Japan regained form in the second set with Mayu Ishikawa, who was sent on late in the set, carrying the team forward together with their top scorer Yuki Ishii. However, a more balanced China maintained the lead from 2-2. Japan saved two match points but Yuan's spike killed the game 25-17.
"We had good performance in the five matches in Yokohama, showing on court what we had been practicing. Hope we can overcome our shortcomings and keep improving in the following matches," Zhu commented.
The two teams will have a two-day break before moving to Sapporo on Sunday when China plays Brazil while Japan hosts the United States.
