Not the prettiest match but Nalbs found a way to grind out the win against a player who is a difficult match up for him. That is a sign that he is focused when he needs to be and has the belief in himself.

Well done

 

[adee-gee]

Jeez that was draining just to watch

Good effort from both guys

I thought it was a very good match, at least it was entertaining :lol:

Well done Nalbo, now get to the final :rocker2: :lol:

18 aces and 0 double faults for Nalbandian
Another sign of his improved serve :rocker2:

A draining match indeed. Great attempt by Pics... but in the end the far better player won. Nalby's on fire!

 

[hope11]

Nice exchange at the end of the match at the net!

 

[Metis]

His backhand was not working that well today but the serve was; 18 aces

Win it all Nalby!

Good effort from Pics but he ran put of gas in the end .

Nice hug at the net :inlove:.

 

[Tabledott]

Wow, this Nalby is good...

 

[Julio1974]

As difficult as I expected. But what it matters is that he won !!!!

 

[TheBoiledEgg]

[Caio_Brasil]

David "Karlovic " Nalbandian 18 aces and 0 dfs , the best i have ever seen serve together the match against Djokovic in Madrid, even he served better tonight , but the court is pretty low, made for Rafita

the match would have been great for a clay match but for an indoor match it was not that good

 

[Apemant]

Wow, so much running... my head is spinning. Ferrer fought like a devil until Nalby finally broke his spirit late into the 3rd set. A couple of months ago Nalbandian would've lost this match - at times the only thing that kept him in the match was the serve, as Ferrer was outgrinding him in most rallies. That guy really can run until the doomsday; really incredible.

 

[Bad Religion]

Damn

Pics was so close of being the new number 5 in the world

the match had very great and long rallies but too many for an indoor hard match , for clay great.

 

[no name face]

Nalby really showing he belongs in the top 5. Good win against a good opponent. I would have been really frustrated had he lost today.

(Now I have to pretend I'm busy at work instead of following livescores... )

 

[Viken01]

VAMOS DAVID !!! I hope you won't be tired tomorrow !!! VAMOSSSSSss !!!

true but Pics has improved his serve pretty much too, a little time ago he could barely hit an ace

18 aces and 0 double faults for Nalbandian

shocking! :lol:


Whatever it is that he's doing, it's definitely working. Just keep up the good work.

 

[Caio_Brasil]

Wow, this Nalby is good...
