Team China took their third straight victory at the FIVB Women's Volleyball Nations League against the Netherlands 3-1 (27-25, 23-25, 25-22, 25-20) in Nagoya on Saturday. 

Li Yingying was on fire for Team China with a match-high 27 points, including four aces and three blocks. Wang Yuanyuan scored 16 points, and Wang Yunlu added 14. 

Li, also China's top scorer in the previous two matches against Brazil and Germany, showed her confidence in China's perfect winning record, as they aim at wrapping up their campaign in Phase 1 of the tournament against hosts Japan on Sunday.  

Team China will join 7 other teams for the second phase in China's Hong Kong from June 13 to 18.

The Netherlands, who lost all three of their previous games, had every effort from the start to attack, but lacked a killer touch at crucial moments. 

"We were forced to make too many errors. But in the end, we managed to weather the storm," said China's head coach Cai Bin. 

"We know Japan is a good team, their defense is always very solid," Li said. "But our offence is better. I believe we can beat Japan for sure," she added.
