ATP Auckland: Cobolli withdraws in derby with Nardi, Sonego advances with chill

Luca Nardi and Lorenzo Sonego fly to the round of 16 of the Auckland ATP 250. The Marche player benefits from the withdrawal of Flavio Cobolli at the score of 6-2 1-1 after only 45 minutes, while the Piedmontese wins the marathon match with Gabriel Diallo at the tie-break of the third set (7-6 2-6 7-6) after nearly three hours of play.

Lasting only just over a set, the all-blue derby between Nardi and Cobolli. After a clear 6-2 in favor of the former, in fact, the Roman raised the white flag at the beginning of the second set due to a right thigh problem, probably preferring the precautionary route a few days before the start of the Australian Open.

Victory with a chill for Sonego. After winning the first set in a tie-break 7 points to 5, the Turinese clearly surrendered the second set (2-6). In the third and decisive set Sonego bounced back from 2-5 down, even annulling a match point to the Canadian in the final tie-break, won by 8 points to 6.

In the round of 16, Nardi will challenge Belgian qualifier Zizou Bergs, number 66 in the ATP rankings, while Sonego will face U.S. Alex Michelsen, the eighth seed and world number 41.

Simone Inzaghi’s wife Gaia Lucariello also spoke about the news of the day, namely her coach husband’s’farewell to Inter: “The truth is that I would have liked to tell him to stay. I could have insisted, but four years is a long time, and I did not feel like it”

“We would have liked to, yes, but every cycle has a beginning and an end. As a wife, I always try to give the right advice, and today, although the heart would have chosen otherwise, the advice was to move on.

“These four years with Inter have been magnificent. This farewell weighs like a boulder. I will carry these years in my heart forever. Our son also wore the Inter jersey for four years, and that made the bond with these colors even deeper. It is not easy, for any of us. Not even for our little one, who leaves what is home for him.

“Life, however, must be distinguished from work, and today the road takes us elsewhere. But a piece of our heart will stay here. Always. Forza Inter”, he concluded on Instagram

Gianluigi Donnarumma, the great protagonist of Psg’s triumphant ride in the Champions League, is coveted by clubs from half of Europe.

He is a big name in the world of football.

His agent Enzo Raiola knows it well, who spoke about it to Radio Crc: “We are working on the new contract. Obviously Gigio has several requests, many would like him, but few can afford him. He is very well in Paris, we are in the European champion club, so we are certainly not complaining”.

“Fans have always loved Donnarumma, criticism if anything comes more from Italy’Italy. It was a dream of his to reach the roof of Europe, he succeeded” he added.

Excluding a return to Italy: “That he could go to Napoli is pure fantasy, we have not spoken with the club. Gigio is milanista, but he has never denied his origins and his mother is a blue supporter. I do not know how such news came out, but it is still fantasy”.
