Federer & Nadal's RIDICULOUS rally! 😱 

True and the last Rafa and Federer GS final

@@martydav9475 can't rule out possibilities of a Fedal Final atleast for the next 2 years

I can still hear the grunt-moans

I literally thought the same

Love how they have the same outifit

I thought it was at the inside out forehand

It was the forehand. You can clearly see Fed hit three forehands to the get Rafa further and further off the court and then he pulls the trigger with the FH down the line.

@@luisalejandro2335 it was the backhand before that shakes nadal stability..

Ur all wrong lmao

Rafa hit cross court and gave Fed a huge angle to work with. Not sure why he’d think that was a good tactical shot but he’s elite and I’m not so I guess he had a reason.

these 2 need to team up and play doubles for a few years before they finally leave the game. fans would love it and people would get hooked on doubles play because the ratings would demand they show the matches.

I am not sad but know you feel. I liked Pete Sampras and roger Federer was in the same boat. Live up to his idol. Retire when the new stars were ready to take his spot. I rather like that compare to declining with age.

I'm sure by this point he knew who and what he was playing against 😂

@@roger22fed Appunto

He's thinking that if he's playing a machine.... he can still hack it

Nadal the fantastic

@@roger22fed we are looking at two of the greatest doing things that mere mortals have trouble comprehending. And yes, you’re right. Roger knew he was playing a man his equal or better depending on the shot, the hour the tournament. Shalom

Just say the name " Djokovic "🔥 directly without going around the bush.

@@Sajith-pl salty

Rafa survives

They coincided with the rise of social media and money skyrocketing in sport, without that tennis wouldn't have changed as much

@@Sajith-pl facts my brotha

Me im crying 😭😭😭😭 for their crying 😭😭😭.

I am😢😢😢

Roger is the GOAT in my mind. It’s not only about the numbers he put up but the class and grace with which he did. His game was pure poetry whilst also being brutal. At times he made some of the all time great players look ordinary

I remember when Federer was young & rude. Back when David Pablo Nalbandian use to kick Federer butt all over the tennis court. Federer would curse at the referee. You must be young. But Fed cleaned up his act & then became a gentleman and The Goat.

@@ZATennisFanhe played with grace and class but his attitude and behaviour often was fairly contrary. Nowhere near as gracious or classy as either Rafa or Novak in defeat, let’s not kid ourselves

Rafa suffered for two years before this comeback at AO17 .2015,2016 he didn't play due to his wrist injury tell complete information don't hide it

They were BOTH coming from injury. Its impressive for both. Dont be one sided. And im a RF fan too

It was a 35 year old Federer and he had 5 setters in the 4th round and semis. Quarters he beat Mischa Zverev in straights.

Actually Nadal win in 22 over mdev was more impressive

Damn right

Wonder how many more majors he'd have if he'd switched to the bigger racket a couple of years earlier

@sln 78 Tiene un backhand tan preciso como si fuera su fronthand. Yo diría que lo que gusta de estos dos jugadores, es que son muy respetuosos, educados dentro y fuera de la pista, además que dentro son dos estilos distintos, que se complementan, para que cada partido que jueguen sea todo un espectáculo. FEDERER : Elegancia, técnica extrema (venga como le venga la bola, la puede devolver de una forma precisa, sin tenerse que colocar para darle con su mejor golpe, porque como tiene un excelente control con todo el abanico de golpes, no necesita moverse tanto dentro de la pista para elegir darle con un golpe determinado). Es del tipo de jugadores que no solo es capaz de devolver una bola difícil, sino que además la dejará tan colocada, que el rival pensando que no va poderla devolver, se fustrará, porque de ver que el punto lo ganaba, lo pierde. NADAL : Gran fortaleza mental, capaz de dar la vuelta a lo que cualquiera pensaría que lo tiene más que perdido, él es capaz de estar pensando que cada punto es un partido completo, de ahí que cada punto por mucha ventaja que lleve el contrincante lo va a luchar hasta el final, provocando la desesperación y pasando la tensión y el nerviosismo que debería tener el mismo, al rival.

I still believe that one of the major flaws of Federer was his backhand inconsistency. If he gets it right, he is unbeatable.

not only that but the 3 half volley in row

I don’t think this was a great match. A good one nevertheless. Two old men coming back from varying degrees of injuries and playing well within their limitations. Not that special a match.

@@gangster125 Don't cry about it, Novak. People just don't like you.

I´ll never forget that whole match!!

​@@marvinzuber1995I'll never forget that year 2017...

The live commentator!

Best. Rally. Ever. Still get goosebumps watching it!

Me too ... Never

Lol .. same here ... this iconic rally will never get old.

Cuz he doesn’t use his muscle he uses his whip on his swings… takes so much less energy but so much more skill… that’s why his shots look so effortless..

@@genesisnkaidence8519I think he just doesn’t want to sound like an idiot when he plays lmao

@@jaradsage8546 no he definitely grunts when he’s exhausted

@@jaradsage8546I’ve heard roger grunt before, he did it a lot at the French open 2019 against Wawrinka, I actually like it

​@@jaradsage8546yes he does it but not just for the sake of it or this much as nadal and other players. Plus federer relies more on his technique and skills vs rafa uses his strength

No

The entire match is also great.

It’s called a half volley and it takes the arguably the most amount of skill out of any shot in tennis.

That's why in some people's opinions Roger will remain the GOAT, I've read a comment that was spot on " he is the only one able to produce shots that are IMPOSSIBLE in tennis" - Ion Țiriac

@@ATELIERDUCORDAGE Roger is my personal favorite and difficult reproduce... perhaps a perfectionist. But have to say Nadal acheived more and is a true gladiator of this sport.

@@saadrathore4408 he is my favourite to and for me he will always be the GOAT. As for Rafa and Nole I have to say only this, if you do not like them, you do not like tennis...is simple as that 😉

It was actually a slap!

I too !!!

We all do😢

The two greatest of all time
