Sabalinka’s random performance this week made things a little easier for Svetlak, as Belarus was out of balance in its highly aggressive game and made 31 unforced errors and scored just eight winning balls. The Polish player, on the other hand, was very balanced, with 15 unnecessary errors and 15 winning balls.
In the first three games of the match, the Servers performed the worst, breaking Sabalinka twice and Aiga once. Poland broke the series by confirming in the fourth game and it has not broken since then. He not only took the lead but also extended it with a new break in the seventh and final game of the first set.
The second part began as before, again with suffering for those who were in the service. Sabalinka then lost its first two serving games, but this time Svetik saved two break points starting at 4/0 on the scoreboard and faced them. Belarus still appeals for help in the spinal cord area, but nothing has changed, a new break has occurred and no opportunity has been found.
