Egyptian Mostafa Asal obtained from end to end PSA "Tour de las Americas' Cup," Decker Truck "of Mar del Plata by winning the final by Robertino Pezzota rosarino 3-0 in 40 minutes. This so the young native player from a country where squash thrives with quality players to the elite of the sport worldwide won his first professional tournament with less than 17 years. The final was held at the legendary microstage "Ricardo Roude" facing a real crowd.

Asal plays like a veteran. His poise, variety and strength both mentally and physically put it in a place of projection that only he will know where your roof. Style, determination and exuberance on the move are some of its salient features. In this context, there is little he could do Pezzota.
