The media El Comercio regretted losing the contested match against the Chilean team which left them on the verge of achieving the feat of reaching the final of the world competition. He appreciated the performance of his compatriots, even if they are not favorites.
With a close final result of 3-2, Chile beat Peru on the field of the National Stadium and put their name on the list of 16 qualified for the 2024 Davis Cup final. At one point, the team National reached the score of 1- 2 down, being in failure to be eliminated, however, With Nicolás Jarry’s victory over Juan Pablo Varillas and Alejandro Tabilo’s hard-fought victory against Ignacio Buse, they allowed the team led by Nicolás Massú to overcome the score and unleash the joy of the fans present. .
But unlike the joy and celebration of Chilean partisanship, those in the neighboring country had to sadly accept the defeat that prevented them from joining the advanced group. One of the media outlets most insistent on this elimination was El Comercio. On the Peruvian site, they analyzed with regret the fall of their compatriots, emphasizing how close they were to obtaining a ticket to the next phase. “The feeling of a nation came and went at each assembly point, emotions grew with each practice and faded with unforced errors. “Ignacio Buse fought every moment and allowed Peru to watch tennis on a Sunday night and have hope until the last match.” they began by saying in the chronicle of the duel.
In preview, the Rimac press predicted that it would not be easy to face the four tennis players who are among the 100 best in the world. “The southerners used all possible weapons: perhaps the most striking was the choice to play on a hard pitch, aware that it is the surface that does not favor the Peruvians, and they built it in their national stadium. “They will have their supporters in their favor and they arrive with a team of four players in the top 100, which did not happen 40 years ago in the neighboring country.” they said with a certain reserve.
However, despite the hope that existed at a given moment, they should have consoled themselves for having fought a more than honorable fight. “Unfortunately, Despite the enormous effort, Peru only touched glory . The two-color team lost 3-2 to Chile and was on the verge of qualifying for the Davis Cup final. And this time we were closer than ever. » , they emphasized with dismay at the lack of hierarchy that they were not obligated to liquidate the series. And the Peruvians only needed one shot to eliminate the Chileans. It is more, Buse started by winning the first set against Tabilo 2-6, but then could not resist the onslaught of the number two racket of our country and succumbed 6-3 and 6-2.
With this fall in the last match, the aforementioned site was optimistic about what was on display, assessing the level of its young star. “It was Buse who kept us in the show. Su victoria ante el top 20 Jarry del sábado y llegar hasta el tercer set el cruce con Tabilo hablan de una rapida devolución del tenista peruano que con 19 años emocionó a dos plus dos partidos de singles, demostrando que el tenis peruano tiene grand futuro y for a long time” they finished.
