One of the best tiebreaks I've seen and one of the better first sets I've seen, impressive from mannarino and the pass to go up 6-4 in the breaker from Rafa is one of the shots of the tournament. crazy to watch live

Rafa’s superior ability to hyper-focus and his instinct to kill was completely on display at the first set tiebreaker.. His determination to Never, ever give up is just too powerful 💪

[@movdqa]

He maintained intensity throughout which is tough to do against a player like Mannerino.

[@eduardovinicius9582]

No superas Shapovalov

[@buzzfunk]

Well Mannarino wasn't playing his best, IMO. Esp in the 3rd set. Lots of force errors and even Nadal looked a bit sloppy towards the end. I think Shapo will be a different animal so to be speak. We'll see.

That celebration at the end of the first set is so vintage Rafa it brings an unavoidable smile to your face. So nice to see him feeling the passion like that again. You can tell he's in it to win it big time this tournament.

[@andyroo9381]

Mannarino has nothing to be ashamed of; he put on a valiant effort. He has had a great AO tournament run. Unfortunately, he met up with Nadal in the fourth round. People are still doubting Nadal but he isn't listening to those people. Instead, he is feeling the fight and passion that is still there. That is the mark of a true champion. I don't know if he can win it but he has certainly reignited a flame inside of himself and of his fans. Nadal Is My Champion!

First set and tiebreaker: tennis from another galaxy

[@siddrajankicks]

AMAZING match from Mannarino. Loved to see such a run from him, especially with his crazy setup! Much love to Rafa. VAMOS to the finals!

I watched the game and, in my opinion, the first set was one of the most evenly-matched of history. It seemed that Nadal was playing against Roger or Novak. Amazing level from both players.

[@YashKMusic]

best tiebreak i've seen in a long time 🙏

[@squidgamer5264]

Rafa rolling back all those years. I remember seeing him in 2005. Congrats for the win, see you in the finals. Vamos Rafa!

[@luisfevel]

Rafa!! All the best in this tournament! I'm following your career since 2010 and named my second child: Rafael 'cause I admire your determination!!

[@nicogaleas7538]

Maybe I’m being overly optimistic, but I still think Nadal has another level of play he can reach in this tournament. I hope we’ll get to see that on display against Shapovalov, think it’ll be a good match whichever way it goes.

[@TinnieTa21]

Yeah, he's definitely not at 100%. Not saying he will reach it now, but I also think he has at least another level left.

[@jeffreykaufmann2867]

@@TinnieTa21 Nadal played Better Against Khachanov but at 35 years old he won't be able to raise his level with every match. The same thing happened to Federer after age 35.

[@marco_and_music]

I think Nadal doesn't need to be 100% to beat the others. The big three are in another level.

[@TinnieTa21]

@@jeffreykaufmann2867 I understand that, but I still feel like he has another level to go in him and that this isn't his peak. In other words, he'll probably get better after a few tournaments in. It's still really early in the tour.

[@DoubleOhTheG]

I think his level now is good enough to beat Shapovalov, Berrettini and Monfils. Assuming it will be Medvedev on the other side, that would be a different story

[@stephensun7909]

what a high level of tiebreak. Rafa looked helpless in first 3 points but after that the old Rafa was reborn. Adrian lost the break and his tennis soul. That's what we all love about Rafa, namely fighting spirit, never give up. Every time he lost a point, a game or a match, it was his body that failed him, not his spirit

[@bilalattal2707]

I think Rafa mindset can be summed up in his won words after the fourth set in Wim 2008 final when he told Uncle Toni that " Maybe Federer will win the title but I will not lose it" Goosebumps!!!!

[@mr.g2195]

Rafa's ability to control the match is beyond imagination of any player including Novak. His performance today demonstrated just that. well done Rafa.

[@JiraiyaSama86]

That set point in the first set was unbelievable. Don't know if it was heading out since Mannarino volleyed it, but given Rafa's ability to generate topspin, probably best to try to volley it. His mistake probably was trying to redirect that volley elsewhere.

[@faustocoppi7344]

Oooooooooooooo

[@bryguy0111]

Oh really , did t know Rafa shot may have been out..why did he go back right to Rafa he had the whole court open..men from Boys I guess ..the champions always have that extra level..I do see shape’s form taking Rafa out but who knows anymore lol

[@gregnelson1570]

That last swinging volley of Rafa's made me gasp. Neither me nor Mannarino were expecting him to clobber tf the ball out of the air

[@thomasrebotier1741]

I don't think he tried to direct that ball at all. He has zero time to react it's even amazing he volleyed that ball

[@networth00]

Why did Mannarino hit it right back to Nadal when the whole other side was open? Big mistake and cost him the set.

[@grandpatzer]

That first set tiebreaker might be the very best tiebreaker I’ve ever seen.

[@LiamApilado]

Mannarino is such a lowkey and underrated player. If the majority of viewers knew how low he strings his racket they would get a better sense of what a sweet ball striker he is. And wow we are so blessed to see a competitor such as Nadal. One of the most exciting tiebreaks ever!

[@lartisan6274]

im at 17kg, i want try 13-14 like him

[@peace4myheart]

Even though he ran out of gas after the first set or due to injury, Mannarino is one hell of a player. Of course, part of it has to do with the way Rafa plays. He can make anyone work extra hard. I like his chances against Shapovalov than Zverev, but it will depend on his consistency. Vamos, Nadal. 3 more matches to go.

[@nataliechen8502]

THAT FIRST SET WAS JUST WOW! Seemed like Rafa was playing Djokovic or Federer, Mannarino really put up a fight!

[@RamZar50]

Superb first set lasting 81 minutes. Neither served that well but both stepped it up in the 30-minute tie-break! Rafa just served better in the last two sets. Great battle of the left-handers. Looks like another battle of left-handers coming up in the Quarterfinals: Nadal v Shapovalov…

[@lilylayzell4022]

Rafa refuses to die. His mental tenacity reminds me of Jimmy Connors from years ago, although Rafa is a better player whose physical stamina is just as remarkable as his mental strength. He is an inspiration to watch, especially understanding how many injuries he has suffered and yet does not give up the fight. When I need motivation to endure, I sometimes watch a few sets of Rafa playing one of his great matches without being able to feel his left foot due to injections to deaden the nerves.
