Nadal powers past Djokovic in epic to reach French Open semi-finals | 2022 Roland Garros | Eurosport 

The game will never be taken to this level again. These two guys are the last sun rays of excellence. Tennis perfection, history of sport.

It was so late here in Germany at half past 1…..I was sleep deprive but went to bed very happy! Looking forward on friday and sunday games…..Vamos Rafa!

19 shots in the last point of the match! incredible

Astonishing records this man is achieving at Roland Garros alone

Look at the audience reaction on every point. Children, adults and elderly, everyone is excited and happy to watch Nadal. What an athlete!

That'll quiet down those Nole fans who kept saying "wait until Rafa meets the real player Nole, who will smash him". Well Here he is, Rafa showed again why he is the genius and the legend, the way he climbed back up on 4th set proves that you never count Nadal out. Nadal will always be the favourite at Roland Garros. Let's go Rafa, 2 more matches and 22nd trophy is yours! Take it!

When Nadal plays not just his fans but the whole audience young or adult love every point he wins cuz they can all feel & see his passion & determination to win , just love all his matches the way his still going strong after so many injuries , our king will always rule ❤️

All the world loves this man. Rafael Nadal always will be etern.

So glad I stayed up to watch this. How fortunate we are to witness such greatness!

Listens to the fans at Phillips Chatrier , they totally support Nadal👍 and the fans around the world hope Nadal will win the semi and the final for 22 Slams. Vamos Nadal , go for it .

Absolute privilege to watch these legends.

Rafa’s forehand DTL was on fire like 2013,14 FO and that’s what put Djokovic in passive mode only if Rafa plays like this he can beat Djokovic on any surface…Hope Rafa plays for at least 2 more years but it seems unlikely.. The level #RogerRafaNole has played will never be reach by any player that level of tennis is only for these 3 players… #LEGENDS

When Rafa wins, the crowd wins. That is power...

This was war!! The rackets were guns and the balls were missiles. This was meant to be the final but was played as the quarter finals!!! What a brilliant match!!

Thank you rafa for many year of BEAUTIFUL tennis VAMOS RAFA 👏👏👏

Thanks so much for the highlights because i can't finish to see yesterday (too late in my country). Amazing Rafa. Great match.

The Goat & The Joker! Well done Rafa… & at 36 with bad health too what an inspiration… let’s enjoy u whilst your still here playing

An honor and a privilege, seeing two of the very greatest sportspersons in history, battle against each other.

El mejor en el tenis y una grandísima persona. Por eso es un ídolo a imitar!

Incredible precision, movility, estrategy, what a mach at 36 years old.

I don't understand why all these Novak-fans keep accusing Rafa for doping and that he is faking his injury. You could see that he was in a lot of pain when he played against Shapovalov in Rome, and then he said afterwards he's been dealing with a chronic left foot injury his entire life and that he's been playing with a lot of pain many times before. I as a Rafa-fan can respect Novak Djokovic as player and person and also many of his fans who can at least accept that he either didn't have his best day or that his opponent was the better player. Nadal is in my opinion the greatest fighter of all time and the true G.O.A.T because of the injuries he's been dealing with all these years, and soon at 36 still be capable of competing against the top players and fight for slams. Anyways, it was a great match, I barely had any sleep because it was around 2 am when this match had ended. Truly worth it. Hopefully we'll get to see more of these two against each other in the future. Now, go and get the #22 Rafa!

Rafa might lose often against Federer and Djokovic in smaller M1000 matches, but in Grand slams where it really matters, he almost beats 'em every time! That's why he is the GOAT next to his 22 Grand Slams! (Coming from Djoko fan)

Nadal, the GREATEST of the greats bar none.

He is the G.O.A.T.

Great match from both players but I wish Novak could show a little more humility and properly congratulate Rafa on his win - very cool handshake!!

What more can you say about Rafael Nadal on the clay on Phillipe Chatrier at Roland Garros

Felicitaciones Rafa! Excelente partido.

VAMOS RAFA!! THE G.O.A.T.

Great Nadal, the "Demi God" of the red dust. The stuff of myths and legends.

I hope he has a happy birthday on this friday!!!🍾🎉🎂 Eres el Rey de Roland Garros!!!

Best Tennis I've Ever Seen! I Literally Could Not Believe Some Of Those Shots. Respect Rafa!

Rafa - The Greatest on clay! He just schooled his opponent.

Nadal ALWAYS was the GOAT. The King of Clay, and the King of Tennis. Vamos Rafa!!!!!! 💪👑

Vamos Rafa!👍🇪🇦💪

that was masterclass from both players 👍👍👍

What are the French crowd doing booing Djokovic when he is walking on court. This is probably the last time we will see the GOATS play each other in a slam. Show both of them respect!

Leyenda Rafael

I'm so glad after this tournament Rafael Nadal won a 14th French open. He's to good Novak knew it

¡INCREÍBLE RAFA! 💗

Vamos💪🏻

Una última más, sólo una última más, viejo león.

