The favorites will have been heckled in these semi-finals of the APT Padel Tour Master Final! After the defeat of Arce and Dal Bianco, Tolito and Torre did not come far from elimination!

After flying over the group stage, Leo Aguirre and Agustin Torre faced Brazilians Lucas Cunha and Joao Flores last night in the semi-finals of the APT Master Final.

Favorites on paper, the Argentines were challenged from the start by a Brazilian team who played all the shots thoroughly. After an exchange of breaks, the two men who finished 3rd with their country in Qatar won the first round: 7/5.

On their way, Cunha and Flores took the break from the start in the second set. We were starting to think that it was clearly not the day for the pairs who had finished first in the group stage.

But the Argentines, pushed by the public, reacted quickly, in turn taking the service of their opponents on the next game. The set continued in a very balanced way and only a tie-break could decide the two pairs. On a long line passing from Tolito, the Argentines managed to take the mini-break at 5/4, to win the set two points later.

In a third round also stuck, Aguirre and Torre manage to win 5/7 7/6 6/4 and reach the final of this Master Final. Tolito even allowed himself to finish with an insolent cushioning, a point that you can find HERE !

Leo Aguirre cry Rosario APT Master Final 2021

Today, it is therefore two pairs of group 1 who will compete to try to afford the title. Undefeated, Tolito and Torre will be favorites, especially since they beat Melgratti and Oliveira in straight sets (7/5 6/2) during their clash in the group stage. But beware, the Portuguese and the Argentine seem to have regained all their confidence, so it's a high-level revenge that we should see today in Rosario.

Start of the match at 11:30 a.m. local time (15:30 p.m. in France).
