"And once again the ambient phrase was fulfilled ... 'Padel plays 4 and Bela always wins'. As real as I lived in the quarterfinals of the Granada Open, in a spectacular setting and after three hours with passages of 'pádel champagne', as Don Emilio Forcher would say ". Do not miss this great article by Óscar Solé.
Padel World Press .- Bela and Lima became giants in those moments where they always appear, when the 'popes burn'. They had chances of breaks in almost all the serves of their opponents in the first two sets but it was not until the twelfth game of the second set when they got it.
They won, after a comeback mark of the house, when Miguel Lamperti y Juani Mieres they had the match in their hands with 4-5 and came out in their favor in the third set. Two breakages of service followed already semifinals.
But I'm not going to bore you with lyrics because if you saw it, there are plenty of words and, if you did not see it, the best thing is to look for it on YouTube ... It's worth it.
I'm just going to dedicate these last lines to a character that deserves the recognition of all the paddle lovers: Miguel Lamperti.
Along with Paquito Navarro, are the two players who raise more passions in any track of the universe. The 'Lampertimanía' takes more than a decade. Since landing in Spain, he contributed something different to the Professional Circuit, in addition to that unique smash. And that 'something different' we all enjoy in the Sports Palace because the player of the Team NOX raised to the rostrum with each stroke and with each gesture as, when back in the year 2008, hit "little pechito with pechito" with Mati Díaz.
He was in his sauce, as is usually said, with the entire public surrendered at his feet ... With 'Príncipe Mieres' in his best version of drive, they had the number 1 on the ropes. They deserved to win but they collapsed at the worst moment . Lamperti asked for Physio's attention; Beyond the physical exhaustion, he was affected mentally, remembering that break in the tenth game of the third set.
Miguel should have come out on litters and through the front door, like bullfighters, but he kicked and punched a door, the image that we did not want to see. Surely the next day, when he woke up, he was still chewing his anger at the defeat and his head will not stop asking his heart: 'What happened?' ... He must only think that once again he had the virtue of driving the three thousand spectators crazy that we were in the pavilion and one hundred thousand who saw it on Streaming.
I wish the Circuit had 10 'Lampertis'. The paddle needs to be lived like that, with passion, with madness and that's why, in my interior, I did not stop screaming PUNTAKOOO... Thanks Miguel for making us live like this the paddle and thanks to the four for the great game.
