“It was amazing. We were two games down but we played very well. We had a feeling we can beat them. It was the same like in quarterfinal when we were 2:1 down and we prevailed against Belaus pairings ” said LOYEN.
Adina DIACONU and Andreea DRAGOMAN beat Marie MIGOT and Oceane GUISNEL of France on their way to the final.
“For me it was important to me to start the day in a good way because I have to play singles little bit latter. The first set was crucial; we lead 8-2 but then they recovered to level 8-8. We kept our spirit high despite that and won. We were more motivated aggressive ” said DIACONU.
Top European player added:
“We suffered defeat against them in previous occasion in straight games. Today it was different story. We do not play together for a long time maybe a year. But in this year we practiced a lot and played European tournaments together.”
