Right after that, the game went back and forth, with both teams trying t get an upper hand against each other. With Ezaki as their big gun, Shimo High managed to narrow the gap to two points so quickly, keeping the game as close as possible. As for Shirayuki High, while the new adjustment made their offense a bit slower, their overall performance also became more stable, ensuring their survival in the critical situation.
Right now, this game is not a pure volleyball game anymore. Just like how Tsunemori High against Kikugawa High went in the last game, during the last set, it was more of a psychological battle here, with the players fighting against themselves. Currently, most of them should've already been on their last breath, trying to survive the rest of the game. Their focus also started to decline, proven by the constant small mistakes that players from both teams kept making here.
