In full preparation for Wimbledon, Novak Djokovic took a trip to Munich to encourage his Serbian compatriots during their third Euro match against Denmark on Tuesday evening. The world number 2 in the world tennis rankings was even present on the sidelines during the warm-up, and greeted, one by one, the Serbian players as they returned to the locker room. He then appeared alongside the Serbian staff before reaching the stands, with a jersey of his selection on his shoulders.
An unusual scene, while access to the field is very strictly regulated for this type of competition. Djokovic then had a photo session with some supporters who were undoubtedly surprised to see him in this configuration. This present is all the stranger since “Nole” published, five hours earlier, a photo of him training to prepare for Wimbledon. Six days before the start of the tournament, July 1, he has still not formalized his participation. As a reminder, he injured his knee during the last Roland-Garros.
Despite the presence of their talisman, the Serbs were held in check (0-0) at the break by Denmark and are currently eliminated from the Euro.
The meeting can be followed live with commentary on the Le Parisien website.
