Let's go for the knockout stages of the APT Padel Tour Lisboa Open 2021, including several Portuguese who impressed at home!

The Portuguese in number

In front of their audience, the Portuguese players enjoyed yesterday in the sixteenth, so that they will be 8th today in the round of XNUMX.

The big performance of the day goes of course to Afonso Fazendeiro and Pedro Araújo, who dominated Fede Quiles and Matias Popovich after an epic match! For its premiere on the APT Padel Tour, the veteran Quiles saw his pair bow at the end of the suspense: 3/6 6/2 7/6!

In the “match of the legends” which we were able to attend yesterday in the evening, it is Spaniard Willy Lahoz and Portuguese Diogo Schaefer who dominated the Argentinian Mariano Lasaigues and Ramiro Nanni in two very hot sets: 7/6 7/6!

In the morning, Miguel Deus and Nuno Deus had argued their experience against the French Max Moreau and Jérôme Inzerillo: 7/5 6/4.

Shocks for the entry into the running of the top seeds

Today the 8 seeds make their entry into contention and we will be entitled to matches which promise to be explosive! European and South American pairs will cross swords and it promises to be hot! From 09:30 am, the Deus / Deus pair will be opposed to the seed number 7: Argentines Lucho Soliverez and Yain Melgratti.

Then these are the French Jérémy Scatena and Benjamin Tison who will face a major challenge: the Brazilians Julio Julianoti and Stefano Flores, seeded 3 and winners of the first Open of 2021!

Later in the day, two Argentina vs Portugal duels should get all the attention. First, Arce / Dal Bianco against Fazendeiro / Araújo, then Almada / Bejarano vs Pascual / Rocha. Very heavy!
