Leylah Fernandez vs Aryna Sabalenka Full Match | 2021 US Open Semifinal

[@yvrkid7070]

Thanks for posting this US OPEN! What a great match. I will never forget Leylah's incredible US OPEN run. Nobody gave her a chance against any of the top 10 players that she beat but she found a way against Osaka, Kerber, Svitolina and Sabalenka. What a fighter.

[@frankiehunter.]

Fernandez had a much harder way to the final than Raducanu. Her opponents were much higher ranked. She is such an exciting player. I do wish her all the best and to fulfil her potential.

[@elles4469]

I love her composure on court. I swear she is more of a professional than most high ranked wta players

[@leecezanne3859]

I agree absolutely. Fernandez took out No. 2, 3, 5 and more in order to get to final. Raducanu was definitely luckier considering Fernandez had to play back-to-back 3 set matches.

[@joestudly9048]

Fernandez ans Raducanu are the future of Tennis

[@sweetandsavoury]

@@leecezanne3859 and don't forget she took out Kerber aswell in the 4th round....all exciting emotionally draining matches

[@joshjones5062]

@@sweetandsavoury Maybe if she played better she would have won in straight sets she was barely making it through some matches.

Thank you US Open for this beautiful Christmas gift

[@MarcyTrinidad]

This was a great match for Leylah! She really showed her potential. Wish she could get back her winning form in the womens singles!

[@timantsons616]

Thank you so much for posting the full match! Excited to see Leylah again in 2022.

[@itsmeforsure5475]

Excellent match and video. I think most players would have folded after Sabalenka blasted her way to a 4-1 lead. Incredible mental toughness by Leylah to stick with it. When Sabalenka is rolling, she is unstopable. The commentator was right, there were alot of points on Sabalenkas racquet in the 1st set.

[@Kev.genZZZ]

I know

[@oldguy8177able]

i love watching her,its like david and goliath,she's the real underdog ,no one rates her,but she has such self belief thats fantastic

[@HOE-rv6ie]

I watched US open because of Leylah Fernandez and Emma Raducanu. They made the games more exciting. 🏆🥰

[@MrBiszkopty]

Now they make social media exciting;D

[@Bumlanchannel6388]

Now they can't be found anywhere in the grandslams final 😂😂😂

[@jiwwyjimmy1046]

That smile. How do you not root for her? Go Leylah! Truly a David vs Goliah match.

[@alexeygureev1864]

1:08:16 these two rallies are my favorite moment of the tournament. Leylah went for drop shot, did well, but Saba won this point and desperately tried to switch the crowd on her side by throwing up both hands in the air. Next rally Leylah goes for another drop shot immidiately, but this time won it and throws up both hands in the air for the crowd like "Aryna, dont't even think about it"

[@jerrylaw788]

The people in the crowd wanted Leylah to win because I heard loud cheers from the people in the crowd in the third set when Sabalenka double faulted twice in a row

[@Andrea-yh3rc]

You just gotta laugh. Great moment

[@marjorjorietillman856]

Richard Williams was deeply criticized how he trained and raised Versus and Serena. And how the girls didn’t join the media in criticizing Richard or each other. And the Media wanted more from them, so they tried to destroy Richard and were very mean to the entire family! Now, so many others are following in his footsteps, but the Williams went through a lot. They pushed the door open wider, and made it easier for others to come through.

[@juaniadanza9197]

Leylah, me encanta tu estilo de juego. La energía, coraje y alegría que irradias. Gracias 🤩

[@marjorjorietillman856]

I never thought I would be wondering if I’d rather have Screamapova back, because Sabalenka decibels are way over the top and getting louder!

[@sadzz_1992]

Awesome. Thank you so much US Open

[@alfredoaquino6515]

Thanks for giving us the full match..

[@LeoNardo-cm6ch]

I watched Aryna Sabalenka so many time. I awed watching her. Aryna Sabalenka is my favorite tennis player forever ❤❤❤❤❤

[@MinhLe-fx9lf]

Sabalenka is always powerful @ the beginning of the match. But falling apart @ the end.

[@piratecat5113]

She became nervous when those 115 mph serves of hers started coming back with interest.😁

[@kmanyguns]

It was exciting to watch her get to the final.

Leylah Fernandez NOT A SINGLE SCREAM IN THE ENTIRE GAME... RESPECT and after beating her she showed that she knows how to scream... 😄

[@AdrianBalansay]

My two favorite players. Leylah is my number #1 but I do love me some Sabalenka!!! Crazy she lost this. Can’t wait to see them play each other more!!!

