MANILA, Philippines—Team Rebisco dropped its second game after losing to Uzbek club AGMK, 24-26, 25-23, 25-18, 25-19, in the 2021 AVC Asian Men’s Club Volleyball Championship Saturday at Terminal 21 in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand.
The Filipinos opened strong with a hard-fought first set win but the Uzbeks found a way to get the upper hand for their first victory so far.
AGMK was well on its way to taking the fourth set with a 23-17 lead but the Filipinos mustered two straight points to get to within four, 23-19.
Ysay Marasigan, however, put AGMK at match point after he hit net and Joshua Umandal followed it up with a net touch giving the Uzbeks the win.
Team Rebisco dropped to 0-2 also following an opening day defeat to Iran club Sirjan Foulad in Group B on Friday.
