Rafael Nadal lost to Novak Djokovic by 6-1 and 6-4. Victory for a superior Serbian, although the match left an indelible moment of magic that the Spaniard unleashed at the heart of Roland Garros.
The punishment is heavy. Djokovic went up 6-1, 4-0. A Nadal was hugely supported by the public from start to finish, acting like a local because of the passion and love sent by the stands.
In the madness of the reaction of the Balearic Islands, the boost for the legend. An indelible mark of the legacy he will leave behind Rafael Nadal. Resilience, not giving up. It was made 4-4, sealing a reaction that ended up being sterile. But it says a lot about him.
Djokovic corners Nadal. With an inverted parallel right hand he almost overpowered him. Back ‘in extremis’ from the Balearic Islands with a short backhand. Djokovic, already in the doubles draw, punished with his backhand. Rafa arrives, throws the ball in the air.
Smash by ‘Nole’. Where was Rafa, who rose to touch the ball with the intention of knocking it down, at Djokovic’s feet. He held the ball again, but Rafa’s pass fell to him.
The center stood, the world of tennis was changed by another invented game Rafael Nadal. A unique record. And the images spreading like wildfire through the Olympic Games. Yes, he lost, but he gave another indelible moment.
