Victorious for Sanyo and Agustin Gutiérrez in the first round, Rafa Mendez and Javi Rico confirmed this Thursday against Edu Alonso and Alex Arroyo.
After creating a surprise, it is never easy to confirm. But Javi Rico and Rafa Mendez achieved it today at Milano Premier Padel P1.
However, nothing was won against the young Edu Alonso and Alex Arroyo, who were full of confidence after a particularly successful WPT Mexico Open.
But once again, the Spaniards were able to offer a very solid performance to defy the odds. They win 6/4 6/4 and qualify for the quarters, where they will find Lebron and Galan, who left only crumbs for “Pincho” Fernandez and Gonzalo Rubio: 6/1 6/1 in 44 minutes !
As you will see, Rico was quite happy to be qualified for the quarterfinals!
