Andy Murray demolishes Joao Sousa to reach quarter-finals in Dubai

Andy Murray eased into the Dubai Tennis Championship quarter-finals with a straight sets win over Joao Sousa, losing just two games during the match.

The Portugal player was no challenge for Murray, who recorded a 6-0 6-2 win, and struggled to find answers to his opponent's excellent court craft and strong defence. The pair met at the Australian Open just last month, where Murray also eased to a straight sets victory. 

It took just 21 minutes for Murray to close out the first set 6-0, winning 80 per cent of his first serve points, smashing four aces and punishing Sousa's serve with excellent returns.

The second set continued in much of the same fashion with Murray breaking Sousa's serve and holding confidently. The 50th-ranked player finally got a game on the board in the third of the second set to save himself the embarrassment of a double bagel match.
