00:00 To all here.

00:03 But you know those those stats as Ibanez.

00:06 Getting that first ball, he's the number one receiver in the tournament.

00:20 Check there by UST.

00:26 Pumped back row from Ibanez and that's a point.

00:30 OG Mamon giving instructions to G-Boy De Vega that he can't go on.

00:35 Because the blockers of the FEU are high.

00:37 So if you're against really good blockers like the Tamarounds, you have to hit it high and low.

00:42 But what a play for Josh Ibanez.

00:44 Getting a touch on that and saving it.

00:47 And in the dig by Pudurun Shadow.

00:50 But the block coming from Bugawan.

00:52 What a sequence for both teams.

00:55 From Bugawan.

00:56 You have to see this play first from Josh Ibanez.

01:00 Checking that ball aim and the dive kneel.

01:03 However, Martin Bugawan spoiling that one and getting FEU the point.

01:09 Kakau.

01:16 Goes to the middle.

01:18 Nabangan Nicolinares.

01:20 Martin Bugawan.

01:22 A solid rejection there.

01:28 9-12 here in set number one.

01:31 Yampao goes back to Nicolinares with some hang time and a smash.

01:40 Facing for UST.

01:42 One of the game plans of FEU is to primarily stop Josh Ibanez on the offensive end of things.

01:49 But if you have middle blockers like Highball coming from Jabelona.

01:54 That would be a point for FEU.

01:56 Oh, Ibanez.

01:58 The attack there.

02:00 Because there were a couple of games na ang dami nilang binibigay na free points

02:05 na mapupunta na sana sa kada na yung panalo.

02:07 But they end up losing because of those miscues.

02:12 Good dig coming from Pudurun Shadow.

02:14 Ibanez binitin and gets the point.

02:19 Another three blockers set up by the Tama House.

02:21 Look at this.

02:23 It's the double pump.

02:27 He also has to transition to a more offensive role if they want to get into the finals.

02:33 Because right now, Bugawan has been checked by Nicolinares.

02:38 Four excellent sets for Yelkakau.

02:43 Yampao.

02:45 Ibanez.

02:46 Oh, yun yung sinasabi mo Neil. It's hard.

02:49 The transition plays.

02:51 He's trying to maintain that two-point lead.

02:54 Good reflex from De Vega. He goes up for the spike.

03:01 Everybody is just on fire on the USD squad.

03:07 That gives them some separation here.

03:15 Oh, misreceived.

03:17 Ends up as a free ball.

03:20 Yampao chooses.

03:22 Ibanez wasn't so ready for it.

03:26 But Pudurun Shadow playing excellent defense.

03:30 Sumandal gets the point.

03:32 Ducks Yampao.

03:34 A few blockers were squaring up for the outside hitter of USD,

03:40 but they forgot that Sherwin O. Mandal was still there in the front row.

03:45 And another timeout called by FPU.

03:48 20-22.

03:51 Yampao goes to Colinares, picked up by FPU.

03:55 Yelkakau goes middle.

03:57 And the point from Lyric Mendoza.

04:00 The unexpected set works for the Tabaraos.

04:04 Three points now for Mendoza.

04:08 And the lead in the greatest game of FPU and USD.

04:12 Three to nothing run for FPU.

04:18 USD needs to score a point, and they do so courtesy of O. Mandal.

04:26 But you can expect it in the endgame.

04:30 Yampao back sets to O. Mandal.

04:36 And the last couple of points coming from Sherwin O. Mandal.

04:41 Seven points.

04:42 First, this is going to be blocking substitution for Coach Oji Mamon.

04:47 He built in De La Noche.

04:51 Ravila will be tested.

04:53 Martinez back sets.

04:57 Chance here for USD.

05:00 To the right pin and the point.

05:03 Substitution to get set one for USD.

05:08 Sometimes substitutions don't work, but in the case of USD, it worked.

05:13 And they got that winning point in set number one.

05:17 De La Noche.

05:19 De Vega will serve.

05:22 And it starts off with an ace.

05:24 Six to five is the score.

05:30 Yampao back sets to O. Mandal.

05:34 And Sherwin will score.

05:37 Nice set.

05:39 Eight to seven.

05:43 Misreceived. Chance here for the Yellow Shirts.

05:47 They go middle, but a block coming from floor.

05:50 The set is short so that he can hit it above the block.

05:55 But let's see if they will adjust this.

05:58 It was moved to the right.

06:00 But rejected there by Josh Ibanez.

06:04 Ibanez.

06:05 Two-point lead now for USD.

06:10 The push.

06:15 Yampao dives. O. Mandal from the back.

06:18 And another point.

06:20 The set place of Ariel Cacao.

06:22 So he has to change things up.

06:24 There are a lot of different combination plays that he can go to.

06:28 Ibanez.

06:34 The one-two.

06:38 And Martinez gets the point.

06:40 So Coach Oggi was anticipating a short point for the Golden Spikers.

06:46 Maybe another point for FU will lead to a timeout.

06:50 But they're able to respond.

06:53 Ibanez with a serve.

06:58 Martinez to Javelona.

07:01 Sent back.

07:02 Nalipat sa kanan.

07:04 Back row attack for Saavedra.

07:07 Here at the tail end of set number two.

07:10 Lead was at five points a while ago.

07:13 Down to just one.

07:15 And the point for De Vega stops that run.

