He is great isn't he?
Would love if he could win to be honest. Obviously, that doesn't look likely at all, even if he hadn't played for 6 hours here..
The problem for this is for the final to be more level, it will need to be a marathon match between Nadal and Djokovic that finishes tomorrow. Then you'll have two knackered players playing which probably won't be great.
Nadal or Djokovic win this comfortably tonight and they'll be fresh and will probably destroy him.

well yeah. 29 when he won the AO, 31 when he won US Open. there are probably better examples, though.
Is it me or does Rafa look a bit fat?
Gutted there’s no Today at Wimbledon with big Claire Balding.
Just kidding I fecking hate her

It's a joy to watch these two guys play tennis.
What a match already
So good.
So good.Djokovic has started incredibly.
Match earlier was better imo
Nadal needs to step his game up massively. That first set was very comfortable for Novak who is playing extremely well.
Nadal's sweating like heck. Djokovic looks like the guy from the deodorant ad
Novak shows up in beast mode.
Every Nadal service game is a battle for him. I can't see this ending well
He's having no joy returing Novak's serves either.

Bound to happen
That was some return.
Nice break back.
Novak on F.I.R.E.
Wow this is incredible tennis

Now please hold..
Now please hold..
Nadal on F.I.R.E.
What great tennis

Just when you'd think Nadal has no gears left to turn up to...
Solid hold by Nadal for the 5-2 and this is nothing like the previous match.
They're both destroying the tennis balls
This has some of the best tennis I ever saw
I waited fecking 7 hours for this and I‘m just glad they deliver

They were missing all time classic on grass to go with their 2012 AO and 2013 FO epics.
Nadal holds his nerve what a fecking match
Vamos!!
I imagine it will be one more set for tonight.
fecking hell, that rally there.
Nadal's just persistent as feck isn't he?

His forehand has been incredible since the last set. Some of the shots are ridiculous.
Nadal legit started walking to his seat before Djokovic even served it on that last ace
Oh my god what a forehand
Both players serving fairly well this set.
Nadal is absolutely hot right now
Rafa has the best looking forehand in the business
what a point!Now break Rafa!
Proceeds to lose the next 4 points and the game
Now break Rafa!
