Falck got a taste start and had several opportunities to put an end to the match.
In the lead with 2-1 in sets, he went up to 10-7 and then had another set ball.
This set may have been decisive for the outcome
The Frenchman won 17-15.
In the fifth set it continued, but Alexandre Cassin saved two set balls and won the set by 12-10.
Falck got to an arbitration set and again had opportunities to snatch, but the Frenchman tore heroically and was finally able to take home the match.
- Hard to say anything now.
I must not let go of the two sets where I have several set balls, says a disappointed Mattias Falck according to TT.
Källberg also fell
It was also tough for Anton Källberg who fell against world number seven Lin Gaoyuan in his second match.
In total, Källberg saved six match balls in the fifth and sixth and pushed the Chinese to the arbitration set.
There, the Swede got off to a flying start with 3-0, but the wind-fast Lin was finally able to win with 11-4.
- I would have needed to be better from the start.
Now I was forced to hunt.
If you want to beat him, you have to be very good in the serve and return game, says Anton Källberg.
Möregårdh surprised
Still, three players remain in the singles game, Truls Möregårdh, Kristian Karlsson and Linda Bergström.
In addition, everyone is left in the doubles game.
Truls Möregårdh was the positive surprise when he beat the world player Chuang Chih-Yuan from Taiwan.
The Swede played inspired and went up to 3-1 in sets.
Then suddenly Chuang changed a part of his game and got to an arbitration set.
A head start for Truls Möregårdh paved the way for the victory, which was eventually written to 11-8.
- I am extremely happy with the match.
Make few mistakes, had good tactics and am really happy with my returns, said Truls Möregårdh.
