‘Na-outsmart kami’: Bella Belen offers no excuses in defeat against FEU, vows to give it all in decider
National University star Bella Belen admitted that the Lady Bulldogs felt more pressure than Far Eastern University in their UAAP Season 86 women's volleyball Final Four match.
Belen acknowledged that NU's tension led to miscommunications and errors, contributing to their 25-23, 25-17, 25-23 loss to FEU.
She stated that the team was complacent, having previously beaten FEU in both elimination rounds.
NU committed 25 errors and struggled with their attacks, with Vange Alinsug and Alyssa Solomon managing only eight and seven kills, respectively.
Belen, who scored 12 points for NU, noted that the team did not enjoy the game, resulting in their errors and excessive eagerness.
Despite the loss, Belen vowed that the team will give their all in the do-or-die match.
