titans.
03:27 Negrito shoots it to Aliza Valdez!
03:30 20!
03:33 So far, the Cool Smashers seems like, you know,
03:38 breezing through this match, catching the Flying Titans a little bit, you know, off-guard.
03:43 So, they're okay.
03:45 Their relationship with Araneta is okay.
03:49 Gemma!
03:51 We haven't heard from her!
03:52 Gemma Galanza, don't forget!
03:54 Galanza, an outside hitter, you know,
03:56 you're always gonna have to be the best in adjusting in sets.
04:00 Misreceived.
04:02 Shaky.
04:05 Yeah.
04:06 Running attack!
04:09 Sisi sends it back.
04:10 Dots will set it up to Gemma again.
04:13 Choco still in it.
04:17 Rather steep hill to climb here for the Flying Titans.
04:21 Especially at the end.
04:22 Creamline, usually very good at protecting leads.
04:26 Nobody home!
04:29 This is not your usual Flying Titan form.
04:34 They're usually the best in blocking.
04:37 This will be Mars Alba's first time against Creamline.
04:41 So, that was also an interesting factor.
04:45 Kyle Degrito closes the show for the first set.
05:01 There is a certain look in the Creamline faces right now.
05:06 I'm looking at them.
05:07 They're very serious today.
05:10 Definitely.
05:11 Sisi with a serious leap.
05:13 Gets the point.
05:15 Scrapes the line.
05:16 And gives him a two-point lead!
05:18 Thank you very much, Jana.
05:20 And you're right, you know, if Creamline loses,
05:22 they go down, obviously, seventh and three.
05:25 Temporarily, as you see that emphatic block.
05:29 But don't look now, because blocking is back on the side of the Flying Titans.
05:35 7-5.
05:37 By the way, that breaks a 3-0 run of Creamline.
05:40 Dots again.
05:43 Dog by Tubino.
05:45 Maddie with a power tip.
05:47 Gets a point back.
05:48 Good first ball there.
05:52 Run and gun!
05:57 If you're blocking something like that, you need to be established.
06:01 So, you know, the balls get rebounded really well.
06:05 Sisi was still moving in that run.
06:06 Huling-hule.
06:07 Just like that, on cue.
06:11 10-9.
06:14 Banks-Panaga, we highlighted the value of her award five times.
06:19 And sometimes people forget that.
06:21 Chance here to tie for Creamline.
06:25 Pogs, it was ready.
06:27 Sisi on the counter.
06:28 Gemma, one of the better servers, always on every conference.
06:40 And Sisi, yes, takes the lead!
06:44 Corner pocket shot.
06:57 Puts it away.
06:58 With the same kind of power behind every swing.
07:01 Good receive there by Sisi.
07:06 Underhand pass.
07:09 Carlos says, "Squeeze me!"
07:12 For the 16th point for the Creamline Cool Smashers.
07:16 Back to Denise.
07:21 Nobody home!
07:25 Gemma Galanza!
07:26 Gemma receiving.
07:32 Remisive, bumalo.
07:33 Maddie on the run.
07:36 Backtracking.
07:38 To the other players.
07:40 Even with Choco Mucho, you know?
07:43 That's out.
07:46 Was there a block touch?
07:48 Yes, there was, according to Bobby Celso.
07:50 20 serving, 18.
07:54 Tina, underhand to Sisi.
07:56 We have seen that time and time again.
08:00 And there is no accident there.
08:02 5'6", if I'm not mistaken.
08:05 That's 5,000 more than the previous record, which was 19,000.
08:10 See, as Creamline now is lording it over.
08:15 It's just standing, because the Cool Smashers have formed their blockers.
08:21 And who's the Cool Smashers?
08:22 Gemma is waiting for the down the line.
08:24 Speaking of, nobody is watching.
08:27 Down the line.
08:28 That's been a valuable sub for Coach Sherwin.
08:32 Molde.
08:36 Gets a point back.
08:40 Down 3.
08:41 20, 23.
08:44 Go back to Denise.
08:47 Tots rolls it to the other side.
08:51 Tina sends it to Molde.
08:52 Doug.
08:54 Counterattack.
08:56 Maddie shuts the door on PDL.
09:00 Three-point lead earlier in the set.
