## Post-match interview transcript
Discord thread: 🎤 Post-Semi-Final Interview: DANI21 🛩 aka Halapeno
DANI21 🛩 aka Halapeno: Well i think the net points won stat sums it up best. I was 17/23 and he was 0/12. I had a great day at the net and that was absolutely crucial to make up for my wonderful break point conversion
WTSL: Winning so many net points must have given you a lot of confidence. How do you plan to build on that in your next match?
DANI21 🛩 aka Halapeno: My next match is probably against madferit if seeding is respected so i have no clue honestly. I will see if i can pull it off again or not. I just hope i will have a way better break point conversion 4/15 is an absolute disaster
WTSL: Did it change how you approached the next few games?
DANI21 🛩 aka Halapeno: Not really, I was trying to keep the pressure on but in those big moments on return i made some elementary mistakes decision wise. Nearly cost me big time i was 5/1 down in the tiebreak. But i guess that freed me so i started hitting make or break shots on the forehand and it worked out i made way less errors. It wasn't a pretty win but a win is a win nonetheless
WTSL: Sounds like you managed to turn it around under pressure. Best of luck in the next match! 🏆
DANI21 🛩 aka Halapeno: Thank you bot
