Break right back.
It's great as a rafa fan even being a set down

Federer just too good in the first. Hopfully Nadal can come back this set.

This game had been EPIC so far - I so want it 5
Federer is playing insane one point and dumping balls halfway down the net the next. Really strange match.

He is playing a quality opponent - there is a pressure that goes with that

That shot from Rafa was INSANE!!
That passing shot is shot of the tournament for me. Unbelievable.
Mind is blown.
That was ****ing ridiculous...
That last game.

That last game was just....WOW!
Yeah the commentators keep saying he looks so calm, but I honestly think that he looks tense and pretty stressed out, and he doesn't look like that when not playing Rafa.
Can you imagine what the international viewers would be thinking at the moment
This court is playing like an indoor court. Which Fed holds a 4-0 record against Nadal. The low bounce acutally suits Federer rather then Nadal.

Not sure if serious. Besides those couple passing shots by Nadal its been one if the lower quality "Fedal" matches I've seen so far. Lots of simple errors from both players.

Yep, amateur stuff. Why is there fireworks on? Because it's Australia Day?
Would think for a major sporting event they wouldn't allow this shit to happen.

Yeah, I flicked on the ESPN2 stream out of curiousity to see what they are saying.
I say it every year, it ridiculous that this happens, screw Australia Day celebrations, leave that to Sydney, this is a grand slam tournament.
Great match so far, Federer didn't do a whole lot wrong when he got broken. he played so well in that first set, if he keep being aggressive like he has been then that would be the way to win even though it's cost him a few errors in this set.
gimp!

that makes more sense, haha. agree on both.
Federer needs to leave that drop shot in the locker room.
Can't understand why he's stopped serving and volleying.

God, how depressing is that talk tennis forum. Every second post is "fed is done", "he can't win now". Just stfu.
Reminds me of some soccer nuffies hoping Messi is injured so that Barcelona stop winning.....FFS enjoy masters at work while we have them.
TT is full of teenage fanboys. Good luck getting a rational discussion about any of the top three.
Would be nice if Federer came to the net more. As long as he does it judiciously, he'll win a lot more points than he loses. Force Nadal to come up with the stellar pass to beat him.
