Krasnodar did not start the championship in its best way. Murad Musaev’s team is probably betting on a ticket to the Champions League at the end of the tournament, but so far it is only on the fifth line in the table. The bulls scored 14 points in seven rounds and thus are three points behind the first Zenith. The same amount is lost to the second Spartak. Having issued a series of three matches without victories, Krasnodar received three points due to a technical defeat for Rotor and the team also had the opportunity to rest. The rest was beneficial and in the last round the bulls crushed Khimki. The outsider could only resist in the first half, but then crumbled and Krasnodar eventually won with a score of 7:2, interrupting a series of three matches without victories.
After the resumption of the season, Mannarino took part in four tournaments, two of which ended early for him. At the Masters in New York, Adrian lost to John Millman (6-4, 4-6, 6-7) in the first round of the competition and also lost in the first round in Rome, where he could not do anything with Milos Raonic (6-7, 2-6). More or less successful is Mannarino’s performance at the US Open. The Italian in the American Major managed to get to the third round, where he lost in four games to the future finalist of the competition Alexander Zverev (7-6, 4-6, 2-6, 2-6).
