Q2: Ivan in 3 against Balazs – Matthew back from behind against Salah

Ivan Perez (ESP) 3-0 [2] Balazs Farkas (HUN)  11-9, 11-5, 11-3 (34m)

Ivan

I told you yesterday I would win!!!

I’m over the moon….

To be honest, I was thinking of the match with Rui since I saw the draw, for about a month now. I felt confident, and I was looking forward to the match. I wanted to play him, really bad.

And I went on court today, yesterday helped me a lot to find my length, which was much better than yesterday, how to hit the ball a bit softer, my lines, my depth were much better. And starting from there, I was able to attack way better. Today was probably my best attacking squash ever.

I’m playing  the match between Yannick and Samuel, so it’s going to be a great battle for sure, they are both really good and very good friends of mine.

I’m going to watch the match, and hopefully, they are going to 5….

Matthew Lai (HKG) 3-2 Salah Eltorgman (CAN)  11-8, 5-11, 3-11, 11-2, 11-9 (54m)

I am a bit surprised by my results. I didn’t expect beating Henry, and today, Salah, because he is very good player. And I was down 2/1.

I changed my game, in the first two games, I played very fast, but he is very tall, and one step, he is there, so fast. From the third on, I played a much slower pace, and it was difficult for him to adapt to my change of tactic.
