Fed Vs Nadal - LIVE Match Thread

[ACE of Hearts]

The reason Nadal is in this match is his play but anyone who doesnt see whats going on is blind.This is not grass at all.

 

[Ronny]

4-1!!! fed is finally on the board

 

[i.Radical]

I will be upset if Fed just somehow turns his game around completely and does to Nadal what's getting done to him in the 5th -_-

 

[pound cat]

Let's face it Roger, it's a conspiracy ROTFL

 

[Purostaff]

here we go double break back at Nadal ><

 

[MichaelNadal]

I am LOVING this right now!! No matter what the FedHeads HAVE to give mr Nadal some respect!

 

[AngeloDS]

I see Federer's complaint really =p. These calls are incredibly close--we've seen in the past where HawkEye was incorrect as well as we've seen errors off of HawkEye (Remember when the ball looked out but was called in, and they had to make the adjustment to move the "court" to fit the call).

However, Nadal is playing very well and really in a good comfort zone =o. It's nice that this is going to the fifth set.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

The bounces on this stuff looks more higher then the FO, go figure.

 

[i.Radical]

Omfg Hes Injured???? Noooooooooooo

 

[iplaybetter]

nadal receiving medical attention on his knee
time out called !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Fed needs to let this set go and be ready for the 5th set.

 

[i.Radical]

This is BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

 

[Alafter]

did fed really cry? my god

 

[Dilettante]

Even in the 70's, Borg said that burned grass worked like clay in some ways and that helped him a lot. You should have expected that.

 

[cujays]

what is nadal gettin treatment for????????

 

[Tu Madre]

I hope Nadal is alright!

 

[NogaroS4]

man what a bad time to have a possible injury

 

[JLyon]

come on both sides quit the complaining and enjoy a great match for what it is.
Hope Nadal is not injured as that would put a damper on the finals.

Let's face it Roger, it's a conspiracy ROTFL

Oh ny, rafda has his knee looked at by trainer.

The plot thickens

 

[iriraz]

After wimbledon was won by Ivanisevic and beginning with hewitt-nalbandian we only see wimbledon from the back.It`s obvious the green is not as fast as the Sampras era

 

[RedWeb]

Nadal would drag a bloody stump back out there.

 

[MichaelNadal]

Im sure he will be ok.... he played the last game great with the injury

 

[Purostaff]

what is nadal gettin treatment for????????

On the last point where Fed aced Nadal, I knew something was up with Nad because he didn't react like he would normally do.

 

[AngeloDS]

The problem now is Rafael Nadal's injury. If this does go to a fifth set, how is Nadal going to respond?

 

[crazylevity]

Honestly, in such a big match and on such a big point, anyone would be pissed if Hawkeye called a ball in when it was really likely that it was out. The slow motion frame by frame showed it was very likely out.

 

[TheMagicRacquet]

After watching the first three sets, I have to openly admit that Nadal is playing better tennis (despite the 2:1 score). Federer seems to be really nervous and Nadal is making simple mistakes on the big points (in the tiebreaks).

Hope Federer wins, but Nadal seems to be on the right track. I won't be too disappointed if Rafa wins though, because I think he does deserve it this time around.

 

[pound cat]

and nadal bounces back to the court..and fixes his sox

 

[cucio]

And now Nadal receiving medical aid??? This is staged. And, quoting danhtuhoc, the hawk eye missed that call because it is probably wearing a hat.

 

[i.Radical]

WELL TOO BAD IT WAS IN, GET THE **** OVER IT

AND YESSSSSSSSS AHAHHAHAHAHA
fed's trying to take advantage of Nadal buy running him around and he get's his ass kicked

 

[Objective Danny]

Nadal will be alright he's all man.

 

[armand]

I always root for the underdog and am rooting for Nadal, but poor Roger, he must be stressed out something awful. He sounded like he was really whinning or possibly even crying.

 

[MichaelNadal]

i love seeing federer struggle.......

 

[Ronny]

haha thats soo harsh

 

[i.Radical]

i love seeing him strugggle too MUAHAHAHahahahah

 

[MichaelNadal]

Ok now the leg starts to scare me

 

[i.Radical]

omfg this is not good DOUBLE FAULT? He's clearly not well.....

 

[i.Radical]

AND THEN HE FIRES A BACKHAND WINNER LOl

 

[iplaybetter]

if fed can move nadal around and agrivate his knee, even if he looses the set he has gained from it

 

[MichaelNadal]

Ok a hold.....

 

[Ronny]

5-1 to nadal.....

 

[Fries-N-Gravy]

ok that backhand is crap. seriously get some depth, step into that. his backhand tends to bounce at the service line, what the hell is that?

 

[MEAC_ALLAMERICAN]

Nadal's knee...

Could Federer be the Daniela Hantuchova of the ATP?

Hmmm....

Stay tuned folks..:grin:

 

[i.Radical]

seriously though, if nadal's knee doesn't hold up.... things are not going to look good

 

[crazylevity]

Why does Nadal serve sometimes with platform and sometimes with pinpoint stance?

 

[AngeloDS]

Nadal should quit if it's a serious knee injury. I'd like to see him be able to play down the road; don't risk it now @ so young. A serious injury could keep him out for awhile.

Knee injuries are pretty serious (for those who have had them). You never return the same after one.

 

[MasturB]

Damnit. Rafa is hurt. I don't like this.

 

[MichaelNadal]

Ok Nads all u gotta do is hold!

 

[InvisibleSoul]

Wow, this match is too much. What a rollercoaster ride.

 

[Ronny]

5-2!!!! FEd Holds

 

[Fries-N-Gravy]

federer is way too tentative against nadal. if his serve wasn't so incredible today he would've been blown away by now
