We have a dream semifinal in Melbourne with Novak Djokovic facing Roger Federer. Even if the Serbinator didn’t play at his very best against Nishikori, that was enough to win 6-3 6-2 6-4 (ok… that match wasn’t the finest).
The big thing is that now Nole will face Federer in what is going to be a great semis and a repetition of 2 grand slam finals in 2015.
Djokovic. I hope I can deliver
Nole commented “Roger is playing really terrific tennis in the past two years. We played two Grand Slam finals last year. I know very well how good he plays, especially in the later stages of a major event.
He always makes you play your best. My best is what is going to be necessary to win against him. Hopefully I’ll be able to deliver.”
Head to head
Roger and Nole have played each other 44 times, head to head is 22-all (!!!).
