It was the battle of the two Spaniards tonight - Sergio Lobera vs Albert Roca.

Ahead of the match, Roca had said that Goa were one of the favourites for the title this year, seemingly an attempt at mind games with an aim to put pressure on the Gaurs. Well, with Goa winning the match, his comments were actually proven right with his side losing their first game of the campaign tonight.

Only Roca knows if he meant his statements as a compliment, but if not, they certainly left him feeling vindicated, except not in the way he would have expected.
