1-2: Auger-Aliassime, executioner of Alcaraz and Spain

Spain he has a pass to the quarterfinals, but he needs to know what will happen to Canada-Serbia this Saturday and, above all, he has to ensure victory against South Korea at the end of Sunday Fonteta de San Luis de Valencia.

Marcel Granollers and Pedro Martinez they served for the match and tie, already tied for a place in the top-8 of the Malaga Finals, with 5-4 in the third set, but there was a comeback for the hero of the day, Felix Auger-Aliassimeand his companion Vasek Pospisil.

Canada ended the victory over Spain, 1-2, winning the decisive doubles 4-6, 6-4 and 7-5. Earlier, Auger-Aliassime stopped Carlos Alcaraz in his world number one competition debut. Frederic Fontang’s pupil and Tony Nadal took advantage of the US Open champion’s fatigue to win 6-7 (3), 6-4, 6-2, leveling the clash that began with the victory of Robert Baptist in Vasek Pospisil by 3-6, 6-3 and 6-3.

It was not the day of the team led by Sergi Bruguera. Carlos Alcaraz put in a commitment and tennis, but not enough to stop the Auger-Aliassime storm. The Murcian paid for New York’s efforts, changing to slower schedule conditions.

Granollers and Martínez come to the rescue, but the lace is missing. They dominated the stage well but paid for the first ruling in the second set, which escaped them with the first ball of a ‘break’ match.

With all in favor, 5-4, Pedro Martínez lost his turn on serve. The Hispanics felt the blow, the North Americans stepped up, closing in their favor in the survivor’s decision.

Canada, with 2 qualifiers dominating, can top their ranking if they beat Serbia. In addition, as the first in the group. The Balkans are 1-1 with Spain, favorites against South Korea. There are two seats for three, and those from Bruguera really know what they have to do on Sunday to go Malaga in November, from 22 to 27.
