A tight match

The first set offered a very high  level of play with two very solid pairs and no breaks conceded. The intensity was at its maximum, especially in the net duels where  Galán acted imperiously by hitting numerous winning volleys. The tie-break ultimately went in favor of the Spanish-Argentine duo, who were more composed in the key moments.

The start of the second set saw a  moment of fright  : upon recovering the ball,  Leo Augsburger injured his knee remaining on the ground for several minutes before the physiotherapist intervened. While the match seemed compromised, the Argentinian eventually resumed play, visibly hampered. The incident momentarily disrupted the rhythm of Galán and Chingotto, who were broken back. But the tournament leaders quickly regained control: Augsburger, hampered, committed numerous unforced errors, allowing  Galan and Chingotto  to escape definitively and conclude 7/6 6/4.

Dog  one set lost since the start of the tournament Galán and Chingotto are advancing confidently towards the final. In the absence of  Tapia and Coello they fully embrace their role of  big favorites  and know they are expected.

A clash scheduled against Yanguas and Nieto

In the semi-final, they will meet  Mike Yanguas and Coki Nieto  (TS3), gamers  Momo Gonzalez and Fran Guerrero  at the end of a  marathon fight  (6/0 6/7 7/5).

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 !
