🇯🇵 JPN vs. 🇦🇷 ARG - Highlights Week 2 | Men's VNL 2023

Argentina in the white and blue serving, Japan in red receiving. Week two of the volleyball nation's league. Middles are there to be used. That Rosso has been compared to him. It's quite a big last step as if he was trying to play catch-up. Chance here for Japan. Can do, so can we. Just not quite the structure they need. Good serve. Nice. Pilonsky whipping through the ball. Nice. Is that in? It is in. Tsukita's left it. Thought it was going to go out. A bit of momentum, maybe a bit of rhythm for Argentina. Take into the next set. Flies in. That's something else. Tsukita's at full strength. Shikawa with the power but it's dealt with by Dinani. No dealing with that one though. Not too sure where that had gone. Now they know. Right down on the floor in front of them. Good work from Lima. All that fast you have to set your angle early. You can't chase it. Top serve. Love it. Just doing what they have to do here to try and get into this. Another cracking serve. This is free ball. Oh and it's such a well-placed ball over that Argentina have now got a chance to get their side out. Oh come on Yamamoto. Down to 22-20 up. Oh good set. Maybe just a tad too tight though in the end. Well played on Addero. For Argentina. Same change they made earlier on. Kutsev into the front row. It doesn't matter. It doesn't stop. What a performance from Japan so far. They take the set 25-22. They lead Argentina. It's a good serve. Kutsev to keep Argentina in it and he does that. Oh goodness me. Onodera has grabbed the net. Frustration. He's nearly taken. He's taken Sakita out. Just watch. Oh how did that go over? Vicentin. In on the ball. Somewhere. Excellent. Oh Ramos added a little bit of extra to that one. They have switched. Sakita staying out wide. Doesn't matter. Polonsky. Magnificent swing. They'd normally be hitting on the position four ball. It's a quality pass. And then Ran can come in and give that. Have a good ball in. Miura made sure of it. Somehow that's crept over. Well played Vicentin to get something on that. Was ready. Another chance here for Japan. What a pass. Well played Dinani. He might get the swing he wanted. Polonsky. And Miura can run. He's struggling a little bit at four at the moment. Massive block from Ramos and Lima. Massive serve. Massive point for Argentina. And because they haven't had a run that pipe has happened. They kind of say well you don't need to worry about it. Let's just make sure we get good ball out to the wings and try and run the middle. They need to figure this out pretty quickly or we're going to five sets. Touch. Well that net's going up and down like a yo-yo. Someone must have touched it. Good touch. It's a huge serve. That'll be pinged away. And just like that. Another good serve. Well it's hit the floor even with Vicentin doing the splits. Ishikawa. Top touch. Top play. There's a real chance here for Japan. Ran's on the move. So to Miura. Vicentin. Can he do something from serving? Not bad. It could be great. It is great. They've got one back. They're two behind. Ran with the serve. Great ball Dinani. Great swing Ramos. Still game on. Still Argentina fighting. For the match. All over Ishikawa. It's another victory for Japan. They are 8-0. What an incredible volleyball Nations League they're having.
