You can possibly win a grand slam, Masters, ATP Cup, Olympics or whatever, but defeating all three Nadal, Novak, and Federer in a single tournament is something unseen, that what has managed only one man, a great Argentinian Nalbandian!
What's crazy is that after Nalbandian, another great Argentinian player, Del Potro, would become the first man to beat both Nadal and Federer in the same tournament. Hopefully Argentina can produce another giant slayer to fill their shoes
@Ryo Shusuke is Gay Excellent point. You are spot on. He was actually the 4th player to do so after Becker, nalbandian and Djokovic. I completely forgot
Antonis Koutroumanis & FEDERER LOST!!!! HE IS NOT GOOD AGAINST EQUALS!!! HE BETTER THANK NALBANDIAN & SAFIN FOR NOT BEING AS SERIOUS AS RAFA & NOVAK OR ELSE FED WOULDNT EVEN HAVE 10 SLAMS!!!
Partidazo de nalbandian. Que buen jugador es. Sin duda una inspiracion para toda sudamerica. Estoy seguro que este titulo le ayudó mucho a del Potro a ganar su grand slam. Se le extraña al rey david. Saludos desde chile
Nalbandián fue lo que me hizo gustar el tenis sino ni bola le hubiera dado, pero tenía algo especial, algo único. Talento. Al que siempre le costó fue al bombardero Gonzáles el chileno gran jugador y de las mejores drive de la historia del tenis. Saludos
Great highlights for once from ATP! And didn’t give away the outcome! Nalbandian was a thorn in Federer’s side for some time. Too bad he never won a slam.
Awesome match! If Fed had won this, he would have had the greatest single season win/loss ratio. But I’m not that disappointed. Nalbandian was a great player who was able to stick up there with Federer when he wanted to. Kinda like Safin.
De Federer no voy a comentar nada. Sabemos que es el más grande, pero que bueno era Nalbandián. Tenía un Revez buenísimo. Grande el tenista argentino. Saludos desde puerto Montt 🇨🇱
This ranks in my top 2 matches of all time, along with Nadal v Verdasco in the 2009 Aus Open. Nalbandian, absolutely magnificent. So cruel that he couldn't win the Slam he so richly deserved
He is the only one that could compete with Federer in terms of talent since Federer got on the court, not Nadal or Joker. Unfortunately it was wasted. The other two with a bit of less but close talent are Safin and Kyrgios.
I can see that you have put Nalbandian, Safin and Kyrgios together. Great shot makers, but mental midgets vis-a-vis Novak and Nadal. There is absolutely no comparison.
*Prime Nalbandian was a real monster, a perfect tennis player and a mix of Djokovic and Murray.* Nalbandian played against Federer 19 times, with Federer edging out the rivalry 11-8.
A shame Nalbandian didn't took tennis very serious. He only cared about racing, womens and asados. Who can blame him. Argentina wouldn't have another player so exquisite and talented like him.
If If, you never know, maybe he would get tired of tennis if taking it at its highest. You never know. For example, he wins this tournament cause they called him one week before, he was relaxed and played without pressure.
Cómo se extrañan a estos jugadores. David un jugador fuera de serie, que cuando estaba enfocado le pintaba la cara a cualquiera. Federer un tenis espectacular probablemente el mejor de todos los tiempos. Ahora solo dos jugadores me llama la atención ver Djokovic y alcaraz. Y por ser chileno veo a Jarry
If Fed had won this match he would have been 82 and 3 for the year, just one win away from Mcenroe's record of 83 and 3 from 1984. Mac still has that record to this day
The amount of drama in this match is surreal 2 set tie-break Nalbandian coming back from 2 sets to love to take it to 5th Nalbandian destroying Roger- winning 16 games out of 19 from the 3rd set to 4-0 in the fifth Roger comeback from the dead to serve for the match Nalbandian breaking back to force a tie-break and winning it Not sure if any other match ever had the twists and turns like this one. Had it been Rafa or Novak this would have been the greatest match of all time!
Nalbandian is a player that offen gets sidelined by todays brainless fans but what he did in this match is next to Divine Intervention, to be able to get a win on this Federer who at this point is Greatest Player Of All Time, man only lost 4 matches that year and won 81
Not to take away from Nalbandian's performance, but people maybe forgot that Federer was still nursing an ankle injury that forced him to withdraw from most of the indoor tournaments prior to the year-end finals. Imagine how much better his mentality would have been had he not been thinking about playing with an ankle brace or re-aggravating a preexisting injury.

Nalbandian’s backhand was absolutely amazing.
Top 3 ever along with Djokovic and Agassi
Huu Hai Nguyen You couldn’t be further from the truth...
This is tennis from another dimension. Absolutely jaw dropping clean ball striking. So fluid, strategic and precise. Unreal
Faster courts, continuous shotmaking, 5-setters, I really miss this...

