The men’s national tennis team of Moldova didn’t qualify for the Davis Cup Europe/Africa Zone Group I. Maxim Dubarenco lost the decisive duel to Martin Pedersen of Denmark in five sets, IPN reports.

Dubarenco was beaten by 3-6, 7-6, 6-4, 3-6, 7-5. Last Friday, he lost another singles match. The two victories for Moldova were scored by Radu Albot, but he didn’t manage to win the doubles match alongside the same Dubarenco.

Moldova thus failed to quality for the Davis Cup Europe/Africa Zone Group I for the second consecutive year. Last year, the Moldovan tennis squad lost to the team of Portugal at home.
