Wimbledon 2019 Final: Novak Djokovic [1] vs Roger Federer [2]

[AceSalvo]

Tactical tank like Fed did to Nadal?

Watch Djoko come charging in the 3rd and take the very life out of this match.

 

[Thetouch]

What wonder all the pathetic Roger "fans" who turned off the match are doing right now?

like I said a few days ago, WORST fans a man like Federer does not deserve to have

 

[robthai]

Is Novaks shoulder injured? He hasnt been the same since that slip

 

[Lozo1016]

Fun fact: Djokovic has never been bagelled on grass.

 

[RF-18]

SHOCKING from Novak. After that 1st set he put himself in such a Good position.. Now this could go either way.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Fed shouldn't spend too much energy in this set after these two breaks. Just hold.

 

[Charlemagne]

What wonder all the pathetic Roger "fans" who turned off the match are doing right now?

Dude really needed that first set. Idk, the way he lost it isn't a good sign regardless of what happens in this second set

 

[GFoederer]

Novak looks exhausted.

 

[Pablo1989]

I prefer the Halep-Serena than this.

 

[zagor]

This match lol. Anyone claiming they're playing as good as ever from now on deserves a slap.

 

[TheIntrovert]

Novak also copying the Kyrgios tactic after seeing fed do it on Friday

 

[Badabing888]

just win the set Roger. Double break is good enough.

 

[Rago]

Looks like Fed will win the 2nd. Winner of the 3rd set will win the match most likely (shock horror what a bold prediction).

Really going out on a limb there....

 

[-NN-]

Djokovic isn't really bothered by the slice these days. Apart from playing like my mother in the 2nd set he's the complete player....

hmm

 

[OrangeOne]

Statistically the winner of the first set is more likely to win the third than the winner of the second. Especially in those big 4 match-ups.

Statistics also say that the big 3/4 almost never go up a double break aga8nst each other....

 

[ACE of Hearts]

If this is easy 2nd set Federer might still have a chance. Very little energy expended so far.

You know he’s gonna have the loose service game in the 3rd set.

 

[celito]

Djokovic bet money game would be 1 x 1 after 2 sets.

 

[Centrius]

What the heck?! Djoker is gifting this set to Federer.

 

[robthai]

Djokovic will break Federer in his first service game of the 3rd set.

 

[SonicNirvana]

Cold....bird flu....SARS

Lmao

This is Rome final 2019 Djokovic . @Hitman your thoughts.

Federer's variety is taking a lot out of Djokovic, there is mental fatigue showing here. He constantly having to change what he is doing in response to Federer's attack.

 

[Zhilady]

Djokovic is clearly tanking this set, but why? It's the ducking final, he doesn't have to save himself for anything after this. Unlike Federer in the semifinal, who had to save himself for the final in case he won.

 

[robthai]

No way! Ever heard of momentum?

It didnt help Nadal, did it?

 

[Terry Tibbs]

Federer seems to be quite often letting the ball get too close to him when running around the forehand. Should have more faith in the backhand.

 

[CremoCream]

Yes but I'm also a realist. His chances were pinned on winning that 1st set.

You’re not a Fed fan. You probably thought he wouldnt win #18, #19, #20 either huh? Didnt think he could beat rafa at the auzzie? Come on man. The dudes accomplished the most out of any player and has overcomed all sorts of odds. Who would of thought 10 straight GS finals was real? Or 237 straight weeks at #1 lol

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Fed better playbwell

How often does Novak tank a set intentionally in a slam

lmfao

The guy hasn’t played well. He was fortunate to win that first set.

 

[tudwell]

Statistically the winner of the first set is more likely to win the third than the winner of the second. Especially in those big 4 match-ups.

Interesting. But doesn’t mean it’s impossible. How heavy is the correlation?

 

[alex527]

Lmao. Ah, there's the fh shank we've come to know and love.

 

[Deon Sanders]

Odds that Novak comes back to win this set?

 

[tennis_pro]

He has never won best of 5 sets match against Djokovic after losing the 1st set.

Omg it's a new match, who cares about this s**t, you can't possibly say there is 0 chance for Federer to win this final when the odds are dead even at the moment. Are the bookies absolute idiots? If so, go and bet a fortune on Djokovic and make easy money if it's so obvious.

Not so sure now, huh?

 

[BrokenGears]

Well he won a game

 

[Rago]

This match lol. Anyone claiming they're playing as good as ever from now on deserves a slap.

They are. Especially Nadal since he navigated the toughest draw with the loss of just a single set.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Calm down people. Novak did the same in the 2011 Wimbledon final.

 

[augustobt]

Is Djokovic doing what Fed did against Rafa in the 2nd set?

Yes

 

[Fed881981]

Folks, it’s all about the 3rd set. They split the first two sets in their previous 3 GS finals. Djokovic won the 3rd each time. Fed better change that today if he wants to win.

But, let’s first finish this one.

 

[RS]

Djokovic has really dipped this set.

 

[Breakpointerer]

4-1

 

[fundrazer]

Djokovic isn't really bothered by the slice these days. Apart from playing like my mother in the 2nd set he's the complete player....

hmm

Well the slice dtl to Novak's forehand was setting Rog up pretty well, but he has been failing to kappatalize.

Forehand is all over the place at times.

 

[mightyrick]

This match lol. Anyone claiming they're playing as good as ever from now on deserves a slap.

Oh, but don't you know? They've added incredible weapons since then?

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Feds variety has troubled Djoko so far. We will see if Djoko has the answer! At least Djoko stops the rot winning that game!

 

[AceSalvo]

This match lol. Anyone claiming they're playing as good as ever from now on deserves a slap.

Fed's level is good.

Not sure whats going on with Djoko.

 

[celito]

Djokovic spent too much energy in that 1st set .... ball bouncing.

 

[Deleted member 762343]

Novak Chokovic.

 

[robthai]

Odds that Novak comes back to win this set?

probably better odds than Federer winning the match from here. That first set was everything for Federer.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Djokovic has really dipped this set.

Ya think?

 

[Charlemagne]

Egg is at like 50 percent and it's still going to be level at one. I really like Egg but I hate Federer Egg matches for this reason alone. Fed really makes me upset in these matches.

are we calling ND Egg now? Serious question

 

[Steve0904]

Djoker is still a decent sized favourite here. Can't see Novak playing 2 bad sets in a row.

 

[AceSalvo]

I am just waiting for the 3rd set.

 

[Standaa]

they BOTH are playing worse in this set

fed too

 

[Tennisgods]

Commentary watch: on BBC , Castle asks Boris how the final differs from the rest of the tournament. Boris starts his reply with: “well, it’s the last match of the tournament...”
worth the licence fee alone...

 

[robthai]

You know he’s gonna have the loose service game in the 3rd set.

It will be his first service game in the third set.
