Matteo will face Rafael Nadal and the least we can say is that he approaches this duel with a big notion of pleasure. An approach that risks allowing him to play his best tennis. With his short line, Matteo can obviously do more than hinder the Mallorcan.
“After two and a half years, playing again against someone who needs no introduction is great. I’ve seen him so many times in this tournament and others, I cheer for them all the time too. So facing him in the semi-finals on the Rod Laver is something I dreamed of when I was a kid. That said, now I really want to win this game. I know I can do it. It’s going to be very difficult. But I’m in the semi-finals of a Grand Slam for the third time, and that means I have the level to do it. I want to go further. »