[@ExplorationSportive]

Cette joueuse est vraiment forte bravo à toi un bel avenir t'attends Leylah Fernandez continue comme sa 😍💪🎾

[@ashenaura]

At this point in time of the Open, Sabalenka was the "Annointed" , the Championship was assumed to be hers.

[@Mel1lvar]

1:54:35. I don't like that by the crowd here, don't boo or clap a fault serve like that, talk about distraction!

[@jlzivi5277]

I love both players. But my Canadian side rooted of course for Leylah during this match.

[@jdcharlie]

Wow. Once upon a time, Leylah could beat Aryna.

[@fatnortherner3198]

The trouble with Sabalenka is she tries to go full tilt all the time

[@isabellasmith8377]

The problem is she is too tense. Doesnt adjust her game and pkays the same all the time. No variety and easy to read just like ostapenko

[@james-vx7nv]

This was such a great match. As a Canadian it was so tense the entire way through. Both played really well, only bad game was the last one where Sabalenka just completely imploded. Two bad double faults and two bad unforced errors handed fernandez victory, all she had to do was put two returns in play all game and that was that. Disappointing end to an otherwise OUTSTANDING semifinal.

[@MrBiszkopty]

The most random US Open ever:D

[@ellenday2155]

[@SimcoeAce]

What a remarkable run by Fernandez. At first this game felt like the shrieking Amazon Sabalenka would run away with it, but little Leylah stuck with it and eventually Sabalenka went to pieces.

[@alfredoaquino6515]

Leyla..the queen of tennis court

[@josephinerabagorabago8328]

Quenn of tennis court?.Really.....

[@eff943]

great match from Leylah, but as for Sabalenka..50 (FIFTY) unforced errors in a semifinal(1:53:47)??? even though i felt bad for her at the end with the crowd cheering her mistakes, still a shocking bottlejob from someone ranked number 2, and is another reason why Emma won the tournament, she simply served, returned and made less unforced errors than everyone else...while Emma serves an ace in the last game to win the final, here Sabalenka's making 2 double faults in a row in the last game to basically hand Leylah the winning set and match...if anything US Open 2021 had the top professionals put to shame by 2 teenagers schooling them in how to keep your calm in the big moments lol

[@dominikwalk980]

So sad to see Sabalenka lose :(

[@LuliVarela91]

5:00 Are you kidding me? What an exchange!

Particularly since she had beaten Leylah before.

[@aniko158marabi9]

I laughed at the emotion shown by sabalenka.😁but it was an exciting match!

[@rzbusa2641]

Sabalinka didn't play smart. The way to play a short person is with kick serves and high arcing ground strokes.

Yes! Go go go Leylah 👏👏👏

[@dongatito8933]

a Fernández le falta un poquito más de altura y sería espectacular ya es una buena deportista tiene solo esa desventaja respecto a las otras tenistas por lo demás es muy habilidosa. Me dió mucha pena que perdiera la final creo q tuvo mucho mérito por las tenistas a las cuales les ganó respecto a su rival final 🥺.Sin desmerecer que la Británica Radukanu es muy buena igualmente

[@tanler7953]

Sabalenka doesn't win a lot of 3 set matches. Her style of play depends on power and power demands a high expenditure of energy. You could see her wilting towards the end.

[@oscargabrielhernandezbauti5574]

Wow Sabalenka didnt scream so loud like now :D

[@boke75]

Why didn't Leylah bring this game to the final against Emma ?

[@gmeadows62]

She played a player who can place the ball anywhere at any time. Emma beating Sakkari, Laya beating Sablenka, proves it's not all about power. Placement is even more important. Emma is a bit smarter on the court. And very much calmer.

[@leorufitolibas5290]

@@gmeadows62 She was just dog-tired greg look at her just dragging her feet otherwise this game could have gone either way.

[@MKarhu05]

Emma had an invisible slight edge - she had beaten Laylah before

[@josephinerabagorabago8328]

LF wants the trophy si much and wants to prove that she can beat Raducannu .In the end she beat herself losing.

[@skatingcanuck9837]

I think Sabalenka grunts to alienate her opponent, but at the same time she alienates her viewers. Two hours plus of grunting is too much for me.

You’re weird for this. She’s a very amiable and likeable player especially now. And she’s currently world number one. Fernandez and her dad are the intimidating bullies if anything
