Final: The Official Federer vs Nadal Live Match Thread

[BiGGieStuFF]

I was talking about the FH error not the smash ^^

Oh sorry.

 

[Count Grishnackh]

Well, as a Nadal fan I point to that second set where he was serving for it. He didn't have enough belief and he made mistakes. That's tennis and these things happen. Credit to Fed for taking it. It may have been the match decider.

 

[skip1969]

US open courts do appear to be faster than these grass courts at Wimby.

i think a lot of the top men will be looking to make an impact at the us open this year. cos so many of them got spanked here at wimbledon. they have something to prove now during the hardcourt season. they need to prove that it isn't all about fed and nadal. both of them better be ready!!

 

[Shabazza]

wow great return and volley 0:30 for Fed take the double break and end this match!

 

[BiGGieStuFF]

wow awesome backhand by nadal

 

[skip1969]

great shots from both players in this game. could be a HUGE game for both of them!

 

[Count Grishnackh]

I don't think his legs are failing him at all. He plays 5 hour matches on clay, this ain't gonna get him tired. Fed's experience and slice may win this match today.

 

[Shabazza]

wow awesome backhand by nadal

Yep his BH is gotten so strong esp. on the defensive run!

yeah, he doesn't look tired at all to me.

 

[Shabazza]

wow great FH from Fed BP!!!!

Maybe not a match decider but cheh yeah.

 

[Breaker]

Here's where we see what Roger has between his legs.

 

[Exile]

Once again, Vamos Rogi!

 

[crazylevity]

double break!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Klippy]

OK I think feds will take it away now. Oh well. Nadal had a great run.

 

[Lakoste]

Fed breaks again, its over (basically)

 

[skip1969]

fed actually at the net to volley away the winner for the second break.

 

[Shabazza]

OK!! Now Roger is playing his best tennis 5:1 serving for the match!

 

[florida88]

Over..........

 

[Shabazza]

2 easy UE Fed don't choke!!!!

 

[BiGGieStuFF]

Break out the champagne. This match is just about over. This will be pretty big for Fed's mind. May be crucial for the FEDERER-NADAL final at the US Open.

That's right i'm predicting it. federer-nadal in the usopen finals.

What will be the odds on that? 3 GS finals with the same 2 players in a row?

 

[Shabazza]

damn another mishit 2 BP's Nadal

 

[dmastous]

Not so fast.....

 

[Count Grishnackh]

What I want to know from Fed fans. They were saying everytime Nadal won a match here that is was green clay, so now Fed is gonna win. Is it still green clay or is it back to grass again?

 

[skip1969]

nadal breaks right back.

 

[crazylevity]

it's not over...Nadal gets a break back

 

[BiGGieStuFF]

Here's where we see what Roger has between his legs.

I don't know if we want to see that. Though I don't think they'll escort him off the court like the streaker.

 

[Breaker]

Apparently not much..

 

[Shabazza]

What a ****ty service game come on FEd break him again you already did it 6 times in this match!

 

[Klippy]

No big deal. Feds will break him now. sit back and RELAX. feds has got everything cool

 

[AngeloDS]

Nadal got very lucky that break, barely getting Federer's serves back with no pace forcing Federer to be on the offensive and causing him to mishit and what-not.

 

[BiGGieStuFF]

it's not over...Nadal gets a break back

Yeah but he's still another break down. if it was one break I'd still say he has a chance but double break down to Fed. It would have to be an implosion of epic proportions for Fed to lose this set.

But you're right. it's Nadal. NEVER SAY NEVER

 

[Count Grishnackh]

When Fed wins today, it will show that both of these guys have solidified their dominance on clay and grass. Hard court will be the tiebreaker.

 

[tennisfreak]

I don't think we can ever say its over when Nadal on the other side of the net. That is said for a lot of people but it never more true than with Nadal.

 

[florida88]

What I want to know from Fed fans. They were saying everytime Nadal won a match here that is was green clay, so now Fed is gonna win. Is it still green clay or is it back to grass again?

Nope still green clay. Bye bye 60.

well...this time it will be too hard even for Rafa

 

[Shabazza]

omg lucky net for Nadal 30:15...

 

[Klippy]

cheap shot. lucky

 

[Count Grishnackh]

Nope still green clay. Bye bye 60.

Bull**it

hey count, even though the match isn't over, i was gonna thank everyone on this thread for watching the match, and KEEPING IT REAL. i'm so sick of all the fanboy b*llshit and all the stupid comments and predictions that have led up to this match.

this match has been competitive and BOTH nadal and federer have shown why they are the best in the game right now. i know general discussion will be full of trash talking once the final is over. but both players showed their strengths today and have a lot to be proud of.

 

[Klippy]

Ok. Feds will get it on the serve.

 

[florida88]

Bull**it

Why ask then?

Amen!!!
30:0 for Federer!!

 

[Count Grishnackh]

Fed will win, fair and square. No excuses. I just don't wanna hear the green clay excuse.

 

[Exile]

you know, this is a random thought, fed almost has emo hair...

 

[Klippy]

Mr. Cool is back on track

 

[florida88]

Champion!! 4x
