Best Trio in Volleyball History - Yuji Nishida, Yuki Ishikawa & Ran Takahashi

Yes! That has gone to Spiketown. He's creating a whole new city. Oh my goodness, Denani's just thinking, oh I'm glad it didn't hit me. That one was out of the stadium. Sake Oil has come on for the 9. Right touch. Oh my goodness, if Ishikawa had read that a little better he might have had a full swing on that. That would have been embarrassing for Sanchez. It wasn't in the end though and it's a point for Japan. Nishida bringing the heat. Sending the crowd crazy yet again. When you're able to serve like that, it just turns things around. Another big swing. That's hit very early by Ren Takahashi. Touchdown by Sakita. Right blocking. Another chance here for Nishida. It's phenomenal. Lima with his head in his hands. Palacios is looking at the line here. This swing is right in between. They've gone after Sanchez again. They've stacked him over that side and Sakita knows he's there. He's putting Nishida against him. A serve. It's a transition here for Japan. They've got an attack opportunity. And then it's just hammered away. It's so fast. So quick the arm comes down. You've got no chance to react. Really good dig by Yamamoto. And a roller this time from Nishida. Argentina players are there sat on their heels. They're thinking here comes a big swing. Here comes the boom. But no. Nishida just cuts it. And gets the point. We've got four players moving around Sakita and then coming in on the pipe attack from the middle of the back row. You've got this. And look at that. Just making adjustments all the time. Trying to get touches, which Argentina do. They can't guide it back to it. Sakita's keeping his arm where he is. What a great up by Sakita. Power tip. That will work. It's allowed. Oh yes. Phenomenal play. And now it's a match point for Japan. Argentina look to have control of that rally. Looked like they were going to get the ball back. Scramble, scramble. Block out. Poblano-Shikawa. With the heater. And it's an ace serve for Nishida. He's thrown everything into this. And then some. Fast ball. You've got to be kicking. It's the fastest of fast balls. Palacios couldn't deal with it. 118 kilometres an hour. It's an urgency. It might come back. Oh, it won't come back. Desperate effort by Luciano Vicentin. Palacios made the touch, but it just could not be recycled. Just to pull on. Every time Nishida has a snake, he's there to be hit. And it gets hit. And it's properly hit. Even by putting Sanchez out on the other side, they know where he is. So Sanchez is trying to hide in the block. Oh, goodness. Another big swing. Both teams now really delivering some heavy blows. This is one of the big three lately. Just picking up days. He's got one, two, many quarters in. Cross to the middle. That one didn't work. Well played, Nishida. Oh, I just give up. I have got no more words. Spike Tang doesn't do that one justice. Gets himself ready. It's going to rain some pain on Argentina. Oh, chicken wing. Move that side. No, that's it. So we're going to have a look at that. They look to be... That's miles ahead. They've passed pretty much. Got the blocks there again. Got that side. No, that's better. That's more like it for Ishikawa. That's what he's got to do. He's got to go over Sanchez. That will do. Inside my own world of make-believe. Kids... What a shame. It won't come back. It was well read by Denani. But now Japan beginning to mix it up a bit. Argentina guessing. They're not too sure. You can see how Denani sat for that. Here comes the big hit. Makes a good adjustment. But no one else can get to it. Ace serve again. Ishikawa. Big hit. Ishikawa. Side out Japan. Wow. There's threats everywhere, isn't there? If it's not Nishida, it's Ishikawa. If it's not Ishikawa, it's Yamauchi. Or Tomington. Pretty slick really cross court there. Well done.
