Errani and Cibulkova reach final

Dominika Cibulkova will take on Sara Errani in Sunday's final of the Barcelona Open after both claimed emphatic victories on Saturday.

Cibulkova, the 22-year-old Slovakian third seed, coasted past Romanian Sorana Cirstea, winning 6-1 6-1 inside an hour.

Cirstea did not hold serve at any stage, breaking Cibulkova to claim her two games, and that was also the theme in the semi-final between Italian Errani and Spain's Carla Suarez Navarro.

Seventh seed Errani had few difficulties, apart from dropping three games on her serve, as she crushed Suarez Navarro 6-1 6-2.

Errani is targeting her second clay-court title of the season this week, having triumphed in Acapulco.
