Ahhh come on rafa. 5th set... novak must surely be fatigued.

[Benzene]

Rafa is a fighter though.

[MrCookiepants]

Djokovic changes his shirt for the third time.

[Celestial]

Novak switched to his black shirt.

I feel sorry for the people here who are staying up to watch it and have to get up for work and school early in like 5 or 6 hours.

Right here

I still can't at Rafa falling to his knees with Novak's UEs at the end of the tiebreak, as if he'd just won the Golden Slam.

[Celestial]

Novak looks too thin. He needs more muscle.

[Killer Queen]

this match is close to being the longest match in Australian Open history

[CROATIA]

Come on Rafa!

[Benzene]

Nadal is holding so easily now.

Novak's defense is usually amazing but it's unraveling. Come on, don't let the crowd get to you.

I thought it was perfectly normal. It was almost not human to come out from this kind of situation.

Plus he needed to pump himself up more to keep fighting.

He's wilting. Two long matches in a row are taking its toll on him. He should have won the tie break.

Yeah I get it, he fought all the way back. It was still amusing though.

Novak has to be physically exhausted. it's showing.

4 hour match with Murray on Friday and now a 5 hour match with Nadal.

He's really running on empty. I agree, he missed a lot of chances in the 4th.

But if he keep holding he's still in it.

[Sammi]

Ugh this can't be happening.

[Celestial]

Nole.

[Benzene]

Novak is broken.

I don't see how Rafa loses now.

[Killer Queen]

Djokovic. Djokovic. Djokovic. the match was his in the last set.

I can see it's all Nadal from here.
