A first round mastered by Tapia and Coello

The match begins with a clear domination of the world number 1, Tapia and Coello. Thanks to good exchange management, relentless smashes and a well-honed strategy, they win the first set (6/3). Galán and Chingotto, although solid, struggle to find solutions against their opponent.

A turning point in the second set

Everything changed from the middle of the second set. Alejandro Galán raises his level of play in the offensive plot, imposing a more intense pace and putting pressure on Tapia and Coello. Agustín Tapia's cross-field lob, often used to push Galán away from the attacking zone, loses its effectiveness when Galán finds angles that are difficult to defend.

After a tense tie-break, Chingotto and Galán turn the tide and pocket the second set (7/6), resetting the counters to zero.

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
