00:00 But I did mention this earlier in the pregame, Chiki.
00:03 It's a mental game.
00:04 It's a psychological game.
00:06 And you have to rise above your emotions.
00:08 - As Cici Rondino, we're talking about how she should be
00:11 actually, and I did say this in the pregame,
00:14 if the Chocomucho Flying Titans want to win today,
00:18 Maddie Madajac needs to be utilized a bit more.
00:21 - Couple of miscues already from Dreamline
00:25 that they should be able to maximize.
00:28 Talking about Chocomucho, like at this point,
00:30 so that's two straight points.
00:32 - Chocomucho to earn their points,
00:34 and they can get started here after two points in a row now.
00:37 It's a chance for Dita Wong to create.
00:41 Cici is now in front.
00:42 What a pick up there by Ravilia,
00:44 but not good enough to keep the ball in play.
00:47 - To the left pin or the right pin.
00:49 I mean, when you constantly give the left or right pin,
00:53 you're not giving them freedom to attack.
00:57 - Good set, that's an open set,
00:59 and that's a good stop there.
01:02 Chocomucho will finally get a point.
01:05 Much needed side out for Chocomucho.
01:09 - Followed by a miss serve, you are unable to maintain
01:13 your own momentum if you have unforced errors.
01:16 - And Cici will score her first point in the second set.
01:21 - 11 now for Eliza Valdez.
01:26 Good first ball by Ponce, and Rondina stopped.
01:31 Let's see if she gets another chance.
01:32 Second chance is gold for Cici Rondina.
01:36 But we also wanna mention Gemma Galanza,
01:39 who scored that last point, is all around game.
01:42 She has had a lot of good saves.
01:44 Rondina stopped again there by Eliza.
01:47 Ball still good.
01:50 Gemma will go.
01:54 Chance here for Chocomucho to counter Cici.
01:56 - Inside, she is known for her running attacks,
02:00 so that will definitely be utilized.
02:04 - One point lead for Cream Line and Cici Rondina.
02:12 - Not a clean attack, just tooling that hand,
02:15 touching that hand rather, of Kyle Negrito.
02:18 - Running attack for Ponce, Ponce was there.
02:22 Rondina will go, and the pickup.
02:25 Just solidly kicked in here,
02:28 as it does every time for Cream Line.
02:31 No first ball from Chocomucho.
02:33 - Surmised her before she heads to the back row.
02:39 Oh, service ace for Cici.
02:42 As her first ace, and she is now on top of the scoring here.
02:48 - Are watching out for, and we are getting treated
02:50 by a lot of great volleyball here, Jamie.
02:53 - And the Chocomucho Flying Titans have now another chance
02:58 of extending this match.
02:59 It was crunch time for them in that previous set,
03:02 but that girl, Cici Rondina, is alive when in--
03:07 - Looking for that, that is really the target,
03:12 their first win against their sister team.
03:14 - Rondina!
03:19 And now we're seeing the cut shots
03:20 that we have come to expect from Cici.
03:23 - Joy after seeing that attack coming from Cici Rondina.
03:27 - Good set.
03:29 - Eliza is checked.
03:31 Back row attack, Rondina!
03:34 Did you see the hang time on that?
03:36 - A lot of the sets will be pushed out to that left pin,
03:39 because Kyle Negrito, her skill set is not blocking.
03:44 So you can see the strategy.
03:48 - Cici Rondina, I mean.
03:50 - That's a good serve, an over receive,
03:55 but look at Negrito.
03:57 - So aggressive again.
03:58 - Puts it in again, another one!
04:01 This time a joust won by Cici, humante!
04:05 Rondina will go again.
04:10 She's checked.
04:12 Gemma, way too far.
04:14 Ball still good.
04:16 Cici with the attack!
04:19 And this time,
04:20 Tyler Tiaza couldn't get there,
04:22 but we are going to see.
04:25 - But which place do you go to and when?
04:27 - They are the brain of the team.
04:29 They control the tempo.
04:31 And sometimes you just want to go to the one
04:35 that will hit it every time.
04:36 The transition, no time to think, it's all instinct.
04:40 - Cici from the left pin!
04:44 (crowd cheering)
04:47 Six deadlock.
04:50 Rondina leaps!
04:55 And the contact, perfect timing!
