set because I lost my concentration when I saw Murray called
the trainer. In the third set, he moved
me a lot and I was tired because I ran a lot in the first
and second. He won a lot of points with his good passing shots
when I approched to the net. "

in his left leg.

an historic match for Thailand. I'm disappointed and sorry
