Nalbandian was 5:2 in the first, but then managed to lose as 5:7.
However he at last found himself since then. Berdych is waiting.

Re: Nalbandian overcomes Clement 7:5 6:2 6:4

he was 40 then had 0 30 or 15 30 and some deuces to make it 50 then 51

and lost 75 the most impressive for him were his 14 aces including

one to close the match and just 4 dfs

Strange match.

David was very solid in the second and third sets, though. Good job after that hot mess he made of the first. 4-0 and loses it 5-7? Ouch.

Super point by Nalby at 4:3 30-40 clenched the third set for him.

 

[lorenz]

Come On Nalby !!!!
Good Luck !!

 

[canas]

Vamos Nalby

 

[Denaon]

Vamos nalbo...it was about time...

Nalbandian used to be one of my favorite players, sadly he's slowly but surely slipping down the rankings...never won a slam either...what a waste of such a great talent.

 

[krystlel]

Yeah, that running forehand passing shot to save that break point was crucial.

He steadied himself nicely in the second and third sets. I didn't expect that given how he blew that first set.

 

[mr_burns]

great

BTW is it true that clemet will retire after TNS Paris

 

[LeChuck]

David's collapse in the 1st set was disastrous, but full credit for him to recovering so well from that setback.

 

[justClaudia]

phew!

keep going David, pleeease.

 

[rrfnpump]

Arnaud
thought he had it after first set

 

[That tennis kid]

Good win for Nalbandian, but he is going to need a great week to minimise his Madrid points coming off from last year.

 

[lorenz]

It would be great if Nalbandian wins a TMS. It would be very stranga at this time of his carreer, but he deserves it.

Good Luck !!

 

[freeandlonely]

finally...
wish him the best
I still love to see him kick some ass

David :bigclap: But what a choke...from leading 5-1 to losing that set 7-5 Best of luck against Berdych
