Monte-Carlo Masters R16: Novak Djokovic vs. Lorenzo Musetti

[Bubcay]

Crowd you don't make Djokovic angry....

They never learn, do they?

 

[NoleFam]

Italians annoyed Djokovic. They should have stayed quiet. Lol.

 

[nolefam_2024]

He will if healthy

Then Monaco results don't matter. Raz is first favorite for RG.

 

[Hitman]

Then Monaco results don't matter. Raz is first favorite for RG.

Like he was last year

Italians annoyed Djokovic. They should have stayed quiet. Lol.

[nolefam_2024]

Take the mussa out in this game. Will be a huge blow if this happens.

 

[Bubcay]

Awesome point. Novak reading Lorenzo like a book..

 

[NaDjoFed]

what a return by Nole

 

[Hitman]

Djokovic BH is not firing today.

 

[Kralingen]

Hatovic always seems to suck on clay. Except for RG 13 I guess

[Hitman]

Lol

 

[Kralingen]

It never fails. What a choker Musetti is lol….

Musetti is in great form. All aspects of his game seem to be peaking.

First and foremost, his trademark pant-$h!tting.

 

[NoleFam]

Musetti started off hot and then reverted to his average clay level. Djokovic was not playing that well and the crowd annoyed him, and then he started playing better and takes the set. I've seen this before.

 

[Hitman]

Idiots never realize....you don't anger Djokovic.

 

[Bubcay]

Idiots never realize....you don't anger Djokovic.

 

[mightyjeditribble]

Why did Musetti feel the need to play the drop at 0-30?

 

[NoleFam]

Djokovic is really hammering Musetti's backhand now.

 

[alexio]

a break happening

 

[Pmasterfunk]

Is this turning into a blowout? I smell bakery products on the way.

 

[Bubcay]

Breakovic strikes again..

 

[marc45]

Musetti's a bit of a fraud

 

[Hitman]

BH is back now

 

[Kralingen]

Yep, called this pre match. The Djokovic who showed up last year was badly lacking match practice and focus, he almost lost to that Gakov guy. Musetti on the other hand has gone the other way mentally, somehow even more chokey now than ever.

Will be interested to see how Novak navigates the QF as he’s got a real chance of winning this tournament now…

 

[RS]

Not watching how is the match?

 

[NoleFam]

What a stupid service game after getting the break. Two dumb decisions at net from Djokovic.

 

[GabeT]

Was about to post a “will Novak win next 3 RGs” thread. Now will change to “Is Novak Finnish?” after Musetti breaks

 

[alexio]

a cute picture...pretty woman rockin a stroller with baby..

Not watching how is the match?

Musetti outplayed Djokovic for a lot of the first set but choked it.

 

[Bubcay]

Not watching how is the match?

Djokovic up and down, Musetti mainly down and down....

 

[alexio]

cmon gioco break it again

 

[nolefam_2024]

If Djokovic plays even 1 year for most countries he will break all of their records in a single year. He is that great even at 36

 

[Bubcay]

Another break...

 

[nolefam_2024]

Another break...

This is Novak at his good level. He can go up from this.

 

[Hitman]

Quality is not good in general.

 

[nolefam_2024]

Quality is not good in general.

He plays good whenever it's crunch time today. But yes he will play much better later

 

[NoleFam]

Quality is not good in general.

Yea I agree. Too up and down from both.

 

[Rosstour]

Djokovic put everything he has into that high forehand and Muchete still only missed it by a hair

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

Musetti with a few good shots, but ultimately Djokovic is too consistent for him.

 

[Nuclear Warhead Sinner]

Quality is not good in general.

Djoker came back to kill tennis again??

 

[nolefam_2024]

Oh no

No

 

[Rafa4LifeEver]

Musetti breaks to level at 3-4, lol what a clownfest this match has been so far.

 

[Bubcay]

C'mon Novak, it's way past midnight here. Why, oh why...?

 

[Hitman]

Scrappy match

 

[nolefam_2024]

This is just like last year. 4-2 up in the second and got broken.

He was 4-1 0-30 up I thought it was done right there. But now

Same story

 

[GodlessEndeavor]

Musetti breaks to level at 3-4, lol what a clownfest this match has been so far.

Very mixed quality that's for sure. Exciting though.
