Something similar happened in the second set, where the 4-3 became 7-3 and 11-5 with back-to-back counterattacks, but Markopoulos’ block brought the result to 11-9. Despite being back at -4 (15-11), they equalized at 16-16, but at 22-21 Kulerkan lost to a tie and Mercado finished the set 25-22.

In the third set, Aris led 8-2, 11-3 and 15-15, but AOM reduced to 15-11 but couldn’t get any closer.
