In a heated match, Jérémy Scatena and Adria Mercadal lost on the wire against the Spaniards from the qualifications Sager Nagel and Cordoba.
We expected a shock on the Philippe Chatrier between two pairs very close in the standings, and we got it! Under a strong heat, the spikers Jérémy Scatena and Ignacio Sager Nagel had a great time!
After a first set won by the Franco-Spanish pair, the Spaniards responded in the second set. The third set gave us a lot of suspense. Unfortunately for the French public, while Scatena and Mercadal pushed to 5/6 40A and we saw them potentially leaving to win 7/5, Pablo Ayma's players totally cracked in the tie-break. No points won for Jérémy and Adria who were under attack from Cordoba and Sager Nagel. The latter validate their ticket for the sixteenth thanks to this success 4/6 6/3 7/6.
Jérémy Scatena was inevitably disappointed at the end of the match.
Unfortunately, the tricolors are at 0/4 in this Roland-Garros of padel. Bastien Blanqué and Adrien Maigret will immediately try to reverse the trend !
