One of the most memorable matches of Roland-Garros' history
Oh well..
Memorable of tennis history
See final Courrier Bruguera my fellows
@@RAUL7487 completamente de acuerdo!
@Aramis Aramis haha he lost buddy.and even a bagel
Their court coverage is insane! So many shots that would've been winners against literally any other player on the tour but their defense skills are just out of this world
those guys have redefined meaning of winners and unforced errors...I swear I lost count of how many times they tricked me to think they surely hit a winner (just to see other guy not merely return nearly impossible shot but to turn it into counterstrike like it was nothing)
Also because it's on clay which is my favourite surface cause you get long interesting rallies.
ATP TOUR ACADEMY it also seems like the fastest surface for the players so they can reach the ball or maybe that’s just me
Novak,Roger and Rafa,any day anyone can win..they are simply just out of world!!!!!!!!
@@therockdwarfmockdwarf1476 It's fast for the players movements for sure, but not for the ball. Ball trajectories are faster on hard court
It took a pandemic for RG to upload a highlights longer than 4 mins. Anyways thanks for this GOLD 🤩
haha
Bcoz of covid19 i spent time watching the past RG match
they will also be uploading the full match this week.
Hahahaha you're right this how it works in France in every discipline the highlights will not last more than 2min look at the highlights of the Champions league in RMC
Have you another joke?
Commentator calling “Its in” in 29:25 before it landed its priceless. Few people can see that ball going in... best single shot of the entire match
Good One.
Best single shot? As the other commentator also said after the point it was a total miss-hit from Nadal. It was the luckiest shot of the entire match ..
"It's in"
"Total miss-hit, and it goes in the court, unbelievable"
Commentators get the feed slightly ahead of the televised audience, this is why. He didn't predict anything.
Yeah
Complete mishit, the forehand literally next point is the best shot of the match, unreal counterpunch
The best Roland Garros match of all time in my opinion.
For sure
Federer Djoko 2011 was good too ;)
Erwan Lrfve Gamewise i think Nole-Roger was better in terms of quality, but this one is so physical. Running everywhere, insane
zakaria djouzi Thats your opinion and thats fine. I also believe this match is the best RG match of all time, but imo, this match is more like two gladiators. Physical, sweat, drama, run, etc. While Fed/Nole 2011 was more of precise hitting and power strokes. So imo, Nole/Fed 2011 was better in terms of hitting quality, where Rafa/Nole 2013 was more of a physical, endurance match
This match was superior to Federer vs Djokovic not only because It's a 5 setters, but also because of the shot making. Rafa hits many special forehands that you can include in any top Shot list. The level in the 5th set was absolutely unreal with 20+ winners from Rafa . For me top 3 clay matches of all time:
3) Nadal vs Coria Rome 2005
2) Nadal vs Federer Rome 2006
1) This one
This match was so important for nadal's legacy and for his rivalry against djockovic, nole had end nadal's win streak at monte carlo so imagine if he beat him at RG too in the same year 'that wouldve been terrible for rafa
I agree.if lost,it would be added to similar style loss of 2012 aus open final .it would be really painful.

