Hmmmmmm. Did they seem to be enjoying themselves, or was it a bit tense?

For the most part they were enjoying themselves. Turning point was very early on in the match was when they had 3 consecutive break points at 1-0 in the first, but then couldn't take any of them. Score line was really a tad harsh on them.

That's good to hear.
