Funny scene at Lyon : on match point, Álex Ruiz believes the point is over after a smash from their opponents Javi Barahona and Javi García… But Juanlu Esbri saves the ball with the tip of his racket. The point continues, and Ruiz, back in the exchange, concludes with a huge smash from the baseline !
Between incomprehension, tension and an explosion of joy, Ruiz's face says it all: the point, filmed at the perfect moment, sums up all the intensity of the point.
The Spanish duo wins 7/5 6/7 6/4 after a fierce battle and goes semi final du FIP Platinum Lyon, where they will face Martín Di Nenno and Javi Leal for a place in the final.
I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
