Comments :

1. First set Federer was dominant, with Federer playing really well; Djoko not playing well . But the match came really alive in the 2nd set. The 2nd set was a really high quality one with some amazing rallies/shotmaking. I had seen this before, but had forgotten how good the 2nd set was.

To give an idea statistically, in the 2nd set : Federer had 32W +errors forced to only 9 UEs !
Djokovic had 19W+errors forced to only 3 UEs !

2. Federer's FH was clicking really well, BH was good, was moving really well, was excellent at the net. Serve was decent, but not great. Return was great.
Djokovic's FH was pretty good, nearly up there with fed's FH, but not quite. His BH actually let him down in the 1st set. improved in the 2nd set, but was still not that great. didn't serve that well in the 1st set, but served well enough in the 2nd set. Was moving pretty well. Return was great.

3. 2nd game of the 1st set, Djokovic DFed on BP.

4. 2nd set, 1st game great game by djoko to break. fed was up 40-15 ..great I/O BH by djoko, fed somehow gets it back, djoko hits I/O Fh winner
djoko gets deep bh return, weak reply from fed fh, djoko puts away fh for a winner
CC FH return winner by djoko on 2nd serve
on BP, gets back wide serve, counters I/O FH from fed by moving nicely to the BH side, elicting volley error from fed

Then at 1-3, its fed's turn to break back with a great return game. couple of FH winners ...on BP, long rally with some good hitting and finally excellent low volley from fed to force BH error from Djokovic

then at 3-3, federer gets to 0-40 on djoko's serve, but djoko saves all 3 BPs with some help of fed not really pushing the issue.

but at 4-4, federer puts in another excellent return game to break Djokovic.

I remember it was a common pattern in this rivalry during the early years that Federer won the 1st set easily and then had a letdown in concentration at the beginning of the 2nd set with losing his serve immediately.

Normally he overcame it by still barely winning the 2nd set or closing it out in the 3rd, but sometimes he totally lost it (like Miami 2009 with the racket smashing, Rome 2009 or the US Open meetings 2010 and 2011).

Of course also Djokovic himself got better as the matches went on, but at the beginning he looked very ordinary quite often that days.

true, that happened in USO 2008, Cincy 09 as well.

But in this match, there was no significant lapse from Federer really. Just an excellent return game from Djokovic.

Had taken down more stats :

Errors forced with FH wing :
Federer :
6 from Djokovic's FH wing (including 1 with a return)
4 from Djokovic's BH wing (including 2 with returns, 1 with a volley)

Djokovic:
8 from Federer's FH wing (including 1 with a return)
0 from Federer's BH wing

Errors forced with BH wing :
Federer :
2 from Djokovic's FH wing (including 1 with a slice)
2 from Djokovic's BH wing (including 1 with a volley)

Djokovic:
1 from Federer's FH wing (including 1 with a volley)
2 from Federer's BH wing (including 1 with a slice)

Winners+errors forced from opponent to UEs from each wing :

FH wing :
Federer : 22 winners, 10 errors forced to 4 UEs
Djokovic: 10 winners, 8 errors forced to 6 UEs

BH wing :

Federer : 4 winners, 4 errors forced to 10 UEs
Djokovic: 2 winners, 3 errors forced to 11 UEs


Winners+forced errors to UEs apart from serve

Federer :
26 winners, 14 errors forced from Djokovic...............14 UEs

Djokovic:
12 winners, 11 errors forced from Federer ................11 UEs

 

[abmk]

So basically, just from the FH (not the FH wing), federer hit 16 winners, forced 6 errors from djoko's fh wing, 3 errors from djoko's bh wing and had only 4 UEs.

25 winners+errors forced to 4 UEs. That's a ridiculous stat.
Probably his best FH performance after his peak years.
Hell, this was definitely a peak performance.

 

[abmk]

Djokovic pretty good himself on the fh with 16 winners+errors forced to 6 UEs.

 

[Gonzo_style]

Djokovic's mind was already in the Belgrade arena.
The fact that Nadal won his sf match earlier that day against Murray was also a factor
He came with a white flag that evening
