00:00 Ken Batas, the third best scorer in the league by the way.

00:04 He keeps this ball live.

00:09 Mangulabdan. Batas again!

00:12 And this time, that's clearly on the line.

00:15 And also the service coming from Jan Mangulabdan, giving a hard time on the side of Heath to receive the ball well.

00:22 That's right, he made up for his previous error a while ago, scoring that attack point.

00:29 And now, Larzon with the elevation.

00:32 That leap to score that point from the back row.

00:35 Back row plays, this is really important also.

00:39 As you can see, only one blocker in front, really in front of them.

00:43 So they need to switch up their attacks, give variations.

00:47 Yes, a while ago you saw Noel Campton.

00:51 They're on the match after this. It's Edu Lasal, number 2 and number 3 in the standings.

00:58 Scoring an easy point for him.

01:00 Kennedy Batas with 7 points here in Set 1 so far.

01:04 Mangulabdan will open up to Larzon.

01:07 Dug up by Pozas.

01:10 Aligayon against the Ateneo blockers.

01:13 Aligayon will go up again.

01:16 What a save to keep this ball alive.

01:20 Rally continues.

01:22 Mangulabdan to Batas.

01:26 Batas will get a point off the block.

01:28 For the ball, it's the knee.

01:30 Because of his hard hip and a quick wrist action.

01:34 That's what really makes the ball bounce because of the flick of his wrist.

01:38 Josh Pozas, he's the top scorer for UE.

01:42 2 points so far in this set.

01:45 Block attempt will sail outside for him.

01:49 Make that set point for the Blue Eagles.

01:53 So nice, he recovered well coming from his injury.

01:57 Playing well, helping the Ateneo to score.

02:00 Getting that ball on the floor right away.

02:05 Mangulabdan to Salarzon from the back.

02:07 That drops inside.

02:09 Another point for Gian Salarzon.

02:12 Find a way on how to stop that attack coming from Salarzon from that type of attack.

02:21 That's huge.

02:24 That's huge for 2 sets.

02:26 Almost a set given away by Ateneo.

02:29 But, Ken Batas responds to the call of Coach Timmy.

02:34 A point courtesy of this attack is from Mangulabdan.

02:39 Batas loves this spot.

02:41 Went down, causing them a lot of troubles on how to score even.

02:48 Set up a play due to the hard serving side of Ateneo.

02:54 Those counter attacks have been well done.

02:59 Combination plays also coming from Gian Mangulabdan.

03:03 He's going to make a move coming from the spottons.

03:06 He needs to make Gopio's jet move.

03:08 Going for a running or for those B-Quicks.

03:11 And there you go.

03:15 Pacino switching it up there.

03:17 Two points for him.

03:19 Take a look at this again.

03:22 Especially in the latter parts of it.

03:24 Gian Mangulabdan will serve for the set.

03:28 Tabikar to Reyes.

03:30 Popped up by Salarzon a while ago.

03:32 Batas.

03:34 Aligayen will set.

03:37 Roca will have to send this over.

03:39 Mangulabdan will choose Pacino.

03:43 Pacino will end set 3 in favor of the Blue Eagles.

03:47 They need a clean point to score a point.

03:50 And that's what Pacino did on that last play.

03:55 Giving another set.

03:57 That's a great advantage for him.

03:59 One all is the score.

04:01 An attack a while ago by Shan Kamaymayan.

04:03 The one handed set from Mangulabdan.

04:06 The Cyrus.

04:08 Ateneo there.

04:11 That was a great body control coming from Gian Mangulabdan.

04:14 That soft touch.

04:16 Scoring that point.

04:18 Salarzon will manage to break down against Ian Salarzon.

04:24 A big block at that.

04:26 Tiguzman.

04:32 Smart find.

04:34 No one was there.

04:36 21 points.

04:39 He had a hard hit that time.
