BAN and ANDRAS prevailed in the final in three games (3 7 11).
“This was our best match ever. Finally we made it. This is our first gold after not being able to reach the title in two previous finals. Last year we lost 2-3 in the final of the Under 21 European Championships and we lost also 2-3 a doubles final at juniors World Championships! Now you can imagine our happiness after wining 3-0 ”said Ivor BAN.

It was amazing because it was as I said before our first tournament. We feel good playing together and I am pretty sure that we will win together many other medals. For us this medal is a dream come true ” added Csaba ANDRAS.
