00:00 It is going to be a very interesting match.

00:03 They are equal in our standings.

00:05 Two wins, five losses for both our squads.

00:08 Let's get things started.

00:10 Soltones.

00:12 And that is inside.

00:15 Aero system play for Soltones makes it work.

00:18 All sorts of problems today.

00:20 They gotta establish that confidence as well early on.

00:23 A lot of big names here for the Chargers.

00:26 And speaking of a big name, of course, we have Dindin Santiago.

00:30 And exactly what they need.

00:32 Talking about the high risers, they need that firepower.

00:35 And that is sails outside for Dindin in Santa Rosa.

00:42 And those watching us as well on Pilipinas Live.

00:44 And for us as well.

00:46 Of course.

00:47 We love to see it.

00:48 Another good save this time from Ronquillo.

00:51 Quick one from Ipa.

00:53 You said, Billy, here in Santa Rosa.

00:56 The high risers are awake today.

00:59 And ready for this ballgame.

01:01 And you can also tell by their body language.

01:03 And they're showing it today.

01:04 They look like they're pretty well matched.

01:07 Again, we have been saying it the whole coverage.

01:11 That they will not finish strong.

01:14 There is still that chance, a very slim chance.

01:17 To make it to the semifinals.

01:19 But right now, it's about enjoying the game.

01:21 And Pippi Sharma, I'm pretty sure, is enjoying herself here.

01:24 That's a big boost.

01:26 For one of the fan favorites.

01:28 Every time they call out her name.

01:29 The cheers get louder.

01:31 5'6".

01:32 Or maybe even shorter.

01:34 But again, she's one of the most athletic players that we have.

01:36 On the side of Akari.

01:38 Good chase.

01:39 Lots of chasing that we're witnessing right now.

01:44 Santiago Manaba.

01:46 MNAS with a pancake.

01:49 Back to the galleries.

01:51 Paran.

01:53 Dug up by Pineda.

01:54 Soltones!

01:56 Is rejected.

01:59 A tough block there.

02:01 But I have to tell you, Billie Toromal with the footfall.

02:05 Her whole foot was actually on the side of Akari.

02:08 It was just missed by the referee.

02:11 So lucky for her.

02:12 Eza Madrigal, two points for her.

02:13 Off two attacks.

02:14 And Nas.

02:18 Oh, a smart play.

02:20 From Fem and Nas.

02:24 You see a clear weakness in the defense of Akari.

02:27 Every time they have a good recognition on the part of galleries.

02:31 Akari needing better anticipation here in this game.

02:35 But what about Aliza Iroi doing magic here?

02:38 For the high risers.

02:39 Back set.

02:40 To Dindin.

02:42 It's good.

02:43 That's the way to go if you're Michelle Cobb.

02:46 Great hitters in front.

02:48 You have options at the back.

02:49 So you want to keep changing and moving your sets.

02:52 Pretty fast-paced volleyball we're watching as well from both these teams.

02:56 And we like to see that sense of urgency on the side of galleries.

03:01 And on the side of Akari as well.

03:03 I feel galleries playing a different level today.

03:07 Akari is taking a back from what we can see right now.

03:13 I mean, look at that hustle.

03:15 Pinball effect.

03:16 Hats off to the setting of Michelle Cobb.

03:22 The opportunity.

03:24 What a great running attack.

03:28 Six to nothing run for Akari.

03:33 Just like that.

03:34 They are at set point.

03:35 M-Nas, they need something good.

03:37 And Ipak delivers.

03:39 Run the middles.

03:41 When she said that, M-Nas looked at Ipak and gave her a...

03:45 Well, galleries hoping for a streak of their own.

03:48 Maybe a turnaround, we'll see.

03:50 But here comes Dindin.

03:51 Says, "Nope."

03:52 Let's take a look at this again.

03:56 Oh, there you go.

03:58 Trouble, jeopardy.

03:59 She scores a point and the net.

04:00 At any rate, it is a full court.

04:03 Her sisterly attitude on and off the court.

04:06 She recognizes the power of leading by example.

04:09 Even if it's a simple smile.

04:11 As this can help take off the pressure.

04:13 And serve as a reminder to just keep pushing.

04:16 Just like what happened in the first set.

04:18 For Dindin, if she can turn Akari into a more unified team.

04:21 They might just be able to turn the tides of the conference.

04:24 And in her words,

04:25 "We'll see what Akari can do."

