00:24 Here we go, Fede Chingotto and Ale Galan emerge into the light show.
00:30 Third seeds for this event. Galan having broken up his partnership with Juan Lebron
00:37 is now teamed up with El Raton the mouse.
00:40 When the defensive lobs come back if they're short you can bet your bottom dollar
00:46 Alejandro Galan is going to be there to just smack those out of town.
00:52 [Music]
00:57 Yeah nice and tidy first game in the pot for Ale Galan and Fede Chingotto one love.
01:19 Dump and a drop shot there from Tineno has killed that stone dead. Galan can't field it. 1-1.
01:27 Tineno loses his bearings, three service holds.
01:46 [Applause]
01:48 [Applause]
01:51 [Music]
01:53 [Applause]
01:55 [Music]
01:57 [Applause]
01:59 [Applause]
02:01 [Applause]
02:03 [Applause]
02:05 [Game play sounds]
02:24 [Applause]
02:27 [Game play sounds]
02:32 [Game play sounds]
02:43 Well played.
02:44 [Game play sounds]
02:47 Fifth straight serve hold. Second for Galán. It is 3-2 here in the first set.
02:53 [Game play sounds]
03:07 And again, top spin, execution is spot on. Game 3-3.
03:14 Responsibility now to Fedde Chingotto on the serve. This match so far. It's 40-15.
03:24 [Game play sounds]
03:34 Might have been carrying into the wall there from Chingotto, but Stupa returned it.
03:38 [Game play sounds]
03:42 Of course it's the mistake. Good service save there from Fedde Chingotto.
03:47 And we continue on serve in this semi-final. Chingotto and Galán.
03:52 [Game play sounds]
04:08 Oh, it's just a bit much. Nice idea from Ale.
04:14 [Game play sounds]
04:26 Ah, forced enough mistakes to snuff out those break points against.
04:33 And now the onus will be on Tineno to save the set here.
04:38 [Game play sounds]
04:59 There it is. There's the mistake. There's the break. There's the first set right there.
05:06 [Game play sounds]
05:17 Yeah, pinning Stupa back. They just absolutely glued him into that corner.
05:22 All right. One love.
05:29 [Game play sounds]
05:58 [Game play sounds]
06:14 Ripper. Put everything and an extra 10% into that did Tineno.
06:23 Blitz that to the corner. Again, some lovely pick up play here.
06:28 [Game play sounds]
06:37 Tineno. Yeah, goes in the end for a body shot. And 2-1.
06:46 So the save is there on the serve here from...
06:53 [Game play sounds]
07:08 Oh, Galan has left that short and Stupa is going to smash that home.
07:17 Just letting them know they're still in this semi on serve here.
07:22 Stupa and Tineno. Way to break through this Chingotto Galan serve.
07:33 And a save from Stupa on that smash. Chingotto to the corners.
07:39 Oh, beautiful contact there. That angle from Galan cross court gets the grid.
07:48 Stupa can't turn the...
07:51 [Game play sounds]
08:01 Comes back there on the smash from Stupa.
08:04 [Game play sounds]
08:28 Oh, beauty. Little nod round there by Galan to see where the gap was.
08:34 And he absolutely nailed it. It's a service held to love there for Ale Galan.
08:40 4-3.
08:42 [Game play sounds]
08:46 Well, the quality here.
08:49 [Game play sounds]
09:14 Chingotto smashes home and that is a huge break. A huge game and a huge break of serve there.
09:22 [Game play sounds]
09:34 There we go. They've teamed up.
09:38 This Venezuela tournament for the first time but you could be forgiven for thinking that Ale Galan and Federico Chingotto had been playing together for years.
