Italy’s star opposite Paola Egonu produced a massive match high of 29 points, including two kill blocks. She spiked at a 50% success rate in attack. Middle blocker Anna Danesi added 12 points, including four stuffs. Outside hitter and captain Miryam Sylla also finished with 12 points, including three blocks. Outside Li Yingying was China’s most prolific player with 14 points.

The points at the start of the second set came in bunches. Lubian fired two aces and forced an overpass in between, which Danesi landed, within a 3-0 run. However, China responded with four points in a row to take the lead for the first time in the match, but it was the last time in this set. Italy took their turn with a five-point run to gain control with an 8-4 advantage. But then a tough battle unfolded. With opposite Gong Xiangyu leading the way, China gradually closed the gap and eventually levelled the score at 15-15 on an off-the-block shot by outside Wang Yunlu. However, Italy immediately broke away again with four points in a row. A brilliant Egonu delivered her eighth successful swing of the set to bring in set point at 24-21, before a Chinese serve into the net closed it off at 25-22 to double Italy’s lead.

With Wang putting points away early into the third set, including an off-the-net ace for 5-2, China swiftly took a 7-2 lead after a series of four consecutive points. Everything seemed to be working well for the Asian team through the rest of the set, including the abundant errors by the opponents. Completely dominating on the court, China opened a huge gap. Another ace, this time by Li, brought in set point at 24-13, and then a successful video challenge revealed that Egonu’s attack landed a millimetre out of bounds for another unforced error that shaped up the final set score at 25-13.

The fourth set was quite competitive through 7-7, but after that Italy ran off with a wide lead, extending it to 14-9 on a four-point series. Egonu kept the fire burning at the net and delivered as many as nine points, including the match winner, towards an emphatic 25-17 close.
