Faced with an Italian team of great quality, the Blues had to bow without playing the decisive third match of the European Championships of Padel in Rome. But this final bodes well for the next championships.

Padel Magazine : “Robin, what can we say after this kind of episode in the final of the European Championships of Padel ? "

Robin Haziza: "What predominates is sadness. We had a very nice meeting, we did not have much to regret. We had made a bet together to play team Johan (Bergeron) with Jeremy (Scatena) and Adrien (Maigret) with Benjamin (Tison). We were close to play with Bastien this decisive match. It was our goal, and for me an important moment to live. Play the third point here in Italy with Bastien against Mr Capitani who has hurt us so much in the past. We would have really liked to do this game but once again there is sadness but we have nothing to reproach ourselves for. "

PM: "Did you feel Bastien behind the scenes more stressed than on the field?"

Bastien Blanqué: "It's very, very disappointing. As Robin said we made a big bet last night the hotel, we all discussed. We put Johan and Jeremy in 2 and we put Adrien and Benjamin in 1. We thought they were going to make a huge game and lead the way but it did not work. In addition Johan and Jeremy lose 7 / 5 in the third set. If there was a decisive match with Robin, we knew very well that we could do something with his experience and I loved that kind of very hot atmosphere. But it's very hard to see them while we warm up screaming victory. It's a weird feeling because we do not play and we are disappointed. "

PM: “It's now or never to host the Padel ? "

RH: "That's what I said to Hubert (Picquier) at the end of the final, after the ceremony. In two years, we must organize them, it is at home we must win and it is here that we must beat the Italians clearly. "

PM: "Again bravo gentlemen, nothing to regret?"

BB: "No, we came to Italy, we tried this shot in the final. At three points we play this decisive match and there it would have been the fire. We know each other with Robin, we know we could have made a big game and give the victory to France but it's like that. We have to accept but it will pay on the next championships. "

PM: "Was there an anti-Capitani plan?"

RH: "No there was no anti-Capitani plan, I played it this week with Jeremy and Bastien is totally able to play in front of him. Obviously he is a known player and recognized by all but we clearly felt able to put a "down jacket".
