Anderson and Gasquet at the 1/4-finals in Tokyo

Kevin Anderson, as well as Richard Gasquet, qualified for the quarterfinals of the Tokyo tennis tournament. South African Anderson coped with the rising American star Frances Tiafoe and beat him 6:3, 3:6, 6:2. Anderson resorted to his usual weapon - the strong starting blow, realizing 18 aces, allowing only two breakthroughs, one of which was realized in the second set.

In the first set the South African player made a break and it was enough to pull ahead. In the second he tried to solve the match early, but Tiafoe saved three breakthroughs and in turn realized one to equalize the parts. In the third set, however, Anderson did go up high, made an early break and quickly led to 4:1, which also determined the direction of the match.

Expecting it already in the quarterfinals, Richard Gasquet is also there after he clashes with the Australian Nick Kyrgios with 7:6 (4), 7:6 (1). The match by tennis news was literally a point-to-point point to the second tiebreak, where the Australian failed to resist. In the first he fought to 4:2 when Gaske lied to him with two passing strokes along the line.

Stefanos Tsitsipas dealt with Alex de Minaur with 6:3, 5:7, 6:1, but the season is good for both of them, as the youngsters slipped into the top 50 of the world tennis. De Minaur, who was not set up, had a hard time closing his serve by allowing 20 break points to save only 14 points. Cicipas will face Kei Nishikori in quarter-finals, with the host`s winner twice winning the tournament. Also in the draw, Jan-Lennard Struff (Germany) beat Jeremy Chardy (France) with 7:6 (3), 6:7 (2), 6:4. This is the first quarterfinals since May and will be against Denis Shapovalov (Canada).

Matthaus also spoke of the change of Hoeness

The Bayern Munich (Munich) legend Lothar Matthaus shared his vision for eventual changes in club leadership. In recent weeks, it has been increasingly spoken that perhaps the time has come for Uli Hoeness to leave the presidency. The boss himself said he was ready to leave at the end of the season, but he had not seen a worthy successor yet. According to Matthaus, a lead role in the Bavarian Grand Prix must be for Oliver Kahn. Here is how I see things: Rumenigge becomes President, Uli Hoeness remains in the background simply as an honorary president, and Kahn becomes CEO of Calle, Matthaus told Bild. Currently the former goalkeeper does not take up any post, and he was recently asked whether he would become a boss in Bayern, who responded with everything with his time. He is the face of the club, he brings Bayern into his DNA. Oly understands the game predicted by over under fixed tips perfectly, always ambitious, and smart enough. I believe he can lead Bayern to a bright future.', Matthaus added.

Honess and Rumenigge, in their roles as President and CEO, are the leading figures in the club. Everything depends on them - even the transfers. But it is said that not everything between them is perfect. For example, Hoeness had accused Calle that while he was in jail, Rummenigge missed the chance to refresh the team from the players. Rummenigge`s contract with Bayern expires next summer.
