This match wasn't streamed, so I'm not sure if Nieminen got injured at 6-4 5-3 or not. But Cuevas reeled off 10 straight games to book his place in the 3R vs the winner of the Lopez/Roger-Vasselin match.
He shouldn't retire before a Davis Cup tie against Portugal IMOLosing 10 straight games in Cuevas on hard court is absolutely pathetic.
If Nieminen isn't injured he should retire in shame.
