Twice better

Rafa reached the final act at Australian Open after he defeated Roger Federer in 4 sets: 6-7, 6-2, 7-6, 6-4.

Federer started the match more confident and won the first set at tie-break after he leaded Nadal with 4-1, but Rafa responded and pushed the game to tie-break. Rafa admited that Roger was more aggresive in the beginning of the match.

The pressure of losing the first set didn`t affect Rafa that`s why  he won in style the second set: 6-2. The 3rd and 4th set were tough for Nadal because Federer even if he showed that is a little bit tired, he played well.

Despite all the facts, Rafa demonstrated once again that even if he is not the best shape, plays awsome in the important matches.
His best result here is when he won the trophy in 2009 against the same opponent that he won today. A semifinal like a final. Well done, Rafa !!!

After this big victory the overall score between Rafa and Roger is 18-9 for Rafa. So, twice better! :)

In the final act in Melbourne, Rafa will play either Novak Djokovic or Andy Murray.