04:28 This report is brought to you by the Pilipinas Live app.

04:31 Good start for them in the first set.

04:33 Right now, they are at four.

04:35 Galleries at three.

04:36 Another close start to our second set here.

04:40 MNAS, Eroa, buff set to Bombita.

04:45 Good save.

04:46 That was Bang Pineda.

04:47 Raagas, no go.

04:49 Pineda asking for it.

04:51 A chance here for Galleries.

04:55 Bombita.

04:56 Are they going to be able to chase it?

04:58 Yes, they do.

05:01 Another chance for Galleries.

05:03 Bombita will try again.

05:05 Blocked!

05:06 Look at this.

05:08 Look at Fifi Sharma.

05:09 That move is brought to you by Honda Motorcycle.

05:15 Great decision making by the blockers.

05:19 Four sets.

05:20 Fifi with a quick one.

05:23 Thumbs up and down low for Fifi Sharma.

05:26 To seeing between Cobb and Sharma.

05:29 Look at that.

05:30 What a beautiful play.

05:31 Executed so flawlessly.

05:33 Two point lead now for Galleries.

05:36 Good serve.

05:38 MNAS to Esguerra.

05:41 Gets one of her own.

05:42 To go more to the middle.

05:44 And finally, they do.

05:46 But at any rate, the play continues.

05:52 Akari is still up by two.

05:54 Fifi serves.

05:55 MNAS.

05:56 Paran with a push.

05:59 Soltones.

06:00 Better adjustment there.

06:02 Great coverage for Galleries.

06:04 Bragas.

06:08 MNAS to Ipak.

06:11 Gretchen.

06:15 It's a save.

06:17 Fenn to Ipak.

06:19 Here comes Michelle Cobb.

06:27 Bronquillo out of system play.

06:30 They have to be a different mindset.

06:43 And they gotta keep that fire going.

06:46 Dindin.

06:50 White shirts.

06:53 It is 10 serving 13.

06:56 Good pass.

06:57 Soltones, another one.

07:01 So this seems to be working for Gretchen in this game.

07:04 Try to be effective.

07:07 You know, if you're struggling in terms of getting your stroke,

07:09 we always say you can do it.

07:10 Defensive blocking.

07:11 Just find the hole.

07:12 And changing the tempo of the approach.

07:15 Overpass.

07:17 Great coverage from Franz Bronquillo.

07:20 Bombita puts it away.

07:23 Well, they don't want the easy way.

07:25 Talk about Galleries.

07:26 They want Bombita to take charge here.

07:30 She's averaging 6.1 points per game.

07:33 They need to see that offense from her.

07:36 Here comes Bronquillo out of system again.

07:38 Joust at the net.

07:40 One by Akari.

07:42 Three-point push for the Chargers.

07:46 That's a good one.

07:47 But steady reception as well from Bang Pineda.

07:52 Bombita.

07:53 That's outside.

07:54 Oh, there's going to be a touch.

07:57 Yeah, you're right.

07:59 Akari threatening to pull away here like they did towards the last part of the first set.

08:04 Four-point lead.

08:06 MNAS finds Bombita.

08:09 Right at the corner for Grace Bombita going cross.

08:13 To show us what she can do in this ballgame.

08:17 Back set to Sharma.

08:21 MNAS to Bombita.

08:23 Good thing.

08:24 Soltones.

08:27 Esguerra.

08:30 Saved by the elbow.

08:32 Oh, Grecha, they're going to save it.

08:34 What a save!

08:35 Wait a minute.

08:36 Eliza Eroa almost had it there.

08:44 But great volleyball that we are witnessing today here in Santa Rosa.

08:49 100% attendance.

08:52 All the players on the court.

08:54 Paran!

08:56 Oh, that is outside.

08:59 Rem calls it outside.

09:01 MNAS with nine excellent sets under her belt in our ballgame.

09:05 She will serve.

09:06 They pass it to Dindin.

09:11 Ipak.

09:14 Dindin from the back.

09:18 Good dig from Shola.

09:20 Paran with a push.

09:21 Soltones again!

09:25 Another one.

09:26 The deception by Grecha Soltones.

09:30 What's Akari at set point?

09:33 Bombita.

09:36 Good dig.

09:37 Raagas.

09:40 That's outside and that is it for our second set.

09:46 Now healthy and playing extended minutes for Akari.

09:50 A lot of growth and maturity as well for Grecha ever since her college days in San Sebastian.

