Padel World Press .- A day of excitement and surprises at the Lisboa Open. The tracks of the Lisboa Racket Center vibrated with an intense day of competition, in which it was demonstrated that equality is increasing in a competition that does not stop growing.
To begin, the locals Miguel and Nuno Deus, who entered the Draw through the Previous Phase, traced their duel against Yain Melgratti - Luciano Soliverez. The Argentines, who even served in the tenth game of the second set to achieve victory, were overcome by the rection of their rivals and ended up losing 3-6, 7-6 and 6-2.
Those who did start with a firm step were the Brazilians Julio Julianoti - Stefano Flores who, very solid in all facets of the game, defeated the French Benjamin Tison - Jeremy Scatena by 6-4 and 6-2. For their part, the Argentines Santiago Frugoni - Matías del Moral, after a somewhat irregular start to the campaign, seem to recover their best version. Despite giving up the first set, they turned the situation around and left the second seeds on the road: Nicolás Egea - Pablo Barrera (3-6, 7-5 and 6-0).
In turn, the 'legend' Willy Lahoz and the Portuguese Diogo Schaefer showed great harmony on the field and eliminated the 'Maxis', Cejas and Sánchez Blasco by 6-3 and 6-4.
In the afternoon session, the script was as planned. Alfonso-Chiostri prolonged their good moment and eliminated Santellan - Chozas (6-3 and 6-3) while Dal Bianco - Arce cut the dream of the local Fazendeiro - Araujo with a double worked 6-4.
Almada - Bejarano resolved with more ease than expected a complex debut against Rocha - Pascoal (7-6 and 6-3). The sad note of the day was the absence of the number 1 of Portugal, Miguel Oliveira, due to the injury of his teammate Cayetano Rocafort
On Friday June 18, starting at 12:00, an intense day of competition will begin. In the first turn, the Brazilians Julianoti - Flores will face the Portuguese brothers Miguel and Nuno Deus. Next, it will be Frugoni - Del Moral who will play the semis against Lahoz - Schaefer.
Starting at 18:00, the most anticipated clash of the day will be seen: Alfonso - Chiostri against Arce - Dal Bianco while, to finish, Bejarano - Almada will face JP Flores - Cunha.
All the commitments of the quarter round of the Lisboa Open will be played on the Central Court with live transmission on the official channel of APT Padel Tour on Youtube.
