Reversed Sweep DENIED! Coach Sherwin REAL TALK sa Creamline Cool Smashers? BADTRIP Moment? Alyssa Valdez INJURED! Ponggay Pons POG!
The PVL 2025 showdown between Creamline Cool Smashers (CCS) and the resilient PLDT High-Speed Hitters kept fans on the edge of their seats. What seemed like a dominant start for Creamline turned into a nerve-wracking battle as PLDT attempted a daring reverse sweep. Despite Alyssa Valdez’s injury scare and struggles in the latter sets, CCS secured the victory. However, Coach Sherwin Meneses was visibly displeased with certain moments, giving fans a rare glimpse of his frustrations.
Alyssa Valdez INJURED: The Turning Point?
Valdez, the heart of Creamline’s offense, landed awkwardly on her knee during the third set after diving for a defensive save. Although she briefly stayed on the court, it was clear she was in discomfort.
Coach Sherwin pulled Valdez out as a precaution, stating post-game:
“Health ni Alyssa ang priority namin. Di pwedeng pilitin. But knowing her, she’ll push through kung kaya pa.”
Her absence in the fourth set allowed PLDT to gain momentum and force a deciding fifth set. Fans flooded social media with concern over Valdez’s condition, hoping this wouldn’t be a repeat of her past injuries.
PLDT’s Near Comeback: Ponggay Pons Steps Up as POG!
With Valdez sidelined, PLDT capitalized on Creamline’s weakened rotation. Ponggay Pons delivered a stellar performance, scoring 19 points, including clutch plays during critical moments.
“Laban lang talaga. Pagod na kami pero gusto naming ipakita na kaya namin,” Pons said after being named Player of the Game (POG).
Her aggressive attacks and excellent defense nearly sealed a reverse sweep for PLDT.
Coach Sherwin’s REAL TALK: “Hindi Ako Masaya!”
Despite winning the match, Coach Sherwin Meneses expressed his dissatisfaction during the post-game interview.
“Panalo nga pero di ako masaya. Walang urgency sa defense at nag-relax nang maaga. Di pwede yan sa playoffs!”
His blunt remarks highlighted concerns about complacency creeping into the team’s mindset. Fans praised his honesty, acknowledging that Creamline needed to maintain their championship form heading into the semifinals.
Game Highlights
First Two Sets Domination: Creamline displayed textbook volleyball, with Jema Galanza and Tots Carlos leading the charge.
PLDT’s Comeback Attempt: Powered by Ponggay Pons and Mika Reyes, PLDT forced Creamline into errors, pushing the match to five sets.
Final Set Redemption: Jeanette Panaga and Jema Galanza regained control, sealing the win for CCS with crucial blocks and spikes.
Looking Ahead for CCS
With Alyssa Valdez’s condition under monitoring, the Cool Smashers face uncertainty as the playoffs draw near. The team must find ways to maintain composure and adapt without relying solely on Valdez’s leadership.
On the other hand, PLDT showed they are serious contenders, capable of challenging any top-tier team. Their chemistry and resilience make them a formidable threat moving forward.
Conclusion
While Creamline survived the scare, Coach Sherwin’s frustrations are a wake-up call for the squad. With Valdez potentially sidelined, it’s time for other stars to shine. As for PLDT, Ponggay Pons proved they are a force to be reckoned with.