09:57 Where she was teammates, right, with Eliza Eroa.

10:00 We said that a while ago.

10:02 As we turn it over to Kaila Castillo.

10:04 Turned into uncontainable gigel.

10:07 If we recall, the Gatheries only passed one win last conference, which they were able to double already.

10:12 So very quick turnaround.

10:15 Good dig.

10:16 Cobb.

10:18 To Dindin.

10:20 A very, very interesting fast-paced game that we're having today.

10:26 Akari is holding on to a three-point lead.

10:29 Cobb will go to Fifi.

10:33 But she is blocked.

10:36 So that she has a lot of potential.

10:38 We have been seeing her for a while now here in the PVL.

10:42 Here comes Erika Raagas. Dug up by Eroa.

10:45 Oh!

10:48 That was well to, first Eroa, and then Finn M. Nass.

10:53 Great ball distribution on the side of Mitch Cobb.

10:56 Total team effort on the side of the Chargers.

10:59 Ronquillo.

11:02 Cobb.

11:04 To Raagas.

11:05 Babalik sa Akari.

11:07 Raagas for the second time.

11:09 Still no go.

11:11 They're gonna save it.

11:12 And Dindin sends it over.

11:13 A chance for Galleries.

11:15 They choose France Ronquillo.

11:17 Oh!

11:18 Marzan is actually back in for Galleries.

11:22 Barbie Marzan played in the first set.

11:24 A little shaky coming off the bench.

11:29 That's gonna be a service ace for Ipac.

11:32 They're down.

11:33 Oh, sorry, they are on a deadlock.

11:34 Checks in.

11:35 Another good serve.

11:40 Ronquillo.

11:41 Oh, no, it's playable.

11:43 Biglong bawi naman dun.

11:46 You cannot go wrong with this front line.

11:51 And right now, Akari.

11:53 7-0 run for them.

11:55 Hoping to finish this game.

11:59 What will Galleries do?

12:01 Chance for Akari.

12:02 Cobb.

12:04 To Fink.

12:05 Drops the hammer.

12:09 Akari team.

12:11 A whole lot of spice, actually.

12:14 Bombita, blocked.

12:18 A little hesitation on the part of the Chargers.

12:27 A substitution, but look at that height again in front.

12:32 So there.

12:33 Bombita, dug up by Pinedas.

12:36 Maraginot passes it to Faith.

12:39 Great dig from Iroha.

12:40 Paran from the back.

12:42 And there's a touch by Maraginot.

12:46 22-15.

12:48 Maraginot.

12:52 To Soyud.

12:53 She is dug up.

12:55 Jocelyn Tanet.

12:56 1-1 by Galleries.

12:59 And she gets the point.

13:01 Maraginot.

13:04 Tight set.

13:05 PPS says, "I'm good.

13:08 I can do it."

13:09 Good pass.

13:14 Paran.

13:16 And she is rejected.

13:20 I'm looking at a lot of pink shirts cheer for her serve.

13:25 You don't know if they're cheering for Sharma or they're cheering because it's closer to the Green Light game.

13:31 Doroman.

13:33 Saves a match point.

13:35 Yeah, you just want to carry to fight for that match point.

13:40 Maraginot.

13:43 To Marciano, the drop.

13:45 Great save by Paran.

13:47 And Bombita cannot believe it.

13:53 Cannot believe.

13:54 And Bombita said, "I don't know."

13:57 A point is a point.

13:59 For the game, not yet.

14:01 And don't look now.

14:02 But Galleries making it very, very difficult.

14:06 Galleries' tower on a run here.

14:10 As Maraginot will go to Marciano.

14:14 To the line.

14:15 Not yet.

14:16 Oh, that is inside.

14:18 And don't look now, Noreen.

14:22 Nang Ankari.

14:23 Entry ng baho talaga.

14:24 Yeah.

14:25 Nang Galleries.

14:26 But that's what you want to see all the time.

14:28 If they have Ankari, they have a substitution.

14:31 Yeah.

14:32 They bring back Gretchen Sotones.

14:34 Hoping to add some firepower.

14:36 Bopse to Soyud.

14:37 Oh, a chance here for Galleries.

14:40 And they will go to Doroman.

14:42 Not yet.

14:44 Bombita from the back.

14:45 Saved by Wanko.

14:46 Soyud for the game.

14:50 Eddie Soyud gets the win.

14:56 - And Tony Sawyer gets things done.
