Galán and Chingotto Outsmart Augsburger & Cardona to Win Asunción P2 Final
In a tactical masterclass at the Asunción Premier Padel P2 2025, Alejandro Galán and Federico Chingotto defeated the explosive young duo Leo Augsburger and Pablo Cardona with a dominant 7-6, 6-1 victory. This win not only marks their third title together, but also cements their growing reputation as one of the most intelligent and adaptive teams on the tour.
🔍 Outplaying the “Destructores” with Smart Padel
Unlike other top pairs who fell into the trap of lob-heavy strategies, Galán and Chingotto came in with a clear plan: avoid high lobs that give Augsburger and Cardona the opportunity to do what they do best — smash the ball with devastating power.
Known as "Los Destructores", the young Argentine duo thrives on aggressive overheads and quick net domination. In previous rounds, they capitalized on the mistakes of Juan Lebrón and Franco Stupaczuk, as well as Coello and Tapia, who played one too many defensive lobs — essentially feeding their biggest weapon.
Galán and Chingotto didn’t make the same mistake.
🧠 Tactical Discipline Wins Matches
Instead of giving away height and time with lobs, Galán and Chingotto kept their game low and compact, forcing Cardona and Augsburger to generate their own pace off the ground — a much tougher ask. Chingotto’s sharp volleys and Galán’s control of the center denied the younger pair the rhythm they rely on.
The first set was tight, going into a tiebreak (7-6), but once Galán and Chingotto found their groove, they cruised through the second set 6-1 with almost surgical precision.
⚔️ Lessons for the Field
This final showed that power alone isn't enough — strategic intelligence and match discipline are just as critical. By simply refusing to give their opponents the kind of ball they wanted, Galán and Chingotto completely neutralized their firepower.
For rising players and fans in Lebanon's growing padel community, it’s a reminder that shot selection and tactics can often win out over brute strength.
