Who watched that match last night? It was the best tennis match I've ever seen in my life! Incredible. Anyone else find it as good as I did?

Yep, it was an intense battle of the southpaws!! Seriously, I thought Verdasco would've won seeing all his winners and big serves.

Yeah I know, I wanted Nadal to win on his own terms by hitting a winner. Ah well...

well actually verdasco usually made errors on break points, major points and during the end of the 2nd,3rd,4th and 5th sets. I think it's the inexperience that led to his demise but i am certain he'll continue to become a dominate force in tennis from here on in, as long as he sticks to his guns, stays in great form and takes on great advice from some of the more experienced stars.

Best game ever, both Nadal and Verdasco put up a great fight.

How awesome was the dropshot by Verdasco.. that was mad!

Verdasco sure put Nadal to the test, congrats both!

Spainairds rock! Lefties are cool!

Verdasco had i think 81 winners or something, and also he had massive serves.

I think you could make a whole KIA-hotshot-reel out of just this game. I don't think the FINAL will be as great+fantastic as this game!


That game was best!! :) ;)  Go Rafa+Verdasco;buddy brothers

I think it was 95.

In all honesty, I reckon Verdasco would have won. He was controlling Nadal for quite a few sets but overall, very good tennis. The rallies were great with very little errors considering some of the shots made.

Not sure how Nadal is going to do on Sunday with Federer resting more than him.

I watched most of it as well! It was an incredible match, I felt as well that it was a shame that Verdasco double faulted the last match point, because it looked like he was going to stop Nadal from breaking his serve!

What an awesome, high quality semi final compared to Federer and Roddick's match!
