Trailing from 7-6 in the third set, Yuan Xinyue's serve powered the Rio 2016 champions to a 6-0 run which greatly boosted the morale. Andrea Drews, Chiaka Ogbogu and captain Larson kept challenging China's defense to keep the suspense and forced coach Lang Ping to call China's first timeout after China's advantage was narrowed to two points at 19-17. Team USA saw a chance to catch up following two thunderous spikes by Drews, chasing the deficit to a single point down by 22-21, but three wonderful attacking plays by Yuan, Zhu and Zhang enable China to clinch the victory for China 25-22.
After the commanding win in such a match that was believed to decide the eventual champions, China lead the 12-participating teams with a 7-0 record.
China will play Kenya in its last match in Sapporo on Tuesday.