EPIC. LEGENDARY. RAFAEL NADAL

why no hug at the end, mr djokovic?! 😀

Congratulations Nadal!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

This was the final match. Zvered and final match doesnt matter.

THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND!!!!!!!

I would have loved to see the 5th set ON had Novak capitalised on the 2 set points in 4th set. Tennis would never be the same without these 2 folks

Big big match. Legends

Great Game..👍

best clay player of all time.

Красавец... супер!!!

The fellow in yellow was playing like he knows every millimetre of Court Chatrier. It's almost as though he's been there a few times!

Se nadal gioca. Sciolto come. In allenamento lo ha detto. Anche nobak che. É ingiocabile nadal così

VAMOSSSS RAFAA! ❤️❤️❤️

This was a clash of two titans of tennis

Great match! I think the 5:3 in the 4th set was the crucial "now I've got you" game... Rather a cool handshake, isn't it?

I write after the phenomenal 2023 season of Djokovic and think Nadal and Federer were the only ones that stopped the ambition and success will of the Serbian. Now, Nole is a beast unrivaled, a monster unleashed.

Rafa espero consiga su 14 roland garrós e iguale a su querido Real Madrid con la 14a champions y en Francia.

Unpopular opinion: This was nadal in his absolute PRIME

bellissima. Partita tra fenomeni veri.non quei fenomeni. Che vincono 2 tornei e sembra già che siano fenomeni invece.sono solo. Ottimei giocatori e basta,nadal e nole hanno. Messo in piedi una partita. Fatta di tecnica e atletismo

Bravooooo!!! Rafa 🙌🙌🙌👑🏆💞

The best, simply

Nadal CAMPEON!!!

Vamos Chatin Vamos 2023 siempre nos quedará París Chatin Vamos.

Dumnezeule ce am putut sa vad ,doi titani al sportului alb o partida de zile mari un meci pe cinste de ambele parti fie Nadal fie Djokovic deci incredibil abia astept sa il vad in intregime pt ca rar mai vezi asa partide si pot spune ca a fost talent pur forta tehnica tot ce vrei este drept ca Nadal a dat clasa dar nici Djocovic nu a fost mai prejos ,sa tot urmaresti asa partide .Bravo baieti va felicit pe amandoi si cu scuzele de riguare il felicit pe NADA pt ca este preferatul meu dupa Roger.Federer acum ca sa retras.Bravo Nadal si bafta sa ei trofeul sper pt ca il meriti.

Grande, Nadal.

GOAT, that is for 12 months.

The spin at 7:26 😍

Nadal: Djokovic got me in the first half not gonna lie 😂

♥️♥️

El Madrid el rey del ⚽ y Rafa el rey del 🎾.

4:00 y 8:05 mismos remates, situación crítica, misma determinación para buscar el punto ganador

at setpoint Djoko 4th set, he made exactly the same mistake as did Federer on matchpoint Wimby against Djoko ... playing an easy approachshot

Moral of the story “From limping in Rome to a unseen 🧐fourteenth at home” 🏆 🏆 🏆 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 #22believe

This is truly something that will never be repeated/ 2 complete legends of the game but how nadal shifts a gear on clay is god of clay stuff! Ruud v nadal Sunday 🎾 ❤ carnt wait. 14 or 1

Estaría bien despedirse de Roland Garros con un último título.

Novisa Deportovic vs The GOAT

Imo a very good djokovic. After 2nd set i think rafa show the best tennis in woeld class first set but then he got problems with his injury and i expect now djoko got the game in hands. I fail... Nadal is incredible!

Casper will be the new champion of Roland Garros 2022.

Nole bringing his best but it is fuck all in comparison, unbelievable!

8:48 Swiatek ?

They are best of the Best including Federer. THE BIG THREE (FOREVER).

Viva el rey Nadal!!!

Rafa the goat has to win 22 slams

Chacho chacho, pero éste Nadal de dónde procede, de que raza, galaxia o de lo que sea ?

I think Nadal has 1-2 slams left. I think he could win U.S Open this year and another Roland Garros next year. I don’t think he should play Wimbledon. Rest and recover for U.S Open.

I think Djokovic has ‘long Covid’. 😉

Oda a la venganza 🇪🇦

Alcaraz lost and Nadal won. Just the opposite I was expecting to happen.

Dis two alwys getting better . Nadal offense better than 10yrs ago ....

Vamos rafaaa 🌺🙏🇬🇷🇪🇸

2 Sets in 2 hrs 16 min Jesus

Still the best tennis in the world.

Novak je mentalno pao, iznenađujuće. Australija je preokrenula sve. Nadam se da će smoći snage da se vrati još jednom.

Great game but the crowd has been disgusting.

I repeat - This was only a semifinal😂😂😂

08:00. Djokovic has his chance here. This one really bad shot could be decider for whole match

NOW...give him his 14th trophy! LMAO / 22 G.S. ...cmon this is ridiculous !

make a CALLL

ThisJoker thought he could go in and take the king's crown,just because he got lucky last year with a Nadal foot issue..
