Tennis: Adrian Mannarino v Nicolas Almagro

I have decided to get in from the off here. I feel Almagro looked decent in his last match and should have too much in his armoury for Mannarino. 1.39 seems a fair price to me. I hope Almagro wins the 1st set then I'll probably greeen out and hit the sack!

0-15  was a good start but Mannarino holds to 15. 1-0*

Comfortable hold to 15 from Almagro levels it at 1*-1

0-15 again ... 0-30 ... 15-30 ... 30-30 ... 30-40 Take It! ... Deuce! ... GP ... Holds! 2-1* I hate it when they don't take early chances! Makes me very nervous that it might just not be their day!

Hold to love from Almagro looking commanding! 2*-2

And swiftly followed by another love hold from Mannarino 3-2*

FFS Almagro throws in a bit of a dodgy service game and Mannarino takes full advantage for the break to 30!! That's what I mean about missing the early opportunities! 4*-2

And follows it up with a hold to love! 5-2* Come on Almagro back to how you were playing in the first 4 games please!

Al-MUG-ro what are you doing? 0-30!!! ... 15-30 ... 30-30 ... 40-30 ... Idiot! Deuce! ... GP #2 ... Holds! Phew 5*-3

Can we have a French choke now please Mannarino? Cos 1.58 seems rather low! ... 0-15 here we go!! ... 0-30 Oi Oi ... 15-30 ... 15-40 take one of these Nico!! ... 30-40 ... this one then? YES!! Break! 5-4*

Now hold! 15-0 ... 15-15 don't feck it up ... 30-15 ... 40-15 ... Holds 5*-5

Break please Nico! 0-15 ... 15-15 ... 30-15 ... 40-15 ... 40-30 ... Hold 6-5*

Make sure you get to that tie break now after coming back from a break down! 0-15 don't you dare! ... 15-15 ... 30-15 .. 40-15 ...Holds

Tie break! Mannarino to serve 1st