09:05 Creamline has had a four-point lead in this set.
09:07 Denise again with a perfect pass.
09:11 Look at that.
09:11 Following the script.
09:14 You got MG in front, making sure it's a good block.
09:19 Royce gets one point back.
09:25 One set point save.
09:26 She can also set to Dina Hong.
09:30 As you can see, she can also back row.
09:32 Valdez.
09:36 Coverage by Galanza.
09:39 Back to Valdez.
09:40 Cross court.
09:42 And Valdez scores.
09:45 For the Flying Titans, extend this one heck of a night, boom.
09:50 Third set is on the run.
09:52 The rebound off CC Rondina's attack.
09:56 Galanza.
09:57 Binantayan ni Wong sa down the line.
09:59 CC from behind.
10:00 Binantayan ni Panaga sa gitna ng net.
10:03 Negrito reverses to Tots.
10:07 Of course, he does.
10:08 And
10:10 indeed, two losses of Creamline.
10:19 And even in that win against Farm Fresh and in that win against Signal.
10:24 Signal had a two sets to love lead and a four-point lead in the third set, which they lost.
10:29 And now they have a two sets to love lead here.
10:36 Galanza.
10:39 Valdez was there for coverage.
10:42 Tots na naman.
10:43 There is nobody more.
10:47 That's the risk that they have to take at this point, boom.
10:51 Not that time, says Eliza Valdez.
10:53 Molde gets it back though.
10:57 It's been a while.
10:59 So let's hear from Jana Ehilo.
11:01 Carlos, kanina, it is all in our hands.
11:04 Lagi lang kami nire-remind ni coach to stay focused and most importantly, prepared.
11:08 In fact, coach Charoen also added to this conversation.
11:10 Molde gets one back at the on the Chocomucho team.
11:23 And it's interesting because again, the pressure is actually on the Cool Smashers to win today.
11:28 Pero ang bigat ng body language nitong Flying Titans.
11:33 Well, you know, the first point there is Creamline's used to the pressure also.
11:39 In that context, may pressure din ang Chocomucho to win.
11:42 Yes.
11:43 Because they haven't won against Creamline.
11:45 PDL with a block breakup.
11:51 Points for his team, 14 for Creamline.
11:55 Cece will get it back.
11:58 Finally gets one for herself.
12:02 12 points for Rondina.
12:04 That's what it is.
12:05 Execution has been very close to perfect.
12:09 Rondina from behind.
12:11 Atienza.
12:12 Nobody taking the second ball.
12:15 And millions more watching all over the world.
12:19 Chocomucho fans a bit shocked here that they're down six and down two sets.
12:28 Reverse to Tubino.
12:30 Again, the delay by the blocking of Creamline.
12:34 And speaking of blocking, they get one on Eliza of supporting their favorites.
12:40 Shank.
12:43 Shank again on the receive on their sister team right now.
12:49 Balde right behind the blockers.
12:54 Balde wanted to get there, couldn't.
12:59 You know, she goes to a team where historically the improvement of the middle blockers is well
13:06 documented.
13:07 Even if maybe it's not as huge of a jump, but you know that it's gonna work.
13:17 Because they put such a premium in their middle blockers.
13:21 Creamline does.
13:23 That's the reason why attackers like Gemma and Tots have a lot of opportunities.
13:28 Because they always go for the middle blockers.
13:30 Because the middle blockers of Creamline are aggressive.
13:34 Chocomucho with only one loss so far in the tournament.
13:39 That was against the high speed hitters at the San Juan Arena.
13:42 Calanza.
13:46 The one-hand dig by Sisi.
13:49 And Sisi finally with a block breaker there for her 16th point.
13:53 Cail.
13:55 To BDL.
13:57 Rondina saves one.
14:07 Rondina.
14:13 To Valdez.
14:15 Calanza rolls it to the other side.
14:17 And Chocomucho saving it.
14:21 And Chocomucho saving a couple of match points.
14:25 2-0 run.
14:30 Elisa with a perfect pass.
14:33 One-two play did not materialize.
14:36 Try again says Cail.
14:38 Panaga sent back.
14:40 It is outside.
14:42 And Creamline does it.
14:44 Straight sets win.
