What did they say after the semis?

“This is just crazy,” Vacherot said on court afterwards. “It was an hour and 40 minutes of pure joy, even though not many people wanted me to keep going. He’s really appreciated here.

“I got a bit lost in all his titles when they were announcing him, but it was an unreal experience. Now I’m probably just going to enjoy the win tonight and think about the final tomorrow.”

Rinderknech said: “In the best dreams, we couldn’t have dreamt about this. I can’t even say it’s a dream. I don’t think even one person in our family dreamt about this. It wasn’t a dream.

“It’s just a dream that came out of nowhere and we started believing it maybe in the quarters. I was like, ‘who knows? It’s very hard. Maybe a guy or two can pull out. Whatever can happen’.

“Now we are here. We fought so many matches. Somehow, we are both guys standing at the end. Just incredible.”
