PLDT battles tough Bella Belen-led Capital1 in PVL All-Filipino tourney
Games on Thursday
(FilOil Arena)
4 p.m. – PLDT vs Capital1
6:30 p.m. – ZUS vs Akari
LIKE ITS sibling rival Cignal, PLDT is following a path heavily reliant on their faith in one another.
And the PLDT High Speed Hitters hope to continue to thread the same pathway and remain unbeaten as it clashes with a beastly Bella Belen and the unpredictable Capital1 Solar Spikers on Thursday in the PVL All-Filipino Conference at the FilOil Arena.
“It’s a big thing that we’re an intact team, it was the reason we were solid in our first game,” said PLDT coach Rald Ricafort after their emphatic 25-22, 25-17, 25-23 spanking of 10-time champion Creamline a week ago.
PLDT tackles in its 4 p.m. duel a Capital1 side that split its first two outings following a win over ZUS Coffee and a setback to Nxled.
A win for the Manny V. Pangilinan franchise will send them to joint second with Nxled (2-0) and closer to its sister squad Cignal, who like the former, stuck with its old squad and skipped joining the free agent spending binge like the rest.
Savi Davison cut like a knife on that one after unleashing a monster 26-point performance, half of which came in the opening set when PLDT set the tone for the surprisingly straight-set win.
“I’m working a lot on my patience and how to wait and I hope to keep calm again as we try to do this coming forward,” said Ms. Davison.
Meanwhile, Akari (0-1) and ZUS (0-2) gun for a first win as they face off at 6:30 p.m. — Joey Villar
