The DREAM Is Alive: Rafael Nadal & Carlos Alcaraz Safely Through 👏

Kolov's answer was wrong, it was his own goal, 1-0. For what he has done so far, yes. He didn't even close the straight goal, but it's enough to get the point. And then the game moved to the right, on Alcaraz's finger. Kolov didn't manage to do much. He's always very ready. What did he do? Madness from Nadal, a winning answer on a great first to the center. He managed to keep it in front at the last moment. With a quick post. Madness. Madness, this answer. Another wrong answer, 4-0. Nadal started from the opposite corner. So Friksborg got confused on the direction to give the answer. Nice first, very deep, 5-0. Nadal is very rich. Out. All wide. Out of the box. 5-1, he was forced. Yes, exactly. Because Nadal started from the opposite corner. But the angle was unassailable. Another mini-break. The Spaniards extend, 6-1. What a point, spectacular. Perfect. Alcaraz, low. The couple, Alcaraz and Nadal do much more things. They need another teammate to compete against the two Spaniards. Friksborg, apart from the service, has many flaws. Long. 7-1. Change, change. He wants to serve to the center. Alcaraz, every time he proposes the service to the outside, Nadal says no. To the center, to the center, 8-1. The service to the center, double, perfect. Also because he creates the right position, also because he is on the net. Every point is important. For service. He touched it. 9-1, there are 8 match points. Nadal certainly went to Alcaraz to play him on Griswold. He avoids playing Kukolov. Alcaraz, the first answer, had played it long. He lost the point for the net. 9-2. Ends on the net, Griswold's answer. Alcaraz and Nadal advance, win at the super tie-break. 10 points to 2. They are in the quarterfinals. It was a nice double. Many spectacular points. Nadal and Alcaraz certainly have many more weapons. They have played much more than Griswold. Kukolov played very well at a certain point. It was a nice double. Very funny. We saw Nadal's charge. Alcaraz supported the double. He played very well.
