In Friday’s quarter-final, Rafa will play either Stan Wawrinka or Dominic Thiem.
Thank god for sky plus or I would have missed this great win,let’s see more of this Rafa,it was a brilliant performance, well done ,vamos Rafa ,confidence boost ,
My greatest fear now for Rafa is the human destroyer called the Djoker.
He is somewhere out there, lurking in the dark …….. waiting for Rafa……in the final.
Let us ignore ” that man ” and focus on our great champion . Great performance to day v Isner . Our champion is the best , most popular and most gracious. Vamos Rafaaaaa.
