That was at the beginning at the Chapter 34:

"At these words Harry remembered, as though from a former life, the 
dueling club at Hogwarts he had attended briefly two years ago. ... 
All he had learned there was the Disarming 
Spell, "Expelliarmus". . . and what use would it be to deprive 
Voldemort of his wand, even if he could, when he was surrounded by 
Death Eaters, outnumbered by at least thirty to one?"
