“In the second set, we had the feeling that Daniil wasn’t serving very well. I didn’t see how he could turn the tide of the match. And then I saw it.

Once after returning, he said that he thought something like this: “Okay, we are leaving tomorrow.” And it helped him relax. Something changed, the flow began. Everything about his game has changed. He started to get closer at the receiving end, and from the back line he started to play more aggressively,” Cervara said after the match.
