As attacker Angamuthu’s spike went past the baseline in the fifth and deciding set, the Bengaluru Torpedoes team erupted in delight. For, it was a magnificent triumph as the Torpedoes fought back valiantly from two sets down to script a 14-16, 7-15, 16-14, 15-9, 15-13 win over the defending champion Ahmedabad Defenders in a Prime Volleyball League Super 5 match here on Tuesday.
After the defeat to Delhi Toofans the other day, it was important for Bengaluru to win and stay alive in the Super 5.
In fact, the win was engineered by its star player T. R. Sethu, who produced some telling smashes when his team need them the most, and blocker P. V. Jishnu.