07:19 17 to 15.

07:22 Oh, that drops inside.

07:26 Back to back points for UST.

07:29 Colinares continues to serve.

07:32 Martinez goes to Talisayan.

07:36 Good dig.

07:37 O. Mandal.

07:39 Down it goes for Sherwin O. Mandal.

07:42 Sherwin O. Mandal, so he just pushed that with force.

07:47 Yampao.

07:49 Mendoza bumps it.

07:54 The dig once again.

07:56 Ibanez from the back.

07:59 Second drive for Bugawan.

08:01 An exchange of attacks there and a point goes to FU.

08:06 That's what he expects from a double sub.

08:08 It doesn't matter if there are a lot of points,

08:11 but the moment, when they'll score, that's what's important.

08:15 When it matters the most.

08:17 But, attack of Talisayan.

08:21 Martinez.

08:23 Martinez goes to Talisayan.

08:27 And that goes out.

08:30 Off the touch of UST.

08:33 Avila sets up the play.

08:37 They go to De Vega.

08:39 Wide open.

08:41 23 serving 18.

08:44 A push.

08:51 Doesn't go over.

08:53 UST knew it.

08:55 And the golden spikers are back.

08:58 FU down by four.

09:00 19 serving 23.

09:02 Avila.

09:03 Back sets again.

09:05 And De La Noche able to get that point.

09:09 Puts UST at 17.

09:12 Puts UST at set point.

09:16 And he's been doing that throughout this match.

09:19 Five set points here.

09:21 Chance for UST.

09:23 Avila goes middle.

09:25 And Colinares puts it away.

09:28 They weren't able to beat FU in the elimination round last year.

09:35 They couldn't extend this series.

09:37 But FU are down by two points.

09:42 Extend this match as their backs are against the wall.

09:47 FU had more excellent receptions compared to UST.

09:52 And they had a higher efficiency rate in attacking.

09:57 So they really just have to play it clean here in set number three.

10:01 Oh great save from the Luchado.

10:03 That ball is still alive.

10:06 Back with UST.

10:08 Yambao calls out the play.

10:10 They go to Omandal.

10:11 A high one.

10:14 Delicana.

10:15 Prudenciado again with the save.

10:17 Ibanez goes up.

10:18 Attacks and scores.

10:22 That's not the usual power.

10:25 Zone one was left open for the taking.

10:31 Cacau is back as the setter.

10:33 Delicana.

10:34 Able to get a point.

10:38 When Delicana finds his range in attacking, he will be deadly for FU.

10:45 And another point coming from Ibanez.

10:50 Four to two.

10:52 Good serve.

10:55 Cross court kill for Saavedra.

11:04 Yambao tosses it.

11:05 De Vega.

11:07 And that's a point.

11:14 They also have to serve hard.

11:18 So they can slow down the offense of UST.

11:22 That drops for Sherwin Omandal.

11:28 Nine to eight.

11:30 Cacau.

11:33 Saved by Yambao.

11:34 Second try still doesn't work for Saavedra.

11:37 Omandal.

11:40 Oh.

11:41 And that's a point.

11:42 Took a while before it dropped.

11:47 Eleven serving eight.

11:52 Delicana halts that run.

12:03 Cacau.

12:04 Upset to Delicana.

12:06 Another point.

12:08 Even if he was off the first and the second set, you have to give him another chance to bounce back.

12:16 In the past couple of times, as Omandal scores another one for UST.

12:21 He wasn't able to get a touch on that one.

12:24 Back set to Omandal.

12:26 Oh, Sherwin.

12:29 Coming alive here in set number three.

12:32 From Lyric Mendoza.

12:36 Combination.

12:37 Oh, nice play.

12:40 Also there.

12:44 Avila tosses it.

12:45 Ibanez with a spike and a score.

12:50 It's not easy here for Cacau to choose a point of attack.

12:57 Ibanez again.

12:59 And again and again.

13:01 Josh Ibanez.

13:04 23-21.

13:07 Cacau tosses it.

13:09 Delicana chance here for UST.

13:13 De Vega had to chase.

13:14 Ibanez set back.

13:16 And he serves for the match.

13:21 Cacau back sets.

13:24 Saavedra saves a point.

13:27 Here in set number three.

13:29 Hold on to your seats, folks.

13:33 Good first ball.

13:35 De Vega breaks the block.

13:37 It drops.

13:39 And a second match point.

13:41 It's in the hands of Dvojte De Vega.

13:44 25-24.

13:46 Cacau tosses it.

13:49 Delicana chance for UST.

13:52 No.

13:55 Ibanez, the push.

13:57 The pick up by Cacau.

13:59 Delicana again will attack.

14:01 Saved.

14:03 Free ball given up by De Vega.

14:06 Cacau, another one.

14:08 Back row.

14:09 Delicana.

14:14 And it's another point for FAU.

14:17 FAU is still alive.

14:19 Shrewett Omandale will serve.

14:23 Cacau tosses it.

14:26 Oh.

14:27 Went for the corner.

14:31 27-26.

14:39 Cacau pushes it.

14:41 Here it goes.

14:42 Ibanez.

14:43 Oh.

14:44 [cheers and applause]

14:47 [whistle]

14:49 [music playing]

14:53 (SINGING) Go, Bats.

14:54 Go, Bats.

14:56 Go, Bats.
