The day the cat almost crunched the wolf!
The 2nd quarter-final of the Estrella Damm Valencia Open between Navarro / Lebron and Chingotto / Tello was by far one of the most intense matches of the current season.
The pair N ° 2 world begins the match by offering the 1st set against Argentines very serious and determined to make fall the Spaniards on their premises. The 2nd set takes a very different turn from the first with a large domination of Tello and Chingotto in all the phases of play. The reduction of the volume of play on Lebron obliges him to take risks and to create spaces.
It was at tie break in the 3rd set that the Spanish pair won by saving several match points.
An epic match, which the “Valencianos” will not soon forget!
