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

[zagor]

Sad to see some Fed fans being really negative and claiming he's playing bad. Djokovic is the greatest returner ever and hasn't been able to touch Fed's serve. The sad thing is, Roger is playing very well, but Djoker is just a wall. He invariably is.

True, credit to Novak. I just feel Fed could have done much better in the two breakers.

 

[Milehigh5280]

I'm feeling better after Novak took that last set but this is still anyone's match

 

[canta_Brian]

Fed looks shattered

 

[Mark-Touch]

When Fed starts shanking balls like that you know his mind has started wandering...
4th set...

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djoko great point there! He’s starting to flow now! Playing more freely!

 

[icedevil0289]

Djokovic appears more clutch but it's generally because he has more margin with which to execute his game IMO.

yeah thats true, any chance fed gets the 4th? i honestly feel so deflated right now. i msorry to novak fans but i genuinely think fed was more solid, but yes at the end of the day it doesnt matter what matters ibeing better on big points

 

[robthai]

Djokovic literally stole those 2 sets. But Federer allowed himself to get robbed

 

[romeo8880]

Federer has no one to blame but himself. The guy always chokes the important points against novak. Has been like that for the last 8 years or so.

It’s so true. Outplays him the majority of the match and then cracks in the biggest moments

 

[mightyrick]

Djokovic is just toying with Federer now in these rallies. Light slicing and then pulling the trigger.

 

[Deleted member 765152]

Fed to switch to Clash 108 in the offseason

 

[I Am Finnish]

Joe can Only win tiebreaks i see

 

[nikshalamov12332]

Go tell Federer that then...

Federer is not a pusher unlike some player

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Well Federer better hold and pick up an extra wind. That 3rd set let out all the emotions for the guy.

 

[TheIntrovert]

Novak is making roger play that extra ball Rafa wasn’t

 

[swordtennis]

Match might not be the best match but serious shot variety and racket skills out there. Fed has not faced a break point. He is doing just fine. Lol.

 

[GFoederer]

Joker serving well now...

 

[tennisaddict]

Novak is probably going to win this match with 0 BP .

And Fed would have BP every set.

 

[Terry Tibbs]

Quite sad really that Fed's genius just can't overcome this dull as dishwater style of play. Even more tragic is that Djokovic will probably end up GOAT.

 

[Duncan Donuts]

Fed has been the better player in every set...yet he’s down 2-1. Djokovic in 4.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Fed will always have BOAT title, even if Nole takes GOAT by surpassing the slam total beating up likes of Tsisipas, RBA and Old-Err0rer

Wrong

 

[Sysyphus]

LOL

Djokovic won just 18% of return points (6 points) in the third set, yet won the set.

trauma

 

[Tennisgods]

Fed’s level has really dropped now. Age 37 has plenty to do with that.
Got 3 very good sets out of him today though.

 

[Steve0904]

Federer's level has dropped a lot now

Yeah. If Novak can get a break I'd say that's it.

 

[GabeT]

Novak is probably going to win this match with 0 BP .

And Fed would have BP every set.

 

[DRII]

yea right!

Djokovic is the perfect machine when he needs to be. Have to say, even with the chances Fed has had, he needed to be basically perfect 100% of the time in set 1 and 3. That's too much to ask, even if you lament some errors on crucial moments.

yea right!

 

[Deon Sanders]

Joker serving well now...

Will only take a couple loose points from Roger on serve and this one is over

 

[BrokenGears]

Federer has some of the worst fans I've seen. You guys trash him so much...

 

[Lleytonstation]

Out of 10, we never saw djoker get above level 7/8, and he still will win WC with only losing 3 sets...

 

[gn]

Loki in da house.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

I don’t wanna hear that when the guy has about 4 to 5 Unforced backhand errors in the tiebreaker. Novak is just more steady and doesn’t commit errors .

Yes! Exactly!

 

[Deleted member 77403]

Federer is not a pusher unlike some player

And now he is 2 sets to 1 down...

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

Come on Novak! One more set to go! Win this set and get this over with soon!

 

[NatF]

He has a chance as long as he keeps protecting his serve, he needs a lapse from Djokovic to get into a return game though - that or he needs to catch lightning in a bottle and connect with some big returns.

 

[wangs78]

Fed's getting sloppy. Looks like he's lost some focus - I wouldn't blame him as he should have won that 3rd set before the tiebreak.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Beating Nadal and Joco B2B is too much an ask for anyone

I am still on cloud 9 he beat Rafa, I expected a loss here in four. He's played and served brilliantly except.... in the clutch moments. He's been this way for years now, he's 38, what does anyone expect?

 

[Dilexson]

Federer please take this to a tiebreak if you're losing it.
Just for the lols.

 

[mightyrick]

Out of 10, we never saw djoker get above level 7/8, and he still will win WC with only losing 3 sets...

It's worse than that. We saw Djokovic tank an entire set against Federer and he still wins in 4.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

What a shot from Novak!

 

[zagor]

Novak smelling blood. Great DTL BH.

 

[Deleted member 77403]

Beautiful BHDTL by Djokovic

 

[tennisaddict]

Fed didnt drop serve at Paris Indoors and lost.

Another one here ?

 

[celito]

Fraud is unbroken but he is 2-1 sets down hmm

Scoring system is wrong. Game should be over.

 

[Charlemagne]

I'm feeling better after Novak took that last set but this is still anyone's match

oh please

 

[Tennisgods]

Truth. Neither player are playing near their top level.

Then quite simply, i’d advise that you never watch Fed again! It doesn’t get better than that first two sets at 37 years old!!!

 

[GFoederer]

And here it is...

 

[Gary Duane]

Every big match this forums poos its pants. It's utter rubbish. A forum which has deteriorated in quality in almost all aspects since a few years back, with this being at the top of the list of insufferable flaws.

As long at it's free I won't complain. I figure with 55 pages and counting we're only see half the messages people are trying post. After this match the only problem will be a suicide watch for fans of the loser, most like Fed fans. I had about 50 alternate plans ready for stress management.

The fun will be seeing how fans spin this after it's over!

 

[KINGROGER]

Wrong

Nole is close to his best here and he’s barely getting past a Fed who’s probably 60% of his best.

Fed remains BOAT.

 

[Steve0904]

Federer is so friggin' unclutch in tie-breaks it's laughable!

It's all over bar the shouting. No way is Fed gonna come back and take this in 5 sets. All Djoko has to do is keep holding serve and wait for the next breaker!!

Against Djokovic in this particular match, yes. Over his whole career and even in other matches against Novak, the notion is laughable.

 

[OhYes]

Man, I utterly detest Djokovic. He has blocked Federer so many times. Drives me mental.

Let me write this down...
