Juan Tello and Fede Chingotto won a terrific final at the 2018 Paris Challenger at Casa Padel facing the n ° 1 seed of the event: Ramiro Moyano and Luciano Capra. These 2 Argentinian pairs confirm that Argentina seems to be one step ahead of Spain for men. We will know more in a week with the world.

The final was very hotly contested, like the first set where the 4 players will try to limit mistakes which allows us to have very long exchanges. From the first points, the game is oriented in a diagonal between the left-hander Capra and Chingotto. Ramiro on one side and Juan on the other, will try to intercept the chances to complete the point. In this game, it is especially Juan Tello who will manage to get a few PAR 3. Victory 7/5 in the first set in favor of the youngest.

In the second set, it was off again for a Capra / Chingotto diagonal. The left-hander tries to hurt in his diagonal, but Fede Chingotto achieves a very good part by blocking the opposing attacks with in particular his famous bandeja still embarrassing. Moyano / Capra managed to win the second set in the tie break.

In the 3rd set, surprisingly, the Moyano / Capra pair lost their feet by making some unusual mistakes, certainly due to fatigue. It must be said that the exchanges are long! The legs are very stressed. And Tello / Chingotto wins this third set and the match.

Federico Chingotto / Juan Tello and Ramiro Moyano / Luciano Capra: 7/5 6/7 6/2

It is the first trophy on the circuit of World Padel Tour for Tello / Chingotto and a second defeat in France for Ramiro Moyano after that lost to the Challenger de Marseille / Aix-en-Provence to WinWin Padel last year alongside Gabriel.

Victory so very encouraging for young Argentineans. Direction Bilbao stage for all players.