David Nalbandian, best double backhand player ever.
Agreed! 100%
This match deserves long extended highlights, not just 6 mins
They already have one lol
@nikolaip5834 now they do...
Great highlights for once from ATP! And didn’t give away the outcome! Nalbandian was a thorn in Federer’s side for some time. Too bad he never won a slam.
What a match..
Nalbandian had a backhand from heaven..
The best player by far without a single slam..
They need to bring back best of 5 for the YEC final. Not everything outside of the GS needs to be best of 3.
Yes Agreed!
No..
Best 8 tournament is not important anymore..
Awesome match! If Fed had won this, he would have had the greatest single season win/loss ratio. But I’m not that disappointed. Nalbandian was a great player who was able to stick up there with Federer when he wanted to. Kinda like Safin.
BTW I’m pretty sure this tournament was played on carpet courts. Would really like for the ATP to bring some of those back!
Nalbandian was the most talented player I ever saw.

Nalbandian was such a bad ass.
I miss these type of players so much
Then you must love kyrgios and bublik lol.
I always imagine that Nalbandian is what Federer would look like if Federer had played with a two-handed backhand
Hubiera ganado mucho más Federer con un revés a dos manos

Best Atp finals final ever!
I remember watching this live. What an incredible match ❤❤
damn.. forgot how good nalbandian was. shame he never won any slam..
He los the final against Hewitt
This was such a higher quality of tennis than anything we got at this year's ATP finals
Now that Torino Master is indoors, I can't imagine someone better than nalby playing there at his prime, such a player 🇦🇷🎾
The match that I fell in love with the game.
Genio, el gran rey David. A puro huevos.
best two handed abckhand ever... no dude about it
El mejor momento de el Argentino.
Tremendo revez
Un maestro.. David...
Roger's Forehand has changed so much!!!
Frederic Dalle forehand was destructive in 2005 , probably the best shot in tennis history
Ertugrul Körpinar Yes, before it was a "flat" shot with so much speed and accuracy, now he gives more spin, but it's still awesome to watch!
Frederic Dalle
FEDERERS FOREHAND WAS ONLY GOOD AGAINST LESSER WEAKER OPPONENTS!!! FEDERER HAS NEVER BEEN GREAT AT ANYTHING BUT CHEATING!

Han pasado 13 años desde esta final, y aún no puedo creer que Federer la haya perdido siendo que estuvo 2 sets arriba, muy mal 👎🏼
Nalbandian se la merecia mucho mas
No le aguanto el ritmo se fundió es los primeros dos set, David lo forzó mucho necesito casi 3 set para recuperar roger
Cómo se extrañan a estos jugadores. David un jugador fuera de serie, que cuando estaba enfocado le pintaba la cara a cualquiera. Federer un tenis espectacular probablemente el mejor de todos los tiempos.

Prime Nalbandian could beat anyone even Alcaraz
What an underachiever
A esquerda de duas mãos mais bonita de todas
Nalbandian was like Agassi on steroids. Mind boggling he never won Slams. Greatest talent I’ve ever seen.
Greatest backhand in my book, because he could hold it to the last minute and just flick it or he could also pound it!
This was a real tennis
This is tennis porn! Two of the greatest shotmakers in history.
The amount of drama in this match is surreal
2 set tie-break
Nalbandian coming back from 2 sets to love to take it to 5th
Nalbandian destroying Roger- winning 16 games out of 19 from the 3rd set to 4-0 in the fifth
Roger comeback from the dead to serve for the match
Nalbandian breaking back to force a tie-break and winning it
Not sure if any other match ever had the twists and turns like this one. Had it been Rafa or Novak this would have been the greatest match of all time!
Too bad he had to win in a Tie Break! His nerves and Roger got him.
One of these guys is retired. The other just won his 99th Basel.
Actually he only won Basel 9 times. He'll need to play until at least 2108 to win it 99 times.
@@Tesla_Death_Ray quick maths

Surfaces and balls are much different don’t forget that though

6min for such a great match is a shame...
0:50 the guy on black shirt, peased off whit the granpa flagging off xD
I don't ever want to hear that this was a "weak era". This is almost prime Federer. Nalbandian would go on to beat all of the big three.
If Fed able to won this match, he would tied McEnroe's 1984 record
Played on carpet.. so sad this surface is completely gone.
lol, shame on him for putting his coach through that 4-0 final set near disaster
If this was best of 3 tournament, federer would have won i straight set.
Was this the last ATP finals on indoor carpet??
Nalbanian was a force
Nalbandian best ❤backhand
Biggest waste of talent tennis ever saw
faster courts make for better tennis.
this was on carpet
Nalbandian is the only guy to beat the great three Fed, Rafa, and Joker in the same tourney. He’s the best to never win a GS.

Imagínate ir perdiendo 2 sets por 7-6 y después darlo vuelta! Para cualquier otro jugador era tirar el 3er set
how Federer did beat this monster who won nothing in his entire career?
BRING BACK CARPET YOU COWARDS
federer killer
How can You resume a 5 sets match into 7 minutes, no sense
Not to take away from Nalbandian's performance, but people maybe forgot that Federer was still nursing an ankle injury that forced him to withdraw from most of the indoor tournaments prior to the year-end finals.

Fatty should have won more.
Delete pls :((
Argentina has no talent tennis player
The best tennis player ever of those who didn't win a GS.
If he cared more about tennis,he would be great.