When Djokovic starts smiling during an intense match you can almost be certain that he is going to increse his level and possibly redline for the next 15 minutes. Its insane mental powers
What happened here lmao?
@@danyalkazmi1400 You dont get a point idiot
I disagree; when he smiles, he is nervous and usually don't perform well. When he looks upset, he is actually not nervous. I is weird, but his mental game is superb
@@theyoutuber273 yeah right. I feel like in that moment he realises :
"hey, i am too tense and its not going way. Let the anger go, inhale exhale and just play the ball "
Sometimes when he s angry he can play super well, but he can also beat himself
@@theyoutuber273 i agree...he looks so sheepish when he smiles like that - especially with Rafa opposite him. Overall big pain - whatever titles he gets.... whatever his mental game is... look at him hitting the ball even before it lands on his side of the net and arguing with the umpire... he is even calling him by first name...is that a sportsmanly behavior...? Rafa in similar situations just accepts that he was at fault... so never mind wins/losses... you got to have a balanced sporting nature if you are a high caliber champion.
Who is here after nadal's 13 Roland garros beating Djokovic
He's just so much fun to watch. And this 2020 RG was the year that Djokovic predicted that Rafa is beatable on clay.
@@trudib972 Djokovic say now "unbeatable"
@Lime Soda paris are the more important
Nalad is claybully 👍🙏☺️
Nadal didnt beat nole ! He dismentaled him
28:45 The ICONIC moment everyone remembers from this amazing match, including Rafa's finger-pointing!
At AO 2012 Nadal missed an open backhand down-the-line in the 5th set and here Novak touched the net, sometimes 1 point can decide the outcome of a close match.
28:47 Nadal is the kind of kid who report you to the teacher. Cry baby
@@raoulhery idk seems to me that there’s a difference between calling a kid out in school and trying to win a grand slam.
@@raoulhery Touching the net is an auto point loss.
And plus Novak fell on the net, so it would have made no difference if the finger pointing did not happen.
@@raoulhery cretin, the only reason Djok put that away so easily is because he was so close to the net, and he paid the penalty
@@raoulhery you’re the kind of kid who reminds the teacher to pass out homework when she’s forgotten too you’re job in most situations is literally to just suck the life and joy out of everything
Nadal has been a participant in arguably the best matches on all three surfaces. Him and Roger at Wimbledon in 08, him and Novak at the Australian Open in 2012 and then this one on clay
the man has played in virtually every one of the top 10 matches of the last two decades.
literal insanity the heart to keep pushing, he has.
To me the best one was after 2008 Wimbledon is 2022 Aus final , it wasn't a tennis match, it was one of the most emotional journey i ever had in this sport.
@@Katana-op7nf remember calling in sick to work just as Nadal took the third set. Best decision I’ve ever made
nah. their 2012 RG match was better, and imo their 2011 USO match is better than 2012 AO too.
Djokovic x Federer Wimbledon 2019
8 years later, they're playing the Semifinal of RG'21. Just amazing!!
7 years later they played in the Final of RG '20 and 9 years later they just played in the Quarterfinal of RG '22. Amazing is an understatement. I just hope they will meet again this year and in RG '23. As of 2022, they are the first pair of players that have met each other 10 times at a single GS, which is of course, Roland Garros.
@@andreim.5324Pretty weird to include 7 years when the original comment already said 8. Sounds like a Fedfan who doesn’t like Djokovic.

Get a life
best RG match of all time
Not at all
@@yenamarre424 i think that is the best RG in history, i can't think of any other better match, or even close(that is because Rafas dominance there was so incredible) maybe matches like Roger vs Djokovic in or Nadal vs Isner both in 2011 but they are below this epic Djodal match.
@@javierjesusbalades2155 The tennis' level in this match was fairly fickle (6-1 in the third set) whereas in 2011 the matches between Nadal & Federer and Nadal & Djokovic was for me on a highest level
@@yenamarre424 well, AO 2012 3rd set was won by Novak 6-2 and it is still one of the best matches ever if not the best one........u just have to see the overall level of tennis in these match, it is from another planet like in AO 2012 final or WBM 2008 final.
@@javierjesusbalades2155 WBD 2008 final was just the graetest match ever played, but here, the tennis level in the 2 last set was insane but it was not good enough to be declared the graetest Frech Open match
The way Nadal turned that 5th set around was unreal. After going down that converted break, he completely changed his style of play. He knew he we was getting out-rallied, so on serve he just started absolutely spanking the ball at the first opportunity, blasting ridiculous winners, not even giving Djokovic a chance. He was so determined not to go down a double break, because he knew if he kept it close and hung around, his chance would come. Awe-inspiring stuff
you could at least mention that none of it would've helped him hadn't Novak touched that net.... :)
@@drra2308 Well, even if Novak had won that point, it would've only given him ad. Also, I think Nadal played a big part in causing that error
Djok changed his play.
Rafa never won against Djokovic in AO
@@biscuit2702 Only lol

