Wilander looks like the AC/DC guy here

I thought at the time they both were 100 years old but Wilander was not yet older than 25 and Becker 22.

Thanks so much for uploading, as his (almost definitely) greatest fan it is wonderful, if a bit bitter sweet, to see Mats perform so well and make the semifinal of his favourite grand slam tournament for the last time. The positivity around his victory at the stadium is lovely to see.

Mal wieder tolle Aufnahmen. Ich war damals gerade einmal 5 einhalb Jahre alt und die Tennis Leidenschaft kam bei mir erst Mitte der 90er. Umso schöner diese Klassiker zu sehen. Vielen herzlichen Dank. Ich hoffe du machst schön fleißig weiter. Egal was da noch kommt. Die Vorfreude ist jetzt bereits riesig.

Ich habe damals als jugendlicher Becker-Fan dieses Match leider verpasst und konnte nicht verstehen, wie er gegen Wilander verloren hat, den er Wochen vorher beim Daviscup-Finale noch so dominiert hatte. Er war hier ganz offensichtlich zumindest mental völlig von der Rolle, vor allem bei den Big Points und Breakchancen. Dennoch bzw. deshalb großen Dank für dieses Video und die vielen anderen mit B.Becker!

@stefanfreisberg6971 Жыл бұрын

@Donan777 Ging mir damals genauso. Vielleicht sollten wir bedenken, dass Becker eine sehr harte Nightsession gegen Mecir hinter sich hatte. Und offensichtlich ist er nicht topfit. gerade bei break up im 2. zwei leichte Volleys verlegt, Bälle ohne Not ins aus Und eigentlich immer, wenn Wilander mit RhSlice angreift, kann Becker nicht passieren. Ein Jahr später konnte Becker das Marathonmatch gegen Camporese gut wegstecken und war danach nicht mehr zu stoppen.

@@stefanfreisberg6971 ja, da hast du absolut recht. Vielleicht kennst du es ja noch von früher: Wenn man etwas zu spät den TV einschaltete für ein Becker-Match, sah man es ihm sofort im Gesicht und seiner Körpersprache an, ob es für Becker gut läuft oder nicht. Und bei den AO 1990, in den Spielen gegen Mecir und Wilander, machte Becker einen ziemlich unruhigen, fast schon verzweifelten Eindruck auf mich. Er kann nicht wirklich fit gewesen sein. Und ja, 1991 war er nur durch eine Verletzung im Finale fast zu stoppen. Ich sah es damals live in der Hoffnung, dass es endlich mit der längst verdienten Nr. 1 klappen wird und konnte es nicht glauben, wie er im 1. Satz gegen Lendl von seiner Verletzung so gehandicapt war. Danach spielte er aber sehr souverän und konstant. Schade, dass er sein Potential nicht ganz ausschöpfen konnte, aber es waren dennoch interessante und spannende Jahre mit Boris Becker im TV damals.

@tobiastorres-ly7lb Жыл бұрын

ich habe es damals nicht verstanden. Wilander war nach 1988 kein richtiger Top spieler mehr, hatte einen Teil seiner Motivation verloren. Er hat dann auch in der nächsten Runde gegen Edberg in 3 Sätzen klar verloren. Unverständlich, dass Becker hier so glatt verliert, sein H2H gegen Wilander ist 7-3.

@@Donan777 Als Lendl Fan war Becker eine Katastrophe. Ohne Bobbele wäre Ivan der damalige GOAT geworden. In alle großen Matches (GS, Semifinals und besser) hat er Lendl geschlagen.

@Donan777 11 ай бұрын

@@ostihpem ja, Lendl war gegen Boris relativ oft auch verkrampft bei den Big Points. Nach dem Sieg bei den US Open 1992 gegen Becker war Lendl anzumerken, wie sehr er unter den vielen Niederlagen bei Grand Slams gelitten haben muss. Es war einfach der Gegner von Boris, den man als Fan gern verlieren sah. ;-) Im Gegensatz dazu war Edberg ja immer sympathisch. Lendl hat Becker in ihren ersten beiden Master Finals aber schmerzhafte Niederlagen beigefügt, vor allem 1986.

This was definitely a stunning result... after the dismal year Wilander had in 1989 (in contrast to his stupendous 1988), he didn't look like he was mentally in the tennis world anymore... and then he did this, wow! Straight-setting Becker anywhere was no easy feat. Especially after the imperial form Becker was in at the end of 1989...

Le dernier grand match de Mats Wilander avant sa fessée face à Edberg en demi. Il disparaîtra de toute la saison 1990 avant un dernier titre à Itaparica en novembre (33ème). Pathétique fin de carrière pour un trés grand tacticien
