Blank game of Murcia,
SERIES OF 10-0 IN POINTS from 1-3 of the tiebreak.
Saca Alcaraz, second set. If she was able in the first set even though it cost her a lot, the trend must be very positive right now. It must go further. The Canadian will hesitate.
Before the tiebreak, Auger 24 points won from 28 serving; Alcaraz, 29 of 44. Without break balls, more to the limit Carlitos, until the moment of truth arrived. He responded, he did not concede anything, while the Canadian did fail. Mindset, concentration. The No. 1 above No. 13. The 19-year-old stronger than the 22-year-old.
MORE THAN ONE HOUR OF GAME.
Tiebreak:
7-3 Alcaraz. Partial 6-0 Alcaraz. Tremendous the world number one winning a set in which he was in tow, in terms of play. When he played, he returned, while the rival ‘given away’ three errors that they did not touch. Difference attitude before the difficulty.
Alcaraz game. Suffering, but the score balanced. Waiting to find room for the rest and go for the Canadian. If not, play it to the tiebreak. With 19 consistent years the Murcian, every day more.
Auger game, again blank. The third of his account.
