The win ultimately served as a preview before both teams square off again for the bronze medal on Monday, December 9. Through a heated sequence that involved a successful challenge, an Indonesian service error and a Ces Molina hit, the Philippines actually managed to eke out a 26-25 set point in response. However, the reigning SEA Games silver medalists still stole the set with a 3-0 blitz.
