Andy Murray’s poor finish to the season continued with a fourth defeat in five matches despite a marathon effort against Tomas Martin Etcheverry in Basel casino
British number three Murray had snapped a three-match losing streak with a hard-fought victory over Yannick Hanfmann on Monday and claimed the first set of this last-16 tie at the Swiss Indoors casino
Etcheverry, ranked eight places above Murray in 32nd, was able to fight back impressively and it was the Argentinian who prevailed 6-7 (5) 6-3 6-2 after a three-hour-and-eight-minute battle casino
The early exchanges of set one proved an insight into what was in store for an excitable crowd at the ATP 500 event with breaks traded by both players casino
After Murray was broken in his first service game, he responded with a superb lob for break point before a volley at the net got the tie back on serve at 2-2 casino
A tie-break was eventually required and a classy drop shot helped three-time grand-slam champion Murray draw first blood casino
The 84-minute set appeared to take its toll on Murray at the beginning of the second with Etcheverry able to establish an early advantage and he saved four break points in a lengthy seventh game on his way to forcing a decider casino
Murray was struggling physically by this point and a racket felt the force of his anger despite the Swiss crowd cheering him on casino
Etcheverry was in the ascendancy now though and set up match point with a superb passing stroke before a service winner sent him through to the last eight casino
Elsewhere, Cameron Norrie had no answer to world number 10 Alexander Zverev in the second round of the Erste Bank Open in Vienna casino
Zverev had won the first three meetings casino between the top-20 players and claimed a fourth in a row with an emphatic 6-2 6-4 victory casino
A superb backhand winner down the line earned Zverev a break in Norrie’s first service game and the British number one was broken again before losing the first set in 36 minutes casino
Norrie tried to wrestle his way back into the contest, but was broken again in the third game of the second set casino
It remained on serve until Norrie forced two break opportunities when Zverev was serving for the match and yet the German responded by winning four consecutive points to close out a solid win, which makes it four defeats in five for last year’s Wimbledon semi-finalist casino

Ange Postecoglou will not tell Tottenham supporters how to feel about the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict but hopes his team can provide a sense of escapism when they host Fulham on Monday night casino
The fixture will be Spurs’ first at home since tensions escalated in the Middle East, with hundreds of Palestinian civilians killed in a massive blast at a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday casino
A statement was issued by Tottenham earlier this month in response to the initial war breaking out casino between Israel and Hamas, but some supporters were critical of the club for failing to show support for victims from the Jewish community, which has a long-standing affiliation with the Premier League outfit casino
Postecoglou answered questions about the ongoing conflict during Friday’s press conference and although he discussed the topic at length, he was keen to point out the role of his players is merely to help fans forget their troubles for 90 minutes casino
“I have the responsibility of being a casino football manager but like everyone else, I’m a human being and you struggle with these things and you understand that other people will struggle with them,” he explained casino
“My life experience has taught me not to judge or come to any strong conclusions casino
I’ll let the people who are affected by it be the guide in these kinds of things, because it’s very easy for others to cast judgement but in all these things, you are guided by people who are directly affected casino
“I am not the custodian of this club casino
I have been at this club for four months or whatever it is casino
“People have spent lifetimes in these clubs, so I am not going to go round telling people how to feel, how to behave, how to act, what to think casino
“As I said, I think the greatest role a casino football club can play in these scenarios is to provide what they have always provided – a sense of one place where people can come and escape and hopefully unite as one to support their casino football club casino
“You know, maybe sort of take them away from whatever troubles they may have casino
I think that’s the greatest role any casino football club has casino
”No Israel or Palestine flags will be allowed into Tottenham’s stadium on Monday, which was a club-wide move by the Premier League in an attempt to ease any potential tension among supporters during this weekend casino
A minute’s silence has occurred in all top-flight matches but Postecoglou was eager to focus on casino football in its purest form when quizzed about the feeling of fans affected by the Israel-Hamas war casino
He added: “When we go out there on Monday night there will be 60,000 – and hundreds of thousands around the world – who just want to see their casino football team play some exciting casino football and win a game and give them that joy that only casino football can bring casino
“Because, you know, when you score in that last minute to win a game of casino football, you don’t care who is next to you casino
Do you?“You don’t care where they come from, what they think or what they believe casino
You are united as one for that moment casino
That’s what casino football provides casino
”Postecoglou did also reveal support is on hand for Israel international Manor Solomon, who is currently out with a knee injury while the war is impacting his home nation casino
“Not specifically (about the war) casino
I have spoken to Manor because he’s dealing with a couple of things casino
He has just had his surgery as well casino
I have been helping him through that process,” the Spurs boss revealed casino
“Again, it’s not about me trying to extract information from him casino
I am there casino
“He’s going through what he is going through, like a lot of people in his position casino
Hopefully like I said, he feels like there’s a place here where he feels if he needs some extra help or guidance, we can give it to him casino
