I was looking forward to watch Lapentti's match very much. Both players served extremely well and gave their opponent no chance to break. The set seemed to be decided by tie-breaker, but Sanchez lost his serve in the eleventh game and had no chance to come back. Lapentti broke the Spanish player in the first game of the second set again, but Sanchez managed to get the re-break to tie the score to 4-4. But Sanchez got nervous and gave the Ecuador Davis Cup player a double break point in the nineth game. Time to score a big point - in a great and very even-strengthed match, Lapenttis was just slightly better but won the match deservedly.
