The visitors got off to a better start in the second round. Roman Abinet, who did not have it easy during the first part of the match, then scored a lot of points. He then proved decisive. Opposite, Jeroen Oprins, the opposition from Antwerp, scored but he also made a lot of mistakes. “That allowed us to pull away in the second and third sets.”
The central Michel Debaus, whom Audry Frankart wanted to preserve due to a knee problem, went up to the second set. “I asked him if he felt capable. He is well mounted.”
Guibertin could also count on an excellent Gertjan Vande Velde, author of twenty points in total including three aces. “Sébastien Dumont received well, Gert Van Walle looked for a lot of balls in defense, Guillaume Godart varied the game well. It worked well.”
