In the hard-fought game that took place on the courts of Roland Garros, Misolic showed impressive nerves.

Decisive moments
The third set was less pleasant for Misolic, who was 1:4 behind after an early break and ultimately lost the set 4:6. Misolic also had difficulties in the fourth set and was unable to take advantage of three break chances; Shapovalov equalized the set. In the decisive fifth set, however, Misolic managed a break to make it 3-1, which gave him the momentum he needed to win the match.
Shapovalov, on the other hand, struggled with internal conflict throughout the game, both with a fan and with the referee. Despite his difficulties, he went into the match as the favorite, having won clearly in the first round against Pedro Martinez Portero without dropping a set.
