According to F2 Logistics coach Ramil de Jesus, \u201cAfter Game One, [he] told [his players] during training that the loss is done,\u201d saying in Filipino, \u201cThat doesn\u2019t matter anymore, so if you want to redeem yourselves, let\u2019s redeem ourselves. I set that and it worked in Game Two.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

He added<\/span>, \u201cI told them that if I didn\u2019t know them, I would believe that [Game 1] is all you could give. At practice, we only corrected a bit, like blocking.\u201d De Jesus even shared that the team\u2019s motivation was the abundant live audience that was present at the Mall of Asia (MOA) Arena, who braved the holiday traffic just to see them play. \u201cWell of course, the kids were very emotional,\u201d he shared, \u201cI told them that everyone wearing yellow here, those are the people counting on you and supporting you. So, let\u2019s not have an embarrassing performance.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

With their win, F2 Logistics interrupted the Blaze Spikers 13-0 undefeated run. The two teams will have their final shot at the PSL AFC championship title during Game 3, which is happening on Thursday, December 20 at the Filoil Flying V Arena in San Juan.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