This match was a turning point for both of them. Djokovic had the upper hand at this moment (he ended Nadal's streak a month earlier in Monte-Carlo). I'm pretty confident that if he hadn't lost this match, he would have never lost the WB and USO finals that year.
Instead 2013-2014 were the toughest years to be a Djoko fan. He was always beating Nadal in "smaller" tournaments, but always loosing to him at Grand Slams
Absolutely and great analysis. Although this match will forever be painful to Djokovic fans, Wimbledon 2018 semis was a sense of redemption for Djokovic and equally as painful for Nadal fans. Both of those semis were the real finals. This match was similar to the Fedal Rome 2006 and the Nole/Nadal Miami 2011. All were rivalry changing matches. As someone once said:
AO 2012 Final= A New Hope
FO 2013 Semis= The Empire Strikes Back
WIMBLEDON 2018 Semis= Return of the Jedi
@@jacobschmidt2709 Indeed the WB match was a sense of redemption. But there still feels something incomplete. I want Novak to beat Rafa at FO finals. (Imo the 2015 win over Rafa didn't feel satisfying as he was losing to anyone that year)
@@thexcookieman1842 You are getting too greedy there mate. If you say that, then I can say I want Nadal to beat Djokovic at the AO final, which is quite impossible at this stage of their career ,even though he almost did in 2012.
No player has ever come close to beating Nadal in the FO finals, they didnt even get him to the fifth set. Novak tried 3 times, Federer tried 4. Wimbledon 2018 is enough, although I say Nadal should have won that match, that really hurts to rewatch
@@adifferentkindofanidiot2215 the closest player to beat Rafa in an FO final was federer in 2011. And yet the match wasn't that close.
@@adifferentkindofanidiot2215 14-0 in FO finals is absolutely insane. But it's also insane that Rafa is 7-0 in FO finals, never having been taken to a 5th set, against the other 2 GOATs.
This match was absolutely insane. It was literally a mirror image of their classic in AO 2012 where Novak dominated the stats until Set 4, but Rafa found a way to win set 4 and almost pull off a win. This match was dominated by Rafa until Novak found a way in set 4 and almost won. They each missed two easy shots that turned the match around. Another incredible stat. Each won their second slam at the AO (Nadal) and FO (Novak) after being two sets down.
we knew what was coming. Djokovic defeated him at Monte carlo earlier that year which boost his confidence. But Nadal was waiting for him in the shadow for the end game. He did stretch him to his limits, we can give him that. Absolute masterpiece of a match.
This was equivalent to a team taking Michael Jordan's Bulls to a.game7 of the NBA FINALS! The opponent would still lose but taken the Bulls to da brink is no small feat which was what Novak did here.
@@leonardobraynen1524 not really, jordan record before scottie pipen was bad, nadal record on rg was always good
It is like when Real beat Atletico in the UCL final back in 2014 , it was 1-1 full time but Real scored 3 in the extra time , you can say that Atletico almost won but at the end they failed , good reference for Rafa as he is a Real fan
If Djok remained focused, he would impact thw Nadal focus.
But Djok at the wnd did not maintain his focus.
His game was there, to beat Nadal. It is easy ti see.
Djok 2013-2015 was great on all surfaces.
@@innosanto m.th-cam.com/video/kat7HyhoiR0/w-d-xo.html (Minute 9:39) He was robbed of that point in this match too, but that's not convenient to remember for any rafa fan out there.
although it hurts me so much to re-watch this match, but a match with quality like this deserves a long highlights like this. The greatest rivalry of all time
You don't have to feel too bad now. Djokovic returned the favor this year. At long last, the King was defeated in his haven. This is certainly one of the best days in tennis.
@@jacobschmidt2709 Best day for Djokovic fans, that's for sure

@@scottwarren4998 They clearly are a step slower in 2021. Depends what you mean by 'better', more thrilling? sure. But it can not match the intensity of this match
@@NamTran-xc2ip How about Roland Garros 2014/2015, weren't those very good matches? They must have run fast in RG 2014/2015 according to your logic.
This is one of the greatest match of all time in Roland Garros. I'm sure Djokovic fans would agree too with others. Nadal deserved to win a title however Djokovic was so close in 2013... Nadal is the still King of Clay. Incredible ❤️
People who say Nadal got lucky with net cord in 5th set, Djokovic still had a chance to win that game at deuce. So Nadal was the better player.
By that logic, Djokovic got lucky in 2012 AO final in 5th set when Nadal missed an easy backhand dtl
Yes, you are absolutely right. The game was back in deuce and in fact Djokovic had an advantage after the net touch point and still lost the game.
Very strange.Both matches are extremely resembling each other.
As AO 2012 final, the best player won (Djoko in AO and Nadal in RG) but the opponent was so close
@Dew Man
Nadal was also 2 points from winning this match in the 4th set. And being 2 points away from winning a match isn't exactly like having match point. But it is still close.
Lol wtf you talck when Djokovic tuch net Nadal win neht point and it was 4-4. Lol wtf you watch
This channel is killing it lately with these weekly "RG Classics" extended highlights. Wawrinka/Tsitsipas 2019, Tsonga/Nishikori 2015, and now Nadal/Djokovic 2013. All great. Can't wait to see what match is chosen for next week.

