In the second set, Japan began to play improved volleyball, opening 7-3 lead. But it wasn't long before China found their fast attacking and their high blocking game again and tied the set up at 12-12.

 

Kana Oyama scored all Japan's last four points at the final five minutes but could not stop China close the set at 25-22.

 

Falling behind with two sets, Japanese side started more evenly in the third. The score were tied from 1-1 to 15-15 before China started to gain the ascendancy.

 

With Wang Lina's three points, China launched a 5-0 run to take advantage. A wonderful spike from Zhang Ping gave China a 23-19 advantage and her serve made China finish the game with 25-20.
