Vamos Rafa !

Rafa defeated Roger Federer in 3 sets: 5-7, 6-4, 6-3 at Western & Southern Open after 2 hours and 13 minutes of play and he is now in semifinals.

After the match against Roger, Rafa said:  "I think my movement starts to be better, more intensity. I started to put more balls inside on the return, and I started to have more times control of the ball from the baseline with my forehand, something that didn't happen the first set and a half...But the match was there. It was very close. He had a good chance in the second. I think I played a good few points in important moments."

In Cincinnati semifinal, Rafa will play against Tomas Berdych of Czech Republic. On head to head, Rafa leads Berdych: 14-3. Their last match was this year in Rome semifinal, where Rafa won in straight sets: 6-2, 6-4.
