[19] Bruguera led *3:1 (30/15) when decided to play a serve-and-volley action which was very rare for him on clay, he lost the point being passed, and the set (from 4:3), but Arazi [55] – a great shot-maker – was known as someone who was struggling to beat higher ranked players in back-to-back matches (in the fourth round he’d eliminated Rios 6-2, 6-1, 5-7, 7-6). The Moroccan couldn’t hold when the 2nd set started, and his ability to surprise Bruguera with brilliant ground-strokes; he didn’t possess the required stamina to keep the same level for three hours against the rock-solid Spaniard. Over the last three sets Bruguera had a problem to hold only leading 4:1 in the 4th set, there was 15/40, but two good serves gave him two quick points.
