The Brazilian Pablo Lima and the Spanish Alejandro Galán qualified on Saturday at the Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona before 9,000 fans for the final of the Final Master of the World Padel Tour in which they will fight for the title against the Argentineans Fernando Belasteguín and Agustín Tapia.

The Spanish-Brazilian couple defeated Argentina's Sanyo Gutierrez and Maxi Sanchez in three sets (4-6, 6-4 and 1-6) in a two-and-a-half hour battle with two sensational first sleeves.

The first set was matched with the two couples gaining their service until the tenth set in which Lima and Galán broke the game to their rivals to sign the sleeve 4-6. The second race seemed to be on the same course when Lima and Galán managed to break 2-4 but the Argentines reacted to add a 4-0 run and return their rivals 6-4.

What looked like it was going to be a last set in the face of a dog did not finally have color. Lima and Galán put the direct one and erased the Argentine couple from the track with a 1-6 that led them to the final where the two players who won the 2018 Final Master in a pair, Fernando Belasteguín and Pablo Lima, will be face to face.

In the women's competition, the Spaniards Alejandra Salazar and Ariana Sánchez got into the final after an agonized match of more than two and a half hours in which they undid in the tie break of the third set (8-6) of Argentina Delfina Brea and the Spanish Bea González and beat them 3-6, 6-3 and 7-6.

Salazar and Sanchez survived three match points of their rival in the tenth game of the third set to end up winning and forcing the tie break, in which they traced a score against 3/5 against the revelation match of the tournament.

Alejandra Salazar will defend this Sunday the title won last year with Marta Marrero, who on this occasion will be her rival by partnering with Marta Ortega.
