Yuki's return to the court seemed to be able to ignite Tsunemori's spirit once again. His presence also became the irreplaceable pillar of the team. On the front line, his superb game-reading ability managed to guide Hirano and Riku to set a wall to suppress the opponent's attack, and behind, he was able to help Kaede guard the back line, kept saving the spike that slipped from the blockers in front of them. He really showed his versatility here, frustrating the shit of his opponent.
The score gap itself also getting narrowed down by a lot. Currently, even though Kyoei still only needed one point to seal the first set, Tsunemori managed to catch up to the point they were only three points behind. While 21 – 24 seemed to be a safe score for Kyoei to win the set, considering the score before Yuki returned was 16 – 23, they couldn't help but feel anxious.