Best clay court match of all time, top3 match overall
Who's here after Djokovic beat Rafa in the 2021 semis?
Expected a repeat of this match. Unfortunately......
Djokovic GOAT
It was definitely not the best all-time match, but it was still a great match and one of the most significant. Nadal was going into that match with a 105-2 record and had only lost once when he was in good form up to that point(2009 to Soderling). In 2015, Nadal was a shadow of himself, so I don't put much weight on that loss. Most people, myself included, saw Nadal getting #21 a foregone conclusion; especially after what we saw in RG 20 final. To add to that, Djokovic was 1-7 vs Nadal at the French and the head to head was about even. Coming back vs the King of Clay in his house after starting the match down 0-5 was a very great effort. The third set was one of the best sets, featuring multiple breaks, both fighting off break points and set points, capped by a tiebreaker. This match, along with Wimby 19, may be looked at for a long time as being the deciding factors as to who will end the best of the open era; especially when you consider that the French is the only slam which Nadal has the advantage in vs Novak at the moment. Seeing the king of clay crumble in that final set was one of the greatest things to happen in tennis. It finally gave the Spaniard an understanding as to how Federer felt when he lost in his haven in that 2008 Wimbledon final.
@@jacobschmidt2709 why is him 'crumbling' at the FO 'one of the greatest things to ever happen in tennis'. Unnecessary hyperbole. 🙄
Btw even his coach said that he picked up a foot injury in the match. Nadal never lets a set go at the FO like that. Fourth set was ample evidence of that. He'll come back.
Lol Frauderer lost in his prime at almost 27 to a very young Nadal. Comparing that to a 35 y.o who has come off injuries 🤣. Btw, how's the bagel tasting? 😜
@@Joel57able lol excuses and excuses. Djokovic had a shoulder injury in the lead upto to RG 2020 but didnt put up any excuses giving sll credit to rafa. Basically keep crying nadal ain't jack shit

2013 French Open semifinal.
Björn Borg dubbed it the greatest clay court match ever.John McEnroe called it one of the top 5 matches of all time.Both players produced incredible tennis in what was a mirror image of the 2012 Australian Open final. The match had momentum swings throughout the entire affair but the most important occurred late in the fifth set when Djokovic, up a break, touched the net on a winner that would have put him in position to serve for the match, losing the point. He never recovered mentally from this mistake and Nadal saved the break and immediately broke back, eventually winning the final set.

Madre mía, es alucinante, la fé de este hombre en pista es un ejemplo a seguir.
that unlucky touch of the net by Novak at 40-30 rattled him. You give nadal any opening on clay and he will take it. great match by both guys
So the tennis world has been obsessed with djokovic beating nadal in close matches but has ignored how nadal is the best on the toughest surface.
And I don't think most people notice Nadal's playing with a slight limp on his bandaged leg ... to last a 5-set match and win it with such a handicap against Novak is just mind boggling ...
Maybe the toughest is hard cuz u got less time to react
"The toughest surface". It's more grindy and physical, not "tougher". One could just as well say hard courts are tougher because they're less forgiving of errors in shot selection or strategical ball placement. In the end, there's no 'tougher' surface, they each present their own set of difficulties and advantages, only someone's who's overly eager to gain argument points for his favorite player would try to claim a surface as "tougher" when it's obviously completely dumb.
@@robinsoncruise2228 Truth. The reaction time is less. You don't have ages to think and pummel your shots like clay
It is the least tennistic surface. More about athleticism and less about twnnis stroke excellence with exception of spin impact.

Two legends, what a performance by both of these... 👍
29:25 is an amazing shot, superb top and left spin
If Djokovic hadn't ended up winning Roland Garros that moment at 27:49 probably would have been the most regrettable mistake of his entire career (still might be regardless tbh).
Yes, but if u think about it that way, Nadal and Federer have those kind of points too... Fed needs no explanation, the Wimbledon 2019 sums it all, but Rafa had a nice chance in 5th at Aus open 2012....

