With all the momentum in the match, Cignal extended its margin after reaching match point, 24-11, as Ishie Lalongisip’s back-row attack ended the long rally.

Vanie Gandler would close the game out in the following play with a clean spike that ZUS Coffee failed to send over.

Ishie Lalongisip had another strong outing for the HD Spikers with a career-high 20 points on 18 attacks and two service aces.
