Man. Soderling could have been more patient with those last couple of points. Damn!

Way to go, Federer!

clutch serving from fed in that tiebreak.. that was a nailbiter. good effort from Soderling, great match.

Stupid tight points by Sod, but major kudos to him for making a match out of nothing.

But, I really would have loved to see how Fed reacted in the 5th and Sod really could have won that tiebreak.

soderling would've had an extremely great chance of upsetting fed if the first set was competitive, imo...
 
I dont care, in this form Roger will lose to a charged up Rafa Nadal in the final. Vamos Rafa, pooey to the overrated Federer.

I hate Federer, he seems so fresh, no sweat at all after more than 2 hours of play. I start sweating just after 10 min :(.

It's natrual to get tight. So, the shanked forehand and the forehand return on Fed's serve, I sorta understand. But, I really wish Sod would have taken that backhand he missed down the line crosscourt instead.

Does anybody else love seeing serves being blasted under pressure, or is it just me?

I like it,grew up watching that kind of tennis basically.As a kid Wimbledon was the only slam that was always televisied in my country.

Jeez good game overall. I was rooting for Soderling because honestly, the first 2 sets were just so boring... I wanted to see some GOOD tennis and I got that in the end. great 3rd and 4th sets. I wanted a 5th but I'm pleased with the second half of the match.

I didn't really care who won, as long as they could entertain me.

Good win for Fed, I thought he would take it in 3.
Robin tried pretty hard but came up well short.

Now Roger knows how Nadal felt at FO, with Soderling hitting everything in sight. But unlike Nadal, Fed withstood the charge.

I hope no one calls soderling a mug or anything like that. He really hung in there and fought to the end imo, perhaps got a little tight, but still. Kudos to him.

next time soderling, next time.
