00:00 [Music]
00:19 [Music]
00:22 So here they come, the teenagers. Alonso on the left, Ostero on the right.
00:29 Ostero just 16, but they have been simply brilliant here.
00:34 Of course, Riera and Araujo are the favorites here. Individually ranked 10 and 8.
00:46 Alonso and Ostero are both in the 30s, but against the teenagers Ostero and Alonso. We're underway.
00:54 [Music]
01:14 Early mistake from Ale Alonso.
01:16 Both pairs know what a chance it is.
01:20 [Applause]
01:29 40-30.
01:32 [Applause]
01:47 Opening game on the board.
01:49 Hold of serve by the Argentine, Virginia Riera.
01:54 Andrea Ostero, Catalan to serve here.
01:58 [Music]
02:16 Riera.
02:18 [Music]
02:30 They soon put it right.
02:32 One game all.
02:34 [Music]
02:42 30-15.
02:46 [Applause]
02:58 That's superb.
03:00 Adonet from Araujo.
03:02 [Applause]
03:18 Araujo nets.
03:22 [Music]
03:42 It's a miscue from Ostero now.
03:44 [Music]
03:51 Just in.
03:52 [Applause]
03:56 That's outstanding from Ostero.
03:58 [Applause]
04:01 What a calm response that was to being love 40. I know they haven't won the game yet.
04:05 [Applause]
04:11 Just wide from Ostero.
04:13 [Applause]
04:15 Riera to Ostero.
04:17 [Music]
04:23 Oh that looked wide.
04:25 [Music]
04:27 Are they going to challenge?
04:29 [Music]
04:31 Alonso called it out. Let's have a look.
04:33 [Music]
04:37 Yeah they are going to challenge.
04:39 [Music]
04:41 Because Alonso didn't seem sure.
04:43 [Music]
04:45 And her body language has led to the challenge. I don't blame them with this one.
04:49 [Music]
04:57 [Speaking Spanish]
05:05 [Music]
05:17 Yeah there's the break back.
05:19 [Applause]
05:21 Two all in this first set.
05:23 [Speaking Spanish]
05:25 [Speaking Spanish]
05:35 [Speaking Spanish]
05:37 [Speaking Spanish]
05:39 [Speaking Spanish]
05:55 Really good at that.
05:57 [Speaking Spanish]
06:03 And she does so well to kill that into the fence to bring up another break point.
06:08 [Speaking Spanish]
06:10 [Speaking Spanish]
06:12 [Speaking Spanish]
06:23 And she's gone wide Araujo.
06:25 [Speaking Spanish]
06:27 Three breaks have...
06:29 [Speaking Spanish]
06:34 Well that's long for Ostero.
06:36 15-13.
06:38 [Speaking Spanish]
06:47 And the portraits from Alonso to take us back to deuce.
06:52 [Speaking Spanish]
06:55 She made this look so easy from that position.
06:58 [Ball bouncing]
07:19 And then into the net for a frustrated Riera.
07:23 [Speaking Spanish]
07:26 [Ball bouncing]
07:37 [Speaking Spanish]
07:58 Good touch from Riera.
08:01 Yeah and well placed by Araujo.
08:03 [Speaking Spanish]
08:17 Couldn't get there. Perfectly placed.
08:21 Double break.
08:23 [Ball bouncing]
08:45 And an apology.
08:47 [Ball bouncing]
08:53 Ostero goes for power.
08:55 [Ball bouncing]
09:04 And rather lazily into the net.
09:06 [Ball bouncing]
09:13 Another mistake from Ostero. Maybe tightening up.
09:17 [Speaking Spanish]
09:23 [Ball bouncing]
09:31 That's wide.
09:33 And there's one of the breaks back.
09:35 [Speaking Spanish]
09:44 And the last thing that Alonso and Ostero needed here was a quick hold of serve.
09:52 And that's exactly what Riera's on her way to.
09:55 Defensive brilliance from Alonso.
10:12 [Applause]
10:15 Feels like an important point.
10:17 [Ball bouncing]
10:22 [Speaking Spanish]
10:23 Now they do hold.
10:26 Now.
10:28 [Ball bouncing]
10:39 Might end up being very important because now they are two points away.
10:44 [Ball bouncing]
10:54 And to the net it goes.
10:57 Alonso de Villa-Ostero.
10:58 The teenagers cling on and win the opening set.
11:02 Riera to serve as she did in the first set.
11:06 Alonso's fouette up.
11:10 Ostero somehow keeps it in play.
11:15 What a pick up that was from Alonso.
11:23 Alonso, wrong choice of shot really.
11:33 There's a lovely touch to win them the opening game of the second set.
11:38 Look at the corners, take the pace off.
11:50 There was no touch.
11:55 And there's pressure now on the youngsters.
12:16 Riera to wide.
12:29 Perfectly.
12:33 Virtuoso stuff from Araujo at the moment in this second set.
12:38 And they race into a three-love lead.
12:45 Pushes that wide.
12:52 Points here on the Alonso serve.
12:55 She's moving okay.
12:58 Moment.
13:05 But into the net it goes.
13:19 Ostero got there but nothing on it.
13:23 Just racing away with this second set.
13:35 Difficult time now.
13:37 With Araujo and Riera now.
13:40 Can Ostero and Alonso turn the tide? Not.
13:44 In this second set but can they give themselves some hope here?
13:49 Even winning a game would do that.
14:03 Well that's better.
14:06 How are they going to hold to love against all the odds?
14:21 That is what they're going to do. That's better.
14:31 And they move two points away.
14:46 Just lost their place there, Alonso.
14:57 Two.
15:01 Araujo serving.
15:23 That's better.
15:27 Well they take the opening game.
15:38 Araujo gets there remarkably and then it's long.
15:46 Amazing wingspan there.
15:58 It's long.
16:01 Riera can't believe it. She stalks off the court.
16:25 And they have the break back.
16:35 Now Araujo comes to the net but back into that defensive shape.
16:39 Now Alonso for the break.
16:44 And she gets it.
16:53 It was falling over there Araujo.
16:57 But then Alonso finds that.
17:14 Ostero winds up another Bahara.
17:43 And now they're starting to exploit it again to Alonso.
17:47 And again down the line beyond her.
17:49 And they do break back.
17:58 Alonso couldn't quite react in time.
18:13 Four all in the decider then.
18:33 Superbly through the legs from Araujo.
18:39 And then Ostero looking for the portraits.
18:59 Yeah Alonso can't get it back.
19:10 Yeah she can't guide that in play.
19:22 And Araujo looks for the finish and finds it.
19:29 And after.
19:30 And it's over.
