Federico Chingotto was named Most Valuable Player of the Premier Padel Milano P1 final following a spectacular display alongside Alejandro Galán. The duo defeated Arturo Coello and Agustín Tapia in a dramatic 2-6, 6-3, 6-0 comeback that electrified the Allianz Cloud arena and marked one of the most memorable matches of the 2025 season.
Chingotto’s relentless energy, tactical precision, and defensive brilliance were instrumental in turning the tide after a difficult first set. His ability to read the game and neutralize Tapia’s aggression allowed Galán to take control of the net and shift the momentum in their favor.
Galán’s Emotional Tribute
After the match, Galán paid heartfelt tribute to his partner, highlighting not just his performance but his character.
“Chingotto is not the MVP of the match, he’s the MVP of life,” Galán said, a quote that resonated with fans and underscored the deep bond between the two players.
Their chemistry was evident throughout the tournament, but it was in the final where Chingotto’s leadership and resilience truly shone. His court coverage and ability to absorb pressure gave Galán the freedom to unleash his attacking game.
A Historic Win Against the World No. 1 Pair
The victory was especially significant given the dominance of Coello and Tapia throughout the season. The 6-0 scoreline in the third set marked the first time the world No. 1 pair had been blanked in a Premier Padel final.
Chingotto and Galán’s win also extended their remarkable run in Italy, having previously triumphed in Rome and Genova. This Milan title adds a new chapter to their growing legacy on Italian soil.
Crowd Support and Emotional Connection
The atmosphere at the Allianz Cloud was electric, with over 4,500 fans in attendance. Chingotto acknowledged the crowd’s role in their victory, saying: “I don’t know what it is about Italy, but it’s always special to win here. Thank you all for the love and support.”
Galán echoed the sentiment, adding: “We have a special bond with Italy, and winning this tournament in Milan is very emotional. Since we arrived, we had the feeling we could do really well, and we’re proud to have achieved it in front of such an incredible crowd.”
Looking Ahead
With this MVP recognition, Chingotto solidifies his status as one of the most complete players on the circuit. His blend of humility, grit, and tactical intelligence continues to elevate his game—and inspire those around him.
