MANILA, Philippines — Cignal eyes to remain unscathed while Capital1 Solar is out to prove that its giant upset of defending champion Petro Gazz last time was no fluke when they face off in today’s PVL Reinforced Conference at the PhilSports Arena.
The HD Spikers downed the ZUS Thunderbelles, 25-18, 25-27, 21-25, 25-22, Tuesday for Pool B lead with the Akari Chargers at 2-0.
It will not be a walk in the park though for the HD Spikers as the Solar Spikers are coming off a morale-boosting 26-24, 25-20, 25-18 shocker over the Angels, the biggest victory by the Milka and Mandy Romero-owned franchise since it was formed just six months back.
“Malaking bagay sa amin ‘yun, morale-booster sa mga bata ‘yun,” said Capital1 mentor Roger Gorayeb.
Russian dynamo Marina Tushova is expected to ride the crest of her magnificent 24-point effort and deliver another masterpiece for her team that has split its first two outings to start the conference.
Akari likewise shoots for a third win in a row as it tangles with a down but not out Petro Gazz at 3 p.m.
Meanwhile, ZUS Coffee and Choco Mucho seek a first win at 5 p.m. after falling in their first two assignments.