I am pretty sure there was a point early in third set where umpire called a clear out ball in and the made Djokovic upset for a while, hence the result of third set 6-1. Should have put that at highlights.
Also I remember Djokovic actually saved the BP after falling to the net, but he got broken at next or second break point after that incident. Highlights give the impression like he was broken immediately. I am not sure about this though as I always thought Djokovic had game point at that point but I see it was actually deuce now.
yes you are right i still remember all this details ,, i feel like you are not happy because Rafa won this game hhh ??
Regarding the game with the net mistake, they actually did explain. At 28:50, they wrote "trois points plus tard, Nadal revient à 4-4" which basically means "3 points later, Nadal comes back at 4-4"
Just keep in mind this is technically a french channel:p
I was delighted at Rafa's win.! Rafa fan since 2005.
and we still delight of that wiin 😁🥂
Yeah, Djokovic saved that BP with a winner but the missed smash was still crucial because he probably would’ve held had he made it
Fantastic, one the best clay court matches of all time! Please do Roger v Nole SF 2011
2013 puff, a ver si los podemos volver a ver enfrentados en Roland Garros en el 2024, once años despues.
The best clay court match I have ever seen.
Who is here to watch just before the Finals of RG 2020?
8 hours away, go joker!
Stephen Amitrano I feel it wasnt Djoko who played today. Unforced error is not in the resume of Djoker.
Yup he got tittied. Lol
Probably he forgot to take his medicine 💊. I just cant believe how boring is the match today..
How can we not remember this match ! best match on clay
Awesome match by two of the greatest ever-bravo!
Rafa waiting by the net and letting Novak cross over to his seat like a gentleman is pure gold. ♥️
Its part of his ritual
now dont ever tell this again to a tennis fan ... they would die laughing ...
I remember it was in this same year that Rafa also defeated Djokovic at the US Open final
yes and also the semis of the canada open!
And Djokovic beat him in London WTF, Beijing, Monte Carlo
@@Aman-nk5uq Add to that Wimbledon 2018 semis, 2019 AO and 2021 FO semis.
Merci d'avoir mise en ligne cette vidéo le meilleur match de rg pour moi nadal quelles champions 12 Rolland garros 😱😱😱😱😱😉😉😉
The DE FACTO final of 2013 ROLAND GARROS 🤟❤️
The Djokovic Forehand is so underrated
Yep textbook torque action
Same about Nadal's backhand
Rafa, I am missing you a lot. I'm 1000% sure you will win Rolland Garros this year in September, if it happens.
And Thiem will be the finalist..
I hope Thiem will win poor him he already made two finals at RG
of course Nadal will be always the favorite to win it
Rafa, will win.
Born to win on the red dirt clay
I have a feeling we're looking at Thiem finally upsetting Rafa at RG this year, if it's happening.
This match was Rafa's revenge for AO 2012 finals but regardless, both are among my favorite and also among the best matches of all time
Dos grandes atletas, y mejores personas. Nunca olvidaré estos maravillosos momentos; se lo llevó Nadal merecidamente, pero Djokovic fué un gran rival y pudo alcanzar la gloria con igual merecimiento: Lo dicho, ambos dos ganaron la copa... Me salen lágrimas de alegria al ver de nuevo esta competición. Independientemente del resultado final concluyo que la voluntad humana no conoce límite, alguno, insuperable. Chapó.
Por cierto, una cosa a tener en cuenta acerca de la calidad humana de estos deportistas de élite, observen como Nadal recoje las toallas de los jóvenes muchachos asistentes, no hace el feo, ignora, a ninguno; podría parecer un detalle menor...
probably the best 3 matches ever
1)2008 wimby final
2)2012 aus final
3)2013 french semis
they all have rafa and referee pascal
and I don't believe in coincidences
2019 Wimbledon final that's great too.
congrats roger
Alr
Excellent match 💖👏by both the Legends
THIS is the most satisfying match I’ve ever watched as a Nadal fan. US Open Final 2013 was second. Australian Open Final 2009 was third.
same but for me AO semifinal with verdasco!!!
33:28 Look people, that's how good prime Nadal was. He did that regularly against Djokovic, but now he doesn’t do it anymore. That is why it is too easy to say that Djokovic is the best when Nadal is no more at the top of his art.
2010-2013, years I think we can all agree were prime levels of both players, Djokovic leads h2h 10-8. 6-4 Djokovic on hard, 4-3 Nadal on clay, 1-0 Djokovic on grass. Numbers say prime Djokovic>prime Nadal.
David Leahy Yes in masters 1000 that’s the case but not in GS. In GS Nadal was in beast mode and he was a bit superior. 2010-2013, it’s 2-2 on hardcourt, Djokovic leads 1-0 on grass and Nadal leads 3-0 on clay. In GS Nadal leads 4-3, so numbers says in GS both prime Nadal>Djokovic.

@@fallenfetus Djoko's prime is definitely 2016 lol
Whether Nadal wins a match or loses a match, his opponent had better not let their guard down,. Nadal will fight to the VERY end of the VERY last point. I did not watch this match, until these highlights, and now we all can see why Nadal has won 20 Grand Slam titles. Nadal Is My Champion!
This is the best match Novak has ever played that he lost. One might even say this was his best clay court match ever. The best clay court match ever played for sure.
Superhuman effort❤
29:20 The best point i've ever seen
someone here before tomorows final? :D
Yes
Me too. Just bet the joker at twin river in Lincoln RI. I can't sleep. Lol
@@stephenamitrano2284 ouch
Yup just threw douch in the toilet. Lol
Great game,almost identical to the AO final the year before hand in 2012 Nadal had the momentum in the 5th and Djokovic had the momentum in this 1 only to be reversed,to top it all off they played another epic in Wimbledon 2018 semi final which I thought quality wise might of been the best,
Waiting to watch all the RG finals full matches.
