This is incredible.. please keep posting these underrated matches. 10/10 edit. Well done I remember this day 13 years ago. It was Friday and we had probably one of the best semi finals ever. Soderling Gonzalez/ Federer Del Potro. 4 icons of aggressive tennis playing on biggest stage of clay. And they delivered. 2 Roller Coasters. I think 2012 Aus open had incredible semi-finals and if I wasn't mistaken it was in 2 days semi final each day. Which made RG 2009 semi-finals even more special. Now I'm going to search for Delpo Federer thanks to you :)
Even better, two classic 5 setters and it all ended before 9PM which was hugely important as FO had no lights back in 2009. The crowd really got their moneys worth that day. Probably one of the best slam semifinal days in tennis history! Soderling really deserved one FO title but got outplayed big time in both finals that he reached despite beating the defending champion along the way both times.
Absolutely one of the greatest matches in RG history! Both players have powerful shots and vehement temper! Gonzalez’ red earthen butt brought joy to the audience 😹
Gonzo was close to winning this match! Bad calling from the umpire/linespeople. What’s the purpose of calling over the linesperson when, as the umpire, can overrule it! Great match between these two though.
Where was Gonzalez's forehand during this match? really looked like he was struggling to get the speed or depth on it he usually does. Normally when it goes to his forehand he hits a winner 😂 Can anyone explain? he pushed it to 5 sets even so, sounds like because of his serve, and surprisingly good backhand on the day
por estos partido es que fernando se calienta y termina jugando mal, los jueces de silla o de linea quieren ser figuras y solo terminan perjudicando, Soderling tambien le tuvieron jodiendo con algunos puntos
Gonzo used too much slice backhand for his own good; if his backhand was as good as forehand, and better mental calm- he could have won several majors. Spanish underachievers are always fun: Nalbandian, Gonzo, Rios, Verdasco
Es comprensible , su país no le ha ganado a nadie.. en ningúna disciplina importante o relevante en otras palabras NO EXISTEN ...Chile posee una tradición tenistica de jerarquía mundial a pesar de ser un diminuto páis .Lo siento pe , comprendo tu frustración .Pero exuda tu envidia en los dirigentes deportivos de tú subdesarrollado país.
@@fabianorossi77 la verdad no, porque uno de mis jugadores favoritos de todos los tiempos es el Chino Rios. Nicolás Massu también me parecía muy bueno. Así de varios países. Que tú seas un pobre tonto que no acepta que simplemente no me gusta un jugador independientemente de si es de Chile, no es mi tema. Hazte ver 🤣
Gonzalez was one of the most entertaining tennis player to watch
Such a great match! Finally the snow is going down where I live and I can't wait to play some tennis! Great quality content as usual Wivo :)
This match was an absolute battle thank you so much for uploading it

Thank you so much for the kind words
The 4 hardest forehands in tennis history

Fabulous amazing choice great taste as well, what a match!!! many thanks.
Great match between two great players.
This channel has the best intro ever!!
Thank you ❤️
EL COVID NO ME PUEDE MATAR, PORQUE YO MORI ESE DIA...
Simply beautiful. Thanks!
Thank you too!
Great match from Gonzalez!

Partido de bombazos!
Gonzalez had an amazing comeback coming from two sets down against Wawrinka on Roland Garros 2008, do you have that one?
Might wanna check that out! Thank you ❤️
Coolest intro on YT💪🏻
Thanks ❤️
Lad, the intro itself is the hardest😂👏
Hasta 4-1 del 5° set gran partido de González. De ahí en adelante Soderling fue una aplanadora.
Damn, what a match..
Swedish power! Great vid as usual
Gonzo was close to winning this match! Bad calling from the umpire/linespeople. What’s the purpose of calling over the linesperson when, as the umpire, can overrule it! Great match between these two though.
i dindt remembered gonzales when semi final omg
22 aces by Gonzales? Fantastic!
Las pelotas de tenis después de ese partido quedaron quemadas .
Es como una pelea de Box entre dos knockeadores
That "hardest forehand" could not make up for the "softest backhand"
this wasn't the only time they played in a slam, they met in the 2004 us open, which soderling won in four sets
7:46 Dice clarito "Conchatumare weon"

Probably hitting it too spinny
Cecchinato's face is the same as Gonzalez's
Gonzalez sounds like a cartoon character when he hits the ball
Gonzo should've won this match
Hahaha good vídeo
What a weird camera angle. Must be french open 2011 !
This was 2009
Fergo and Roberling
Pure comedy at 19:15
ياريت تعرفنا اختفو ليه عن الانظار خصوصا سودرلينج
سودرلينج اعتزل بسبب مرض جاله.. وجونزاليس اعتزل عشان كبر فالسن.

Soderling leaving tennis helped the sport and it's reputation
How so?
bro you dindt showd the break on 5-5 second set
The entire second set wasn't shown on any live TV channel other than some Japanese channel that only had the points shown here.
@@WivoRN ty bro. great match!
@@WivoRN ¿How can be possible?
The broadcast was cut off but I have no idea why, the English commentator was talking about it before the 3rd set began
tony parker and eva longoria ;(
Glad that Gonzales lost after all those antics lol.
מה הוא רוצה מדווידנקו?
Soderling forehand has to be one of the ugliest yet most dangerous forehand ever! like ew!

Nunca me gustó González la verdad
Quieres un hijo de él?
esta bien
