Medvedev will fight again for the title in New York

Daniil Medvedev fully complied with the forecasts that placed him in the US Open final as second seed and one of the fittest tennis players on the circuit. The 25-year-old Russian beat Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-4, 7-5 and 6-2 in just over two hours and will play for the second time the game for the title in the American Grand Slam. A rival awaits and he will be the one to come out of the match that will face Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev from 1:00 (Eurosport). “I want to enjoy the other semi-final, the match and the rivals, without thinking about who is going to win,” Medvedev said in the post-match interview.

The 25-year-old Russian only went through a delicate moment in the second set, with a 5-2 against that seemed definitive. But he won five games in a row, he scored the partial and he no longer looked back at the 21-year-old Canadian, who could do nothing afterwards to stop the 2019 finalist in that match against Rafa Nadal that he lost and that he remembers as “crazy”. “I hope that if another similar one comes out on Sunday, this time I can win it ”, wished the Muscovite. “It was a strange match in the second set, it was not known where it was going to go. I have not played my best game, but I am happy to get into the final, “he analyzed.

The fact is that with what he did, which was not little (35 winning strokes, 25 unforced errors and 81% of points won with first serves)It was enough for him to overcome a 21-year-old rival who at no time believed in his possibilities, not even with that wide advantage he had in the second round. Quite the opposite of Medvedev, who exudes confidence and only thinks about his own tennis, regardless of the rival in front of him. He enters the title game with only one lost set and having given up 59 games, almost 10 per game, few. It is a machine, a battleship that seems impregnable.
