And I had six pages kung paano sila lalaruin today. And I think that&#x27;s something new that I did today that really worked,&quot; Nierva said after her team whipped PLDT, 25-12, 25-23, 20-25, 25-22, on Tuesday at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City.</p><p>&quot;And nakita ko na effective talaga kapag aaralin mo, &#x27;yung intention mo is to really read the opponent. And mas madali gumalaw inside the court kapag alam mo or kilala mo at alam mo &#x27;yung galaw ng kalaban,&quot; she added.</p><div><a class="fr-green" href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/sports/volleyball/2024/12/3/pvl-chery-tiggo-snaps-pldts-3-game-win-streak-1900"><strong>READ: PVL: Chery Tiggo snaps PLDT&#x27;s 3-game win streak<br/></strong></a></div><p>Walking the talk, the Alas Pilipinas libero, showing her defensive prowess, was there to protect the ball from falling on their side of the taraflex with 17 excellent digs and 16 excellent receptions.</p><p>Included in that study is checking Fil-Canadian star spiker Savi Davison, said Nierva. However, she admitted that Davison is still hard to read because of her aggressiveness.</p><div><a class="fr-green" href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/sports/volleyball/2024/11/26/pvl-chery-tiggo-subdues-nxled-for-2nd-win-2030"><strong>READ: PVL: Chery Tiggo subdues Nxled for 2nd win<br/></strong></a></div><p>&quot;I actually went through their rotations. &#x27;Yung tendencies ni [Savi] Davison, ano &#x27;yung spiking tendencies niya. Though ang dami kong na-miss pa din kasi she&#x27;s very aggressive.&quot;</p><p>Davison still put up 27 points in the loss, built on 24 attacks and three blocks.</p><p>The National University (NU) product said that she also saw through Fiola Ceballos&#x27; habits inside the court, including the tendencies of the High Speed Hitters&#x27; services.</p><p>&quot;For example, kapag si [Fiola] Ceballos, it&#x27;s like nakita ko kung ano &#x27;yung gagawin talaga nila inside the court. And dahil alam ko na siya, ang dali kong i-lead &#x27;yung mga teammates ko. Also sa passing, &#x27;yung mga serves ng kalaban namin na PLDT. Alam ko na kung saan &#x27;yung percentage na pupunta &#x27;yung serves nila,&quot; Nierva said.</p><div><a class="fr-green" href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/11/12/pvl-chery-tiggo-overcomes-capital1-in-5-set-thriller-for-winning-start-2149"><strong>READ: PVL: Chery Tiggo overcomes Capital1 in 5-set thriller for winning start<br/></strong></a></div><p>Summarizing the lessons she learned after her report, Nierva preached about the importance of preparation.</p><p>&quot;&#x27;Yung learning ko from this game is to study talaga &#x27;yung kalaban. And it&#x27;s really about preparation. Kasi once you step inside the court, yun na yun eh. Kung ano &#x27;yung baon-baon mo. Kung ano &#x27;yung pinagtrabahuhan mo the past week. Yun &#x27;yung lalabas. So, every single day is very important.&quot;</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>RELATED VIDEO:</strong></div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABRP_Cc2oV_dHxZf&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script>
