The first fight in this tournament turned out to be quite difficult for Berrettini. He even lost one game to the Spaniard Albert Ramos, so he won three sets (6-7, 6-3, 7-5). But, as previous matches show, the Italian takes a long time to harness, but if he gets in shape, then it is not at all easy to stop him. Matteo’s last tournament before Cincinnati was Wimbledon. In London, the Italian representative managed to reach the final, where he lost to Novak Djokovic.
Yellow were able even in the Champions League to pass the first opponent, Gap Connach Quay. But even with the Welsh they did not shine: on the road they did not keep the advantage of 2 goals, after which they could score at home only in extra-time, in the 112th minute. It is not surprising that then Grigoryan’s charges could not oppose anything to the experienced Sheriff, ending in a 0:1 at home, 1:3 with Tiraspol. Having ignominiously left the Champions League, then the Armenians managed to pass Kairat. Kazakhs played with nine players. If there were no special questions about the removal of Polyakov, then Abiken was given 2 yellow cards immediately after the start of extra time.
