Yesterday Gonzalo Alfonso and Juani De Pascual performed well in their first tournament together with the victory over Chiostri/Melgratti in the semi-finals of the APT Padel Torreon Open Tower.

But at the end of the meeting, Alfonso, who faced his former teammate Fede Chiostri, had mixed feelings.

“I didn't enjoy the whole match. I really like Fede and at times I wanted him to win.

It was very weird and it disturbed me during the first set. The final score does not reflect the game.”

Indeed, after a first set won 6/3 by Chiostri and Melgratti, it was De Pascual and Alfonso who dominated the rest of the proceedings, with a 6/1 6/0 inflicted on their opponents.

In any case, we see with Gonzalo's statement that it can be very difficult to play against a friend in padel, and that it takes a lot of mental work not to let emotions take over.

In any case, we will find Alfonso and De Pascual in the final tonight, against Arce and Dal Bianco, the number 1 on the circuit. A meeting to follow just below from 19:00 p.m.:
