Watched the semifinal of the ATP World Tour Finals event last night on TV. A fantastic match between the two legend players of tennis. A very interesting combat between Nadal and Murray lasted to the very last serve resulting the victory of Nedal 7-3, 3-6 and 7-6.
The Spaniard will face Roger Federer or Novak Djokovic in Sunday's final at the O2 Arena. Murry, on his home ground, displayed beautiful game of tennis with quick serves and intelligent lifts. Critiques say that Murry has missed the golden chance to uplift his world rankings by loosing this match, resulting the lost opportunity to play for the finals of ATP World Tour Finals event. on the other hand after winning a neck to neck first set (7-3_ was outclassed in the second set (3-6) by his opponent. Nedal regained his confidence by reaching the last set on the points 5-3 but Murray did not left the battle and made the table 6-6 at one point. 
Nadal showing a great sportsman spirit commended his opponent, "I think it was an incredible tennis match," Nadal told reporters. "I am very happy to beat a great champion like Andy. For me it's an amazing victory. His level is unbelievable." "I kind of knew when I was out there that it was a great match," Murray, who will end the year fourth in the rankings, told reporters. "The noise the crowd made when we changed ends at 6-6 in the (third set) tiebreak was pretty incredible. It's nice in some ways to be involved in matches like that. But it's not nice losing them."
Overall a great match of tennis displayed. I am in high hope to see a great game too in the second semi between Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.
