Chery Tiggo enters into its match against Galeries Tower on Thursday with one goal in mind – securing a swift, decisive victory to clinch the last spot in the semifinals of the Premier Volleyball League All-Filipino Conference at the Philsports Arena in Pasig.
With an 8-2 record, the Crossovers only need a point to dash any hopes PLDT may have of advancing to the next round.
With the first three semis berths already secured by Choco Mucho (9-2), Petro Gazz and Creamline, which also tote 8-2 records, Chery Tiggo aims to join them with a victory against Galeries Tower in their 4 p.m. showdown. Even in the unlikely event of a five-set match, the Crossovers’ superior tally points would still net them a spot in the post-prelims stage of the season-opening tournament of the league organized by Sports Vision.
Coach Kungfu Reyes has transformed Chery Tiggo into a formidable force after a shock shutout loss to Farm Fresh, showcasing its dominance in recent matches. Despite the possibility of resting key players, like sisters Eya and EJ Laure, Mylene Paat, Ara Galang, Aby Maraño or Cza Carandang, the team still boasts a deep bench ready to step up when needed.
