00:00 I think you can be in any position but some grow accustomed to a particular spot
00:06 and the drop by De Guzman!
00:10 Gia De Guzman!
00:12 Gia De Guzman again also a threat in offense
00:16 known to be an offensive setter here
00:19 perfect timing again on that one-two play
00:22 I mean she registered six points
00:25 so far, I'm sorry, it's 11-10 so that will be four straight points
00:30 for India now which is in the lead
00:33 close, ah but that's a goal!
00:36 White-10!
00:39 Gia's connection with the middles has been on point since yesterday
00:44 activation from the middle here and again
00:47 Dea Gagates probably the tallest or one of the tallest players
00:50 in Silpa as well, Jeannie is a tall setter actually
00:55 Laure
00:58 it'll go to the Philippines
01:01 Laure has had problems getting action through along that sideline
01:06 but watch this!
01:08 good adjustment on her head, her head there
01:11 really tight
01:14 using her left hand, outsmarting the blocker and the seeker
01:18 Jeannie is all set to uncork her serve
01:22 Gia with the one-handed set, it punches through
01:27 for Angel Canino
01:30 you know it doesn't really matter if there's two blockers there
01:34 take a look at this replay, a one-hand set
01:37 good ball control coming from Gia Dea Gagates
01:41 again, has been delivering consecutive points for India
01:46 and that's a Naga, and she's had a hot first set
01:52 this is a good counter, start by Belay
01:55 that went in the Philippines' face close, 23-22
01:59 now the first time, he used Coronel and Panaguay
02:05 Panaguay also unable to attack
02:09 that strike, kept alive by Cicero Dina de Guzman
02:14 and back with the down, tight tension on the cross
02:17 Angel Canino is a problem India hasn't solved yet in this game
02:27 take a look at that dig of Rondina and that reverse set
02:32 of Gia de Guzman, sharp cross-court again
02:35 for Angel getting a point here
02:40 Rondina de Guzman, and there's a quick connection
02:45 you know the Philippines has to play at a faster pace
02:48 the tempo has to be escalated
02:51 and Sharma could be one of the engineers for that
02:54 Sharma's upstairs, in the meantime the team captain serves
02:59 problematic
03:02 service to Gia de Guzman
03:07 India looking confused right now
03:10 the service game of Alas, Filipinas has been on point
03:16 and the timeout requested by Coach Jai Naran
03:19 chance for the Philippines to close it out
03:27 yes, yes!
03:30 and the Philippines has tied this game at one set apiece
03:36 Angel Canino with three consecutive points
03:45 to win this set for Alas, Filipinas
03:49 but Gia de Guzman just really orchestrating the offense perfectly
03:54 Philippines falling behind by as much as four in this second set
03:58 but recovering just in time to roar back inside this match
04:04 five apiece
04:07 de Guzman makes it a set for Canino
04:10 it's lifted high by the back row of India
04:13 Nieva, Jian with a good stop
04:16 Rondina!
04:18 Sisi Rondina!
04:22 Sisi Rondina on a fist with two blockers there
04:30 it didn't look like there were blockers in that hit of Sisi Rondina
04:35 point to Dea Gagate, easily getting that one
04:38 and it was a good decision to tell Sharma, serve, serve
04:41 uh oh, uh oh, what is happening to India right now?
04:45 Philippines 5-5, 11-6
04:49 Philippines really looking good right now
04:53 playing cohesively, everything going well for them
04:56 even from the service line they are getting a couple of aces in this set
05:01 Aswati
05:15 Gia is like a limpero actually
05:18 head shot, oh!
05:21 and when the bench contributes it's a reason to celebrate
05:27 instant contribution there for Ara Panique
05:33 she played it safe, going for that off speed
05:37 good high right now
05:40 clocked, but kept in play
05:43 kept alive by Gagate
05:46 low, and the back row, Ansuri is there
05:50 Shalani
05:53 another libero named Rondina
05:56 that is gonna stay down, Lauri!
05:59 the net defense of India is not enough anymore
06:05 because Eyal Lauri has been maximizing her strength here
06:11 and she has found some open spaces
06:15 it's not 13-8
06:18 such a steady player
06:21 and Canino is steadier
06:24 talking about steady players
06:27 Gia just knows when to set up Angel Canino
06:35 and Angel Canino is always ready even from the back row
06:39 you can feel the tension in the crowd
06:44 they want this to go to the Philippines
06:47 but it's still anybody's match until Gia Morada de Guzman says
06:52 let's make this happen
06:55 and the timing of that one-two play
06:59 will be crucial
07:02 and Gia Morada de Guzman getting that point
07:05 pulling the floor defense of India
07:08 serve
07:12 and the Philippines win its second straight win
07:20 another four set win
07:25 tying India in the full standings
07:30 what a performance by Alaza Filipina
07:35 in the semifinals
07:38 take a look at this winning point of Eyal Lauri
07:42 Chary Luna holding on to the blockers
07:45 open block, perfect way to get their second win
07:49 and the joy for the Philippines
07:57 and its love for volleyball will overflow tonight
