The qualifiers would end to define in words the great show that four of the great stars of the World Padel Tour Circuit offered on the Central Court of the Palau de Esports Son Moix… In an exciting duel, Juan and Cristian defeated 3-6, 6- 3 and 6-4 to Paquito Navarro-Sanyo Gutiérrez.
Padel World Press .- The first wants to return by his privileges, to prove again that he is still one of the best players in the history of this sport; the second is a magician, who turns every ball that comes out of his shovel into pure fantasy. Increasingly blended, the two Mar del Plata players continue to take steps forward in their challenge to improve positions in the WPT Ranking and become one of those 'dominant and dominating' pairs.
They know that it will not be easy, that because they are out of the list of the top four seeds they will have to face very complicated duels from the beginning of each tournament ... But they face that challenge with enthusiasm, with confidence, with the certainty that they are doing things well and working in the right direction.
Just a few weeks ago they reached their first final. It was at the Estrella Damm Barcelona Masters, where they fell in the clash of fight for the title against Fernando Belasteguín-Pablo Lima (6-2 and 6-3). Now, in a real duel of titans, they crossed paths again with Paquito-Sanyo's and, as happened in the semifinals of the Ciudad Condal test, they also won.
Without a doubt, it was one of the most anticipated commitments of the quarterfinal round. The fans who gathered at Son Moix expected to see a great show but, of course, what they could not even imagine is that they were going to witness one of the best matches of all those that have been played this season ...
The overflowing talent, the waste of unimaginable resources, the impossible actions ... The four contenders were completely 'emptied' to offer viewers one of those great games that they will soon forget.
Paquito's claw and race, the endless quality of Juan Martín, the genius of Sanyo and the tactical intelligence of Cristian, together with his prodigious doll, were some of the most outstanding notes of a sublime commitment, which was solved by small details and for the greater success that the current 5 number of the world showed in the decisive moments, which led them to win by 3-6, 6-3 and 6-4.
The rest of the matches of the day
In the clash that raised the curtain on this intense and exciting afternoon of competition Maxi Grabiel and Ramiro Moyano qualified for their first semifinal of the campaign after beating one of the 'sensations' of this tournament: Gaby Reca-Juan Lebrón.
With firm step, the two members of the Vibor-A Team were imposed by 6-2 and 6-3 and already know that their next rivals will be Fernando Belasteguín-Pablo Lima. No margin for surprise, they confirmed the forecasts and beat Aday Santana-Willy Lahoz by 6-2 and 6-4.
To finish, Juani Mieres-Miguel Lamperti did not take his foot off the accelerator at any time and, with authority, defeated Tito Allemandi-Agustín Gómez Silingo for 6-3 and 6-2.
On Saturday, 25 in June and from 17: 00 hours, the two matches will be played in which the name of the qualifiers for the grand final will be defined.
