## Four wins for Clément Geens in Düsseldorf

**Clément Geens and Nacho Moragues Moltò** won four matches before losing to **Maxi Arce and Juan Tello** on Thursday 8 October in the round of 16 at the [Germany P2](https://www.padelfip.com/events/germany-p2-2026/). Beaten **7-5, 6-3**, the Belgian and the Spaniard leave Düsseldorf after coming through three qualifying rounds and the opening round of the main draw.

[World No. 70 in the FIP rankings of 5 October](https://www.padelfip.com/player/clement-geens/), Geens teamed up with Spain’s Nacho Moragues Moltò this week. Their run began on Sunday with a 6-3, 6-3 win over Simone Iacovino and Giulio Graziotti. On Monday, they beat Simone Vaccari and Ignacio Alonso Chillarón 6-3, 6-4. The final qualifying round took three sets: on Tuesday, Geens and Moragues defeated Álvaro Montiel and Daniel Santigosa **6-3, 6-7, 6-2**.

On Wednesday, they beat Javier Barahona and Ignacio Piotto **6-3, 6-4** to reach the last 16. Against Arce and Tello, their fifth match in five days ended in a straight-sets defeat. Geens pointed to missed break opportunities and their opponents’ stronger play at crucial moments.

## Clément Geens discusses his tournament with Actu Padel

After his last-16 match, Clément Geens spoke to Actu Padel about his run in Düsseldorf and the missed chances against Arce and Tello.

**How do you feel after this last-16 match?**

> *We lost 7-5, 6-3. Of course, we’re a little disappointed after the match because we did have some chances. We played a good match overall.*

**What made the difference?**

> *They played better at the important moments. We managed to create quite a few break points that we couldn’t convert. Those little things made the difference. Well done to them for that. But we gave a good account of ourselves. We played our match, fought well until the end and played well. I think we made the right tactical choices.*

**How do you assess your week in Düsseldorf?**

> *A very good tournament overall, four wins here and one defeat. We could feel that we were starting to get a little tired too. We’ve been here since Saturday midday and played every day on a really slow court. The carpet is soft, so it’s hard on the legs.*

**What comes next?**

> *We need to try to keep this good momentum going and continue from Saturday in Milan, where I’ll be playing with Dylan.*

Geens will therefore reunite with **Dylan Guichard**, his regular partner, in Milan from Saturday 10 October, following this week alongside Moragues.
