Rafa had double break, fed gets one back

Rafa is a Catalan that supports Real Madrid. Go Fed!

Rafa just sussed out Rog in the 1st, then did as he pleased in the second.

Reckon it’ll be the same in third and fourth for a Rafa win.

Fed early break in 3rd set

The second was predominately a Federer mental capitulatuon IMO. So frustrating.

And lets see where his head goes from here mentally with the first break in the third

Fed seems switched on again, saving that break point on his first service game this set has settled him

Top end tennis is worthwhile watching. Awesome so far.

I may have got this incorrect

Not quite. He's from the Balearic islands (Mallorca) who speak Catalan but that's not Catalonia.

This match is as good as done. Panning out just as I had thought, nothing left in Rafa’s tank

There is always something left in Nadal tank in the 3rd and 4th sets and even when on empty he finds something. At 1-5 he is still pushing Federer who can’t close out the set

No good just pushing him if you continually choke on the big points, has had several break points and has been poor on all of them.

Reckon this is all set up for a rafa comeback.

Wow, where did that come from?

ace watching sports is an emotional wreck.

That was unbelievable!

In the last 10-15 minutes there has been little sign of that. Federer looked comfortable enough on serve up until that point and then just like that he is broken

What sort of sorcery was that???

I’m not too bad with tennis unless Rafa is playing, then I’m just a mess
