KEY POINTS:
The international media are labelling race four as classic America's Cup but they're not necessary talking about the appeal from Team New Zealand.
The International Herald Tribune is calling Alinghi's win "a return to business as usual for the event".
If the paper is writing Team New Zealand off already, it is labelling this America's Cup as the tightest and most entertaining since the Australian 4-3 win in 1983.
SailJuice.com says the win was an important morale booster for Alinghi and has put a halt to Team New Zealand's momentum.
The article says the race got off to "a peach of a start" with Alinghi's Ed Baird redeeming himself and Jon Bilger making up for "yesterday's oversight", referring to the wind shifts.
It ends by looking at the appeal: "Has Emirates Team New Zealand spotted something that the measurers missed, or are they just trying to ruin their opponents' day of rest? Could be some mind games going on here".
The London-based Timesonline said Alinghi was expertly skippered with the Swiss defenders "putting on a dominant display".
The BBC follow suit. "Alinghi established an early lead after a fiercely contested opening".
The article says the win was much needed by Alinghi "after two successive defeats had left them trailing the challengers".
