Kreichikova played against the Belgian athlete Grete Minnen in the second round, who had previously knocked out the top Ukrainian tennis player Dayana Yastremska from the fight for the title. Having lost the first set, in the next two games Barbora still found the strength and turned the tide of the match, which would have been simply impossible without her ability to confidently act in games on her serve. At the reception, the Czech woman does not play so well, but so far it absolutely does not bother her.
Both in terms of recruitment and the latest results in official matches, the Irish national team is seriously inferior to the British. In the semi-finals of the play-offs for a ticket to Euro 2020, Stephen Kenny’s charges have recently lost to Slovakia (the penalty shootout ended 4:2). In addition, last month the Green Army played a draw in the League of Nations with Wales (0:0) and gave up Finland’s minimum score (1:0). In total, in four games at the tournament, the guys in the green managed to get hold of only two points.
