China eased past Germany 3-0 on Monday evening to set up a final against defending champions Brazil in the women's volleyball final of the 7th Military World Games.

Olympic champion Yuan Xinyue reaped 12 kills, two stuffs and five aces for a game-high 19 points to lead the Chinese women to a 25-12, 25-8, 25-9 victory over Germany in the semifinal with Liu Yanhan and Gao Yi adding 12 apiece.

"I am in good shape today. I am happy that I was able to grasp my opportunities to attack and score. Hopefully I can do better in the next match," said Yuan.

The Chinese women, who had finished runners-up to Brazil in the last Military World Games four years ago, swept Brazil 3-0 in their preliminary Group A encounter on Thursday.

"We get ready for any changes and challenges on the court and will try our best to play in final," added Yuan.

Earlier on Monday, Brazil rallied past the DPRK 19-25, 25-14, 25-23, 25-16 in the semifinals to secure a final place, which is slated for Tuesday evening.
