AUGER-ALIASSIME WINS MATCH WITH FOREHAND DOWN THE LINE/ PLAYERS SHAKE HANDS STORY: Jiri Lehecka and Felix Auger-Aliassime will meet in the European Open final after winning their semi-finals on Saturday (October 18). Lehecka won his match against Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard in straight sets but needed a tiebreaker on both occasions. It's back-to-back European Open finals for Lehecka and his third final of 2025. Auger-Aliassime was up against home favourite Raphael Collignon and it was the Belgian who had the crowd on its feet after a pulsating rally in which both players were lobbed ended with the Canadian hitting the ball long. Collignon did save set point with the match at 5-4 in the first but eventually Auger-Aliassime powered his way ahead winning the tiebreaker convincingly. That seemed to sap Collignon's energy and after going a break down in the second set he couldn't find a way back against the U.S. Open semifinalist. Auger-Aliassime has now reached four finals in 2025 and will be looking to add to his wins in Montpellier and Adelaide. (Production: Simon Ormiston)

FELIX SHAKING HANDS WITH OPPOSITION PLAYERS AND HIS OWN TEAMMATES/ SCORE GRAPHIC STORY: Saudi Pro League leaders Al Nassr thumped Al Fateh 5-1 on Saturday (October 18) with summer signing Joao Felix scoring a hat-trick. Felix gave the hosts the lead 13 minutes in with a long-range strike. The visitors  then levelled nine minutes after the restart through Algerian international Sofiane Bendebka. Cristiano Ronaldo, however, restored Al-Nassr's lead on the hour mark, rifling a shot from the edge of the box into the top corner. From that point, Jorge Jesus' side ran rampant with Felix finishing off a solo run through the Al Fateh defence to make it 3-1 before another summer signing Kingsley Coman contributed the fourth. Felix's third was as easy a goal he will ever score, tapping in after a defender blocked Sadio Mane's initial shot on the goal line.  The result sees Al Nassr extend their perfect start to the season to five wins from five while Al Fateh lie in the relegation zone with just one point.  (Production.
