The first set was very exciting, although it did not look that way at the beginning. Pomi Casalmaggiore quickly escaped to 14:4, but the hosts managed to reduce the margin to 18:16! Still, Manila squad could not go any further as Pomi then increased the pace and won the set by 25:19.  

In the 2nd set, the reigning European champions showed their full strength and double their lead quite easily – 25:15.

And then, when nobody expected,  PSL-F2 Logistics Manila played a stunning 3rd set. They were leading for the whole time, but simply failed to make the final strike. Despite being up ahead by 18:15, the hosts suddenly stopped and let Pomi Casalmaggiore tie the score at 20:20. Being a much more experienced team, the Italian club used that advantage in the final moments to finish the match by 25:21.
